Add the details your task needs

Step 1 of 6

Give the task some context

What does the helper need to know?

Context means the details around your task. A request can leave out a detail that matters. A reminder may need a day and place. A list may need items and counts.

Start with the result you want. Then choose the details it needs. The full made-up sample here works without opening ChatGPT.

You can start with a few plain notes.

Let the task guide you

There is no set number of details.

Include a detail if it helps with this task. Do not drop a needed fact just to keep the ask short. Leave out unrelated notes.

A relevant fact may still be private. Review your notes before sharing them or putting them in this practice box. Use made-up details for practice.
