Submit what the user is going through, to find someone living through something similar. Write the match request from the current conversation. Write 2–5 sentences in the third person, and 200–1500 characters. Use the words of the user, not formal or clinical words. Cover three things: the situation, where the user is in it, and what help they want. Write it so that a stranger in the same place recognizes themselves. Any situation belongs here: an illness, a company, a move, a course, a hard year. Example of a good match request: "She was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer four months ago and is halfway through chemotherapy. The medical side goes to plan. She finds the isolation harder than the treatment. The people around her keep telling her to stay positive. She hopes to hear from someone at a similar stage who understands the day-to-day of it." Never invent a detail. Never include a name, an email address, an employer or another personal identifier. This call creates a new independent DRAFT. It replaces nothing in the pool. The draft stays saved until the user approves it, revises it or discards it. Show the stored match request back to the user VERBATIM. Then ask the user to approve it, or to tell you what to change. Call confirm_match_request with the request_id only after the user approves that exact version. If the user asks for a change, call create_match_request again. Pass the complete new draft, and set replaces_draft_id to the earlier request_id. Then show the new stored version and ask again. If the user declines, call withdraw_match_request with that request_id to discard the draft.
