How to use them

  1. Copy the setup block for the quick-start codes or a category below into your conversation.
  2. Put the code before your request.
  3. Include the text, file, options, or context the task needs.
  4. Replace placeholders with your own details. The shortcuts do not grant access to files, tools, or sources.
  5. In a new conversation, paste the relevant setup block again.

Set up the quick-start codes

For this conversation, interpret these labels as custom prompt shortcuts:
/eli5: Explain simply, as if to a five-year-old, using a familiar analogy without distorting the facts.
/resume: Summarize the supplied text into five short bullets. This shortcut means summarize, not write a CV.
/examples: Give three concrete examples that make the topic easy to understand.
/stepbystep: Break the task into numbered, practical steps.
/compare: Compare the options in a table using relevant criteria and explain which suits each use case.
Apply the shortcut to the request that follows it. Ask if essential context is missing. Do not invent facts or claim to have used tools or sources you did not use.
