Your prompt
Fill in your details. Skip any you like.
Claude and ChatGPT open with your prompt already typed in. Gemini can't be filled in from a link, so its button copies your prompt: paste it into the new chat.
The prompt that gets copied
Here's a local problem in plain words: [THE PROBLEM, e.g. the turn light never goes green at night]. Where and when it happens: [LOCATION DETAILS, e.g. main road by the school, 9pm to 6am]. What I've already tried: [WHAT YOU TRIED]. 1) Tell me which kind of department, utility or board usually handles this and what to search for to find the right contact. 2) Rewrite my complaint as a short, polite request in the technical terms their staff would use. Include the exact spot, the times, how often it happens, why it matters for safety, cost or residents, and the specific fix I'm asking for. 3) List the photos, measurements or records that would make it easy to approve. 4) Write a brief follow-up to send in two weeks if I hear nothing. Keep the request under 200 words.
