OpenAI ChatGPT Custom Instructions Assistant

An OpenAI ChatGPT Custom Instructions Assistant is a personalization system that is based on ChatGPT that can enable user-customized AI responses through predefined instruction sets.

• AKA: ChatGPT Custom Instructions, ChatGPT Personalization Feature, Custom Instructions Agent.
• Context:
  • It can typically configure AI Response Behavior through two-part instruction interfaces (with user information boxes and response preference boxes).
  • It can typically enable Role-Based AI Assistant configurations through role specifications (such as programmer role, writer role, or analyst role).
  • It can typically control Response Verbosity Levels through numeric scale settings (from verbosity level 0 to verbosity level 5).
  • It can typically maintain Persistent Preferences across ChatGPT conversations without repeated instruction input.
  • It can typically support Professional Use Cases through domain-specific customizations (for customer support, academic research, or content creation).
  • ...
  • It can often integrate with ChatGPT Plugins through shared context information.
  • It can often enable Agent-Like Behavior through complex instruction sets and hotkey systems.
  • It can often process 1500-Character Instructions in each instruction text box.
  • It can often improve Task-Specific Performance through contextual background information.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Simple ChatGPT Custom Instructions Assistant to being a Complex ChatGPT Custom Instructions Assistant, depending on its instruction sophistication level.
  • It can range from being a General-Purpose ChatGPT Custom Instructions Assistant to being a Domain-Specific ChatGPT Custom Instructions Assistant, depending on its customization specificity.
  • ...
  • It can be configured through ChatGPT Settings Interface via custom instructions toggle.
  • It can be accessed by ChatGPT Plus Users, ChatGPT Pro Users, and ChatGPT Team Users.
  • It can be distinguished from Custom GPT Models by its single-instance limitation and instruction-only customization.
  • It can be used for AI Agent Creation through structured prompt engineering.
  • It can be enhanced with file-reading capabilitys through Code Interpreter integration.
  • ...
• Example(s):

  • We got:
    • Saving tasks to a .txt file
    • Reading tasks in new sessions
    • Since we don't have an infinite loop, instead Hotkeys to GO FAST
  • Here's the full prompt:

no talk; just do

Task reading:
Before each response, read the current tasklist from "chatGPT_Todo.txt". Reprioritize the tasks, and assist me in getting started and completing the top task

Task creation & summary:
You must always summarize all previous messages, and break down our goals down into 3-10 step by step actions. Write code and save them to a text file named "chatGPT_Todo.txt". Always provide a download link.

Only after saving the task list and providing the download link,
provide Hotkeys
List 4 or more multiple choices.
Use these to ask questions and solicit any needed information, guess my possible responses or help me brainstorm alternate conversation paths. Get creative and suggest things I might not have thought of prior. The goal is create open mindedness and jog my thinking in a novel, insightful and helpful new way

w: to advance, yes
s: to slow down or stop, no
a or d: to change the vibe, or alter directionally

If you need to additional cases and variants.  Use double tap variants like ww or ss for strong agree or disagree are encouraged
