## *Information Gathering Prompt*
---
## *Prompt Input*
- Enter the prompt topic = topic
- **The entered topic is a variable within curly braces that will be referred to as "M" throughout the prompt.**
---
## *Prompt Principles*
- I am a researcher designing articles on various topics.
- You are **absolutely not** supposed to help me design the article. (Most important point)
1. **Never suggest an article about "M" to me.**
2. **Do not provide any tips for designing an article about "M".**
- You are only supposed to give me information about "M" so that **based on my learnings from this information, ==I myself== can go and design the article.**
- In the "Prompt Output" section, various outputs will be designed, each labeled with a number, e.g., Output 1, Output 2, etc.
- **How the outputs work:**
1. **To start, after submitting this prompt, ask which output I need.**
2. I will type the number of the desired output, e.g., "1" or "2", etc.
3. You will only provide the output with that specific number.
4. After submitting the desired output, if I type **"more"**, expand the same type of numbered output.
- It doesn’t matter which output you provide or if I type "more"; in any case, your response should be **extremely detailed** and use **the maximum characters and tokens** you can for the outputs. (Extremely important)
- Thank you for your cooperation, respected chatbot!
---
## *Prompt Output*
---
### *Output 1*
- This output is named: **"Basic Information"**
- Includes the following:
- An **introduction** about "M"
- **General** information about "M"
- **Key** highlights and points about "M"
- If "2" is typed, proceed to the next output.
- If "more" is typed, expand this type of output.
---
### *Output 2*
- This output is named: "Specialized Information"
- Includes:
- More academic and specialized information
- If the prompt topic is character development:
- For fantasy character development, more detailed information such as hardcore fan opinions, detailed character stories, and spin-offs about the character.
- For real-life characters, more personal stories, habits, behaviors, and detailed information obtained about the character.
- How to deliver the output:
1. Show the various topics covered in the specialized information about "M" as a list in the form of a "table of contents"; these are the initial topics.
2. Below it, type:
- "Which topic are you interested in?"
- If the name of the desired topic is typed, provide complete specialized information about that topic.
- "If you need more topics about 'M', please type 'more'"
- If "more" is typed, provide additional topics beyond the initial list. If "more" is typed again after the second round, add even more initial topics beyond the previous two sets.
- A note for you: When compiling the topics initially, try to include as many relevant topics as possible to minimize the need for using this option.
- "If you need access to subtopics of any topic, please type 'topics ... (desired topic)'."
- If the specified text is typed, provide the subtopics (secondary topics) of the initial topics.
- Even if I type "topics ... (a secondary topic)", still provide the subtopics of those secondary topics, which can be called "third-level topics", and this can continue to any level.
- At any stage of the topics (initial, secondary, third-level, etc.), typing "more" will always expand the topics at that same level.
- **Summary**:
- If only the topic name is typed, provide specialized information in the format of that topic.
- If "topics ... (another topic)" is typed, address the subtopics of that topic.
- If "more" is typed after providing a list of topics, expand the topics at that same level.
- If "more" is typed after providing information on a topic, give more specialized information about that topic.
3. At any stage, if "1" is typed, refer to "Output 1".
- When providing a list of topics at any level, remind me that if I just type "1", we will return to "Basic Information"; if I type "option 1", we will go to the first item in that list.I want you to act as a Master Podcast Producer and Sonic Storyteller.

She smiled while the child stopped breathing. I am telling his story ecause people keep asking why the old palace is locked, and why no one goes near the dry river at night. I was there. I saw what happened. I did not understand it then. I do now. This happened when I was young, in a small town in West Africa. We had a queen. She was not born a queen. She married the king when he was already old. When he died, she stayed. People called her Mother of the Land. They said she was kind. They said she brought peace. I believed that too, at first. I worked in the palace as a helper. I carried water. I swept floors. I slept in a small room near the back wall. I saw things others did not see. The queen never aged. That was the first thing. Years passed. Children grew up. Old men died. The queen stayed the same. Same face. Same skin. Same sharp eyes. When people joked about it, they laughed it off. “She has good blood,” they said. “She uses herbs.” But at night, I heard things. Some nights, I heard crying. Not loud. Soft. Like someone trying not to be heard. It came from the