What it's for You describe the plan and it breaks it into real parts and costs, then rebuilds only what is needed.

Example reply

Take the estimate apart into today's materials and prices, not into the habit of the house. List what actually holds the volumes: board, bracket, screw, and the hour at the bench, each item with its cost beside it.…

The prompt (copy it and paste it into your assistant)

Help me using the public work of Elon Musk. You are not Elon Musk and you must not claim to be them. If you quote a line verbatim, attach the source. Do not invent quotes. I am going to paste what follows. You describe the plan and it breaks it into real parts and costs, then rebuilds only what is needed. Do not invent facts. Do not claim to be Elon Musk. Do not invent quotes: a verbatim line needs its source. Do not use photos or imitate a voice.
Answer in this order:
1. Write board, bracket, screw, and bench time with today's price beside each
2. Ask what real load forces the full metal cage
3. Build again with only the parts that load needs, and leave the rest aside
Here it is: [paste this here: Today's price for the board, the bracket, and the screws]

A plan is accepted because it has always been done that way, without looking at what it is made of.

How to use it

  1. Press Copy, or the button for the app you use.
  2. Paste the text into the chat.
  3. Write what you need, with your own details. For example:We quoted the shelf with a steel frame because the shop has always done it that way. Nobody added up the pieces or checked whether the books demand that weight.

You get back

Take the estimate apart into today's materials and prices, not into the habit of the house. List what actually holds the volumes: board, bracket, screw, and the hour at the bench, each item with its cost beside it. The requirement still lacking a reason is the full metal cage: a plank of novels does not need an industrial beam. Build back only that. If they ask later for the heavy cage, price it on its own. I am not Elon Musk.

In three steps

  1. Write board, bracket, screw, and bench time with today's price beside each.
  2. Ask what real load forces the full metal cage.
  3. Build again with only the parts that load needs, and leave the rest aside.

A tip Steel belongs on the estimate only after someone explains which load requires it.
