ChatGPT App 101

I want help with this goal:
[DESCRIBE THE GOAL]

Before answering, ask up to three clarifying questions only if they would materially improve the result.

Then give me:
1. A simple first answer
2. Any assumptions you made
3. A better follow-up prompt I can use next

Turn these rough notes into a clear ChatGPT request:

[PASTE NOTES]

Output:
1. The cleaned-up prompt
2. The missing context I should add
3. The best output format to request
4. A shorter version I can send from my phone

Help me choose the right ChatGPT feature for this task:
[DESCRIBE TASK]

Compare these options:
- Normal chat
- Uploaded files or File Library, where available
- Canvas
- Web search
- Connected apps or connectors, if enabled
- ChatGPT agent, if available on my plan

For each option, tell me when to use it, when to avoid it, and what prompt to start with.

I want to use memory or custom instructions safely for this kind of work:
[DESCRIBE WORK]

Help me decide:
1. What information is useful for ChatGPT to remember
2. What should stay out of memory
3. What belongs in custom instructions instead
4. What I should review or delete if it becomes outdated

Keep the recommendations privacy-aware and beginner-friendly.

I want to set up a ChatGPT Project for:
[PROJECT NAME AND GOAL]

Help me create:
1. Project instructions
2. A short description of the work
3. A list of files or references to add
4. A first prompt to start the project
5. A safety note for anything ChatGPT should not assume

Use the uploaded or selected files as the source of truth.

Please produce:
1. A plain-English summary
2. Key facts, dates, names, and numbers
3. Open questions or unclear parts
4. Action items
5. A list of claims that should be verified before I rely on them

Do not invent details that are not in the files.

I need:
1. What changed between them
2. Conflicts or contradictions
3. Decisions I need to make
4. A prioritized action list

Requirements:

2. Add inline comments where I need to decide something
3. After the draft, suggest three focused edits I can ask for next
4. Do not finalize the tone until I approve the direction

Improve this writing without changing the meaning:

[PASTE TEXT]

Make it:
- Clearer
- More direct
- Easier to scan
- Still in my voice

After the rewrite, list the top three changes you made and why.

Analyze this spreadsheet or dataset.

First, inspect the columns and tell me what each one appears to mean.

2. Notable patterns
3. Possible errors or missing values
4. Three useful charts or tables to create
5. One practical recommendation based only on the data

2. Style and composition notes
3. Text that should or should not appear in the image
4. A version for a professional/business context