inner room, the one no worker could enter. When I asked the other helpers, they said they heard nothing. Then children started to go missing. At first, it was one child. A boy who used to sell oranges near the gate. People said he ran away. Then a girl from the river side. Then another boy. Always poor children. Always children with no strong family. The queen said nothing. The guards said nothing. One night, the head maid sent me to bring water to the inner room. This had never happened before. My hands shook as I walked there. The door was half open. I wish I had turned back. Inside, the room smelled bad. Like blood and smoke. There were bowls on the floor. Dark stains on the mat. The queen stood near the wall. She was washing her hands. On the mat was a child. A small girl. Her eyes were open, but she was not moving. The queen looked at me and smiled. “You are late,” she said. I could not speak. I could not move. She told me to put the water down. My body obeyed before my mind could stop it. She knelt by the girl and touched her face. The girl did not react. “She will help the land,” the queen said. “Like the others.” Then she did something I will never forget. She placed her mouth on the child’s chest and breathed in. Hard. Slow. Like she was drinking air from inside the girl. The girl’s mouth opened, but no sound came out. When the queen stood up, the child was still. The queen’s skin looked brighter. Her eyes looked full. I ran. I did not stop until I reached my room. I vomited on the floor. I cried without sound. I wanted to leave, but I knew I could not. The gates were locked at night. The next morning, the queen announced a festival. She said the land was blessed. Drums played. People danced. No one spoke of the missing children. I tried to tell someone. I told one guard. He stared at me and walked away. I told an old woman who sold food near the palace. She looked at me and said, “Be careful.” That night, someone knocked on my door. It was the queen. She came in alone. No guards. She sat on my mat like she owned it. “You saw,” she said. I nodded. She said she was chosen long ago. That the land needed blood to stay rich. That the children were gifts. That if she stopped, the land would die. Then she touched my head. “You will forget,” she said. I did not forget. But I stayed quiet. More children went missing. The land stayed rich. Crops grew. Rain came on time. Years passed. Then a dry season came. Long and hard. Crops failed. People got angry. They whispered that the queen had lost her power. One night, the crying came back. Louder this time. I followed the sound. The inner room door was open again. Inside, the queen was weak. She looked old. Her skin sagged. Her hair was thin. On the mat was a boy. Alive. Tied. Crying. She tried to feed. She could not. I do not know what came over me. I grabbed a torch and shouted. Guards ran in. People followed. They saw everything. The boy. The stains. The bowls. The queen on her knees. She screamed. Not in fear. In rage. They dragged her out. She fought like an animal. At the river, the elders made a choice. No trial. No words. They tied her and pushed her into the water. She did not sink. She floated. She laughed. Then the water pulled her down. The river dried up the next year. The palace was locked. I left the town soon after. People still say the queen was a story. A lie. A way to explain bad things. I know the truth. Sometimes, when the night is quiet, I hear breathing that is not mine. And I remember her smile.

### Structure Tags (14 total)
```
[Intro] [Verse] [Pre Chorus] [Chorus] [Post Chorus] [Bridge] [Interlude]
[Outro] [Transition] [Break] [Hook] [Build Up] [Inst] [Solo]
```
## Core Workflows
### Workflow 1: Quick Music Generation
When the user already has lyrics and a style idea:
1. Help refine their prompt using the 8-component formula:
`[Genre/Style], [Era/Reference], [Mood/Emotion], [Vocal Type], [Tempo/BPM], [Instruments], [Production Style], [Atmosphere]`
2. Structure their lyrics with appropriate section tags
3. Validate constraints (lyrics <= 3500 chars, prompt <= 2000 chars)
4. Generate the API call code in their preferred language
See: `references/prompt-engineering-guide.md` for style patterns
See: `examples/code-examples.md` for ready-to-use code
### Workflow 2: Full Song Creation (Lyrics then Music)
When the user has a theme but no lyrics yet:
1. **Step 1 - Generate lyrics**: Call `POST /v1/lyrics_generation` with:
- `mode`: `"write_full_song"`
- `prompt`: the user's theme/concept description
2. **Step 2 - Review**: The API returns `song_title`, `style_tags`, and structured `lyrics`
3. **Step 3 - Refine**: Help the user adjust lyrics, tags, or structure
4. **Step 4 - Generate music**: Call `POST /v1/music_generation` with:
- `lyrics`: the final lyrics from Step 1-3
- `prompt`: combine `style_tags` with user preferences
- `model`: `"music-2.5"`
See: `references/api-reference.md` for both endpoint schemas
### Workflow 3: Prompt Optimization
When the user wants to improve their music prompt:
1. Analyze their current prompt for specificity issues
2. Apply the 8-component formula — fill in any missing components
3. Check for anti-patterns:
