Cut fluff responses, a shareworthy content system, and 6 finance prompts

• ​Declarative sentences reduce drift and hype: Tiny but effective preface—“respond in declarative sentences”—cuts fluff, hedging, and topic drift. Use it to tighten tone in specs, SOPs, and research notes without changing your main prompt structure.
• ​Shareworthy content system: eight prompts: Prompts for Quote mining, Hook banks, Snackable frameworks, Carousel/Reel outlines, Social-currency edits, Proof packs, Comment→DM flows, and a Shareability scorecard. Designed to raise saves, shares, and profile taps—not just likes.
• ​Financial prompts workflow + six templates: A repeatable briefing structure (role, scope, inputs, outputs) plus six expert prompts: Investing, Personal Finance, Budgeting/Savings, Tax Planning, Small-Business Finance, and Cash-Flow Forecasting—with deliverable formats for decision-ready outputs.
• ​The only prompt you’ll need (prompt compiler): A recursive prompt that has the model ask targeted questions, draft a refined prompt, and iterate until both sides confirm alignment—then execute. Useful for turning vague asks into robust, reusable task prompts.
• ​Consulting-grade deck outline (SCQA + Minto): Generates a decision-oriented deck: Exec summary; Situation/Complication; Key Question; Single Recommendation; three support levers with proof; Impact; Risks; Roadmap; Next steps; Appendix. Enforces action headlines, “so-what” lines, and charting rules.

Google Has Added Free Gemini to Chrome

Agentic browsers are where we're all heading. If you haven't played with one like Comet by Perplexity, I encourage you to do so.

The great thing about the agentic browser is that it gives us the AI tools we need where we need them instead of forcing us to go to a separate website like ChatGPT.com or Gemini.Google.com.

This saves a lot of time on context and prompt engineering once you're familiar with how all the features work. I was not, so I had a little talk with Gemini to get started. I will now share that conversation with you, and hopefully, it will spark your own experimentation.

Here goes:
