A blank page asks you to choose the content, structure and tone at the same time. A draft can separate those choices. Start with the audience, the piece you need and one real example. You can then check the wording without having to invent the whole structure first.
For feedback & critique, start by describing the part that is awkward in your own words. A broad goal can contain several different tasks. Choose the one you want to draft now, then add the obstacle and the time you can spend. You do not need a complete story to begin.
You can skip a question that does not fit. An unanswered detail should stay unknown. If you want a different tone, choose Plain English or change your own description before using the draft. The structure comes from the topic; the facts should come from you.

What good looks like
Read each draft aloud if that helps. Check that it says what you mean, uses only facts you supplied and leaves out claims you cannot support. A polished sentence is not necessarily the right sentence. Change anything that does not sound like you before copying it elsewhere.
For “Adversarial reader setup”, the reviewer prompts gives you a piece to read and adapt. Check it against your answers, mark anything that needs a fact you have not supplied and decide whether it is the next piece you actually need. Keep only what fits your situation.

Adversarial reader setup
You get a set of ready-to-paste prompts for adversarial reader setup; each one already includes your goal, so you only fill in today's detail. Because time is the pinch, the reviewer prompts is built to be used in short sittings: AI drafts adversarial reader setup first, and you spend your minutes correcting rather than starting from blank. Because you also named not sure where to start, it starts with one clear question. Plan to have a first version in place this month and review it once.
My goal: Make steady progress without it taking over my week. I want help with adversarial reader setup. What gets in my way: not enough time and not sure where to start. I have about 60 minutes a week and want a first result this month. Ask me up to three questions first, then give me one concrete next step I can finish in 20 minutes.
This example uses made-up answers (goal: steady progress; obstacles: time and knowing where to start). Yours is built from your own answers.
What we'll ask you
- Who gives you feedback now?
- What kind of feedback helps you most?
- Share a piece or describe one you want critiqued (optional).
Questions
What should I tell it before asking for a draft?
Give the purpose, intended audience, tone and one example from your own situation. You can skip details you do not want to share. The standard plan uses the answers available; a missing answer is not permission to invent facts.
Can I change the wording?
Yes. Treat the text as a draft, not a final decision. Read it, correct the details and keep the parts that fit. You can choose Plain English and supply a different example when the first wording does not reflect what you meant.
Do I need a card or every answer?
No card is needed for the standard plan. Every area is available, and you can skip questions. Begin with the piece you want to work on rather than sharing information simply to fill a box. Voice options depend on your browser.
