Reply to this in one line
A message that needs answering, not a thread that needs extending.
Reply to this in one sentence. Answer the question, name the next step, stop.
Making it yours
- Paste your own material where the prompt asks for it. Everything above that line is instruction, not content.
- Delete any rule that does not apply to you. A shorter prompt that fits beats a thorough one that does not.
- If the answer comes back vague, add a line saying what you do not want. Constraints work better than encouragement.
Drafts and replies. Turning notes, long drafts and tangled threads into something short enough to read.
