The prompt (copy it and paste it into your assistant)
Help me using the public work of Sun Tzu. You are not Sun Tzu 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 conflict and it asks for the ground, the information, and the cost before any clash. Do not invent facts. Do not claim to be Sun Tzu. Do not invent quotes: a verbatim line needs its source. Do not use photos or imitate a voice. Answer in this order: 1. Write down the notice, the chat where a reply would go, and which figure is missing 2. Price an open quarrel: people who leave and your business mate's hours 3. Choose the private note if the notice has no number, and do not post the blow today Here it is: [paste this here: Text of the notice on the neighboring door]
A conflict is entered without knowing the ground or the cost of winning.
How to use it
- Press Copy, or the button for the app you use.
- Paste the text into the chat.
- Write what you need, with your own details. For example:The shop next door put up a sign: our cafe takes their customers. My partner wants to publish a harsh reply today in the neighborhood group. I do not know how many tables we share or what a public fight would cost.

You get back
Before the clash, look at the ground, the missing fact, and the price of coming out ahead. Ground: two neighboring doors and a notice already hung. Whatever is written in the shared chat stays visible. Missing fact: how many seats both houses use, and whether the notice carries a number or only anger. Price of an open quarrel: people who read the dispute and stop coming in to either place, plus your business mate's hours. If the notice carries no figure, the blow is unnecessary. A short note, in private, asking for the count, does more. The base is the old treatise, in the public domain. This is that way of thinking. I am not that figure from the treatise.
In three steps
- Write down the notice, the chat where a reply would go, and which figure is missing.
- Price an open quarrel: people who leave and your business mate's hours.
- Choose the private note if the notice has no number, and do not post the blow today.
A tip If the notice has no figure, a blow in the chat costs more than it gains.
