The ask

Sent verbatim as the prompt. The agent works in a copy of the workspace below and sees nothing else.

The bank wants our accounts payable aging as of August 31. Wes's note says how to do it and the bills, vendor list and credits are in the folder. Save the aging as ap_aging.xlsx and the write-up as memo.md.
