Prompt ContentSave

🌐
Run the three in order, pasting each result into the next. STEP 1 - Draft Write a first draft of: [WHAT YOU NEED - email, post, plan, etc.]. Constraints: [TONE, LENGTH, AUDIENCE]. Just get a complete draft down. Do not polish or second-guess yet - I want raw material to work with. STEP 2 - Critique Switch roles. You are now a tough reviewer seeing the draft above for the first time. - Name the 3 weakest things, most important first. - Flag anything generic, unclear, or unsupported. - Say what is missing. Do not rewrite it. Critique only - be blunt. STEP 3 - Finalize Now rewrite the draft, fixing every point from the critique. - Keep what was already working. - Address each weakness specifically. - Give me the final version only, polished.
