The prompt (copy it and paste it into your assistant)
Help me match this statement against my book. I keep the accounts and you only point out differences. Make two lists: movements that are on the statement and not in the book, and movements that are in the book and not on the statement. Do not tell me how to record them and do not move anything. If a line has no date or description, copy it anyway and mark what is missing. This does not replace the person who keeps your books. Statement and book: [paste both lists here]

The statement has a supermarket charge on Monday. In the book that Monday I only wrote the power bill.
On the statement and not in the book - Supermarket charge, Monday. In the book and not on the statement - Power bill, Monday. I am not telling you which account to use. This stays with you so you can correct it before anyone else sees it. I did not send it.
