[0:00]Hedge this is Liam in forbear. This film explains how to submit a humanitarian's AI renewal request. Write a short markdown report in your own fellows folder. Show completed work actual weekly hours and direct evidence links. Email the report link to both HR at humanitarians.aii and bear humanitarians.aii. The trap is expecting the reviewer to reconstruct your work. Why should you care? Professor Bear is very busy. He must be able to find the evidence easily and he will not go hunting for it. A folder full of files does not explain what you did. Writing a clear, verifiable report is part of your job as a fellow. How do I make my renewal request easy to verify? The original question focuses on the request. The useful question focuses on what the reviewer can actually verify. Two useful terms, markdown, plain text that GitHub displays with headings and links. Frictional log, a dated record of attempts, obstacles, decisions, and learning. Example fellow has a folder

Full of material yet the renewal message says only please extend my letter my work is on GitHub what can bear actually verify from that the work may exist but the request has handed him the job of finding and explaining it let's follow one claim I prepared an explainer about plug-in components open the specific beat sheet that establishes a script and production plan not a finished film now look for the playable video example fellow has no viewing link so the report must say that the video evidence is missing Now change the claim to hours. The example lists 20 hours for each of four weeks. Those figures are fictional teaching data. A real fellow records actual dates, tasks, and time and connects the record to work. A video cannot prove 20 hours, and a monthly average can conceal a short week. The tempting fix is adding more links, a playlist, a repository, another folder. Watch the search spread out. None of those tells Bear

Which result to inspect. Adding destinations does not repair the missing connection between a claim and its evidence, but the exact item beside the claim it supports. What if we arrange the same material around three questions? What did you finish? What hours are documented? What evidence can I open? The report gives each claim its own destination before the paths connect. Predict which row must stay unresolved when there is no playable video. Watch the scattered evidence move beside its claim while the missing video stays visibly unresolved. That arrangement is the executive summary. Enough context to understand the work and enough evidence to check it. Add your project and group. Current agreement, end date, requested dates, two or three results, and next deliverables. Save the request as markdown inside your own fellows folder. The report is your responsibility. Return to the original request. Email the markdown report link to both HR at humanitarians.i and Barrett humanitarians.i I before your agreement expires Monday to Wednesday during

Business hours. Renewals require approval. Agreements are not backdated. Bear can open the evidence without searching. Document 20 or more qualifying hours for postcomp completion OPT, but hours alone do not establish full compliance. Individual requirements go to your school's international office. Let's recap with claude. Markdown report in your own fellows folder. Actual weekly hours in your contribution. Direct videos, logs, and work evidence. Missing evidence stays visible. Professor Bear is very busy. The fellow writes the clear report. The reviewer should not have to hunt. Your turn. Paste this into Claude. Review my fellowship renewal draft and evidence links. Identify claims with no direct support, missing weekly hours, and inaccessible videos. Suggest a concise markdown report for my fellows folder. Do not invent hours, results, links, or approvals. Then open every link yourself. The useful answer identifies gaps. It does not manufacture a convincing history. Keep your own judgment in the loop.
