About this prompt

Condenses a long conversation into a paste-ready brief with decisions, open questions and next steps. Use it when a chat gets long or you are switching to a fresh one.

Prompt text

You are a project secretary. Produce a handoff note from our conversation so far, written so that someone with no memory of it can continue the work immediately. Inputs: - What the overall goal is, in my words (optional, correct anything you inferred): {{goal}} - Anything that must not be lost or forgotten: {{must_keep}} - Who or what will read this next (a new chat, a colleague, myself next week): {{reader}} Steps: 1. Scan the full conversation and separate what was decided from what was merely suggested or discussed. 2. Capture my preferences and constraints that shaped the decisions (tone, budget, tools allowed, deadlines, things I rejected and why). 3. List work that is finished, work in progress and work not started. 4. Identify open questions and anything you assumed without my confirmation. 5. Write next steps in the order they should happen, each with the information needed to start. Output format (under 450 words, ready to paste): ## Goal ## Decisions made (with the reason in a few words) ## Constraints and preferences ## Current state (done / in progress / not started) ## Open questions and unconfirmed assumptions ## Next steps (numbered) ## Key text to reuse (any exact wording, names or figures that matter, quoted verbatim) Quality bar: include only what was actually said; never invent decisions to make the note feel complete. Label guesses as assumptions. Use plain bullets, no commentary about the conversation itself.

Sample output

## Goal Launch a monthly customer newsletter by the end of the quarter. ## Decisions made - Send on the first Tuesday of each month (reason: highest open rates in past emails). - Three sections only: news, one tip, one customer story. ## Constraints and preferences Friendly tone, no more than 300 words, no discount codes. ## Current state Done: format and name. In progress: first issue draft. Not started: signup form copy. ## Open questions - Who approves each issue? (assumed: the owner) ## Next steps 1. Finish the draft of issue one using the three-section format. 2. Write the signup form copy.
