WorkBuddy Requirement List: Columns Keep Shifting—Is My Input Too Messy?

I came across a weekly retrospective from an AI product manager, and one line stuck with me: errors are data, not the enemy. After reading it I thought, then that prompt I ran into these past two days probably counts as data too.

I've used WorkBuddy for two months, but I've basically locked it into automated weekly reports — every Friday I have it stitch together the pile of weekly reports in WeCom docs, which is very convenient. Recently I wanted to take it a step further. I have this thing on hand: every week after the product review meeting, the meeting notes, requirement pool screenshots, and a few competitor PDFs are all scattered in one folder. I want it to summarize them into a requirement priority table — who's responsible, what status, roughly when it's needed, all at a glance. That way on Monday I don't have to manually cross-check everything again.

The first time, I just threw the folder in and said "organize into a table." What came out was indeed a table, but the columns were misaligned — the owner column ended up under status, and there were three or four empty rows. I figured the files were too messy, so I standardized the filenames, added date prefixes, and ran it again. This time it was better, the row count matched, but all the headers turned into English — it didn't recognize my Chinese column names — and it popped up a prompt, roughly saying it didn't detect a header structure and suggested adjusting the format.

I adjusted it, but couldn't figure it out. I think maybe it's because the types of things I gave it were too varied — images, PDFs, Word all mixed together — and it didn't know which to go by. Or maybe my instruction was too vague; "organize into a table" — those five words — if it were me, I wouldn't know what kind of table to organize into either.

So I'm asking: has anyone used WorkBuddy for something similar? Do I need to give it an empty template first, lock down the column names, and then have it fill them in? Or should I split it up and feed it only one type of file at a time? I'm planning to try again these next two days, starting with only Word files, to see if I'm overthinking it.
