Description:

This Master Prompt integrates the complete Root Cause Analysis workflow into a coherent, evidence-based, transparent and actionable investigation. It guides researchers in connecting problem definition, evidence collection, event reconstruction, anomaly characterization, causal-factor identification, classical RCA tools, engineering failure mechanisms, human and organizational influences, quantitative analysis, AI-assisted diagnosis, multimodal evidence and causal validation into a single defensible explanation of why an undesirable event occurred.
