What it does
This prompt asks the AI to help you design a simple, repeatable decision filter for evaluating new options or opportunities against your long-term goals so you can stay focused. It guides you to clarify your priorities, define objective criteria (e.g., goal alignment, impact, time cost, opportunity cost, and timing), and produce a checklist or scoring rubric you can apply quickly whenever a distraction appears. The outcome is a practical framework—often including rules for when to say yes/no, a short set of questions to ask, and a process for parking ideas—that reduces impulsive pivots and keeps your time and energy aligned with what matters most.

How to run
Step 1: Collect inputs
First, run and filter to to discover valid models and available options:
Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.
Then collect all inputs from the human:
- Required text inputs:
- Optional: model and options.
- Present the human with the default model and its available options. Look up in the output (filtered to modality ) and show its as: . Mark a value if it matches these defaults: .
- If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model , options . Other models from the resources call are also available.
If any required text input is missing, ask the human for what's missing. Do not assume or fabricate values.
Step 2: Run via BetterPrompt CLI
Use the frontmatter's as the positional argument (for this skill, use ).
Command form:
Notes:
- Pass each text input as a separate flag.
- If the human does not mention a model, omit and BetterPrompt will use the default model: .
- If the human does not mention options, omit and BetterPrompt will use the default options: .
- If the run times out, the response will include a you can use to fetch the result later.
