Handy viewer cheat sheet (copy/paste prompts) 📋✨

“Give me a 3-step bot-stacking plan for [task]. Step 1 should brainstorm, Step 2 should refine, Step 3 should check for gaps and risks.”

3) Safety/verification prompt

“List what you’re uncertain about. Then give me a 5-step checklist to verify the important points before I share this.”
