How to use these codes

Paste one code at the start, middle, or end of your prompt. These are simple prompt shortcuts that tell ChatGPT how to shape the answer.

Formula · Example

/CODE + your request · `/HUMAN Write an Instagram caption for this video`

Your request + /CODE · `Rewrite this email /PRO`

/CODE + pasted text · `/FIX Paste your messy text here`

Important: these are custom prompt shortcuts. They are not official ChatGPT system commands. They work because you are giving clear instructions inside your prompt.
