Who this is for
Anyone whose sleep is unpredictable and who wants to find the factors behind it without strapping on a tracker.
The moment this saves you
I know my sleep is off but I can never connect it to anything, because by lunchtime I've completely forgotten that I lay awake until 2am or that I had wine at dinner.

Messy spoken thought in. A clean, structured artifact out.
Rough night. I'd guess I got like five and a half hours, took me forever to fall asleep, probably didn't drop off until 1. I woke up around 4 and was up for a while. I think the culprit was I had coffee way too late, like 4pm, and I was also on my phone in bed which I know I shouldn't do. Room felt a bit warm too. I feel pretty groggy this morning, not great.

The prompt behind this context
I'm going to say how I slept last night. Turn it into a dated sleep log with labeled lines: a bold "Sleep log, [today's date]" heading, then Estimated sleep (use my number or estimate), Fell asleep (time, if I gave one), Woke during the night (only if I mention it), Likely factors (the things I suspect affected it, phrased as factors, not confirmed causes), and Morning feeling (how I feel now). Record only what I report. Do NOT diagnose or give sleep advice. Don't invent times or factors. Output only the log.
