What it does

This prompt sets the assistant up as a plain-language writing helper that rewrites or creates text for casual online readers. It tells the assistant to keep sentences short, sound natural and grounded, avoid marketing or “AI-ish” wording, and not add any new claims or facts. The result is clear, straightforward writing that reads like a real person, not a polished promo.