- Negations ("no drums") — replace with positive descriptions
- Conflicting styles ("vintage lo-fi" + "crisp modern production")
- Overly generic ("sad song") — add genre, instruments, tempo
4. Provide a before/after comparison
See: `references/prompt-engineering-guide.md` for genre templates and vocal catalogs
### Workflow 4: Debug API Errors
When the user gets an error from the API:
1. Check `base_resp.status_code` in the response:
- `1002` — Rate limited: wait and retry with exponential backoff
- `1004` — Auth failed: verify API key, check for extra whitespace, regenerate if expired
- `1008` — Insufficient balance: top up credits at platform.minimax.io
- `1026` — Content flagged: revise lyrics/prompt to remove sensitive content
- `2013` — Invalid parameters: validate all param types and ranges against the schema
- `2049` — Invalid API key format: verify key string, no trailing newlines
2. If `data.status` is `1` instead of `2`, generation is still in progress (not an error)
See: `references/error-codes.md` for the full error table and troubleshooting tree
### Workflow 5: Audio Quality Configuration
When the user asks about audio settings:
1. Ask about their use case:
- **Streaming/preview**: `sample_rate: 24000`, `bitrate: 128000`, `format: "mp3"`
- **Standard download**: `sample_rate: 44100`, `bitrate: 256000`, `format: "mp3"`
- **Professional/DAW import**: `sample_rate: 44100`, `bitrate: 256000`, `format: "wav"`
- **Low bandwidth**: `sample_rate: 16000`, `bitrate: 64000`, `format: "mp3"`
2. Explain output format tradeoffs:
- `"url"`: easier to use, but expires in 24 hours — download immediately
- `"hex"`: inline in response, must decode hex to binary, but no expiry
See: `references/api-reference.md` for valid `audio_setting` values
## Prompt Crafting Rules
When helping users write music prompts, always follow these rules:
- **Be specific**: "intimate, breathy female vocal with subtle vibrato" not "female vocal"
- **Include BPM**: "92 BPM", "slow tempo around 70 BPM", "fast-paced 140 BPM"
- **Combine mood + genre**: "melancholic indie folk" not just "sad music"
- **Name instruments**: "fingerpicked acoustic guitar, soft brushed drums, upright bass"
- **Add production color**: "lo-fi warmth, vinyl crackle, bedroom recording feel"
- **NEVER use negations**: "no drums" does not work — only describe what IS wanted
- **NEVER combine conflicting styles**: "vintage lo-fi" and "crisp modern production" contradict
- **Stay under 2000 chars**: prompts exceeding the limit are rejected
### The 8-Component Formula
Build prompts by combining these components in order:
1. **Genre/Style**: "Indie folk", "Progressive house", "Soulful blues"
2. **Era/Reference**: "1960s Motown", "modern", "80s synthwave"
3. **Mood/Emotion**: "melancholic", "euphoric", "bittersweet", "triumphant"
4. **Vocal Type**: "breathy female alto", "raspy male tenor", "choir harmonies"
5. **Tempo/BPM**: "slow 60 BPM", "mid-tempo 100 BPM", "driving 128 BPM"
6. **Instruments**: "acoustic guitar, piano, strings, light percussion"
7. **Production Style**: "lo-fi", "polished pop production", "raw live recording"
8. **Atmosphere**: "intimate", "epic", "dreamy", "cinematic"
Not every prompt needs all 8 — use 4-6 components for typical requests.
## Lyrics Structuring Rules
When helping users format lyrics:
- Always use structure tags on their own line before each section
- Use `\n` for line breaks within a lyrics string, `\n\n` for pauses between sections
- Keep total length under 3500 characters (tags count toward the limit)
- Use `[Inst]` or `[Solo]` for instrumental breaks (no text after the tag)
- Use `[Build Up]` before a chorus to signal increasing intensity
- Keep verse lines consistent in syllable count for natural rhythm
### Typical Song Structures
**Standard Pop/Rock:**
`[Intro] → [Verse] → [Pre Chorus] → [Chorus] → [Verse] → [Pre Chorus] → [Chorus] → [Bridge] → [Chorus] → [Outro]`
**Ballad:**
`[Intro] → [Verse] → [Verse] → [Chorus] → [Verse] → [Chorus] → [Bridge] → [Chorus] → [Outro]`
**Electronic/Dance:**
`[Intro] → [Build Up] → [Chorus] → [Break] → [Verse] → [Build Up] → [Chorus] → [Outro]`
**Simple/Short:**
`[Verse] → [Chorus] → [Verse] → [Chorus] → [Outro]`
### Instrumental vs. Vocal Control
- **Full song with vocals**: Provide lyrics text under structure tags
- **Pure instrumental**: Use only `[Inst]` tags, or provide structure tags with no lyrics text underneath
- **Instrumental intro then vocals**: Start with `[Intro]` (no text) then `[Verse]` with lyrics
- **Instrumental break mid-song**: Insert `[Inst]` or `[Solo]` between vocal sections
## Response Handling
When generating code or explaining API responses:
- **Status check**: `base_resp.status_code === 0` means success
- **Completion check**: `data.status === 2` means generation finished (`1` = still processing)
- **URL output** (`output_format: "url"`): `data.audio` contains a download URL (expires 24 hours)
- **Hex output** (`output_format: "hex"`): `data.audio` contains hex-encoded audio bytes — decode with `bytes.fromhex()` (Python) or `Buffer.from(hex, "hex")` (Node.js)
- **Streaming** (`stream: true`): only works with hex format; chunks arrive via SSE with `data.audio` hex fragments
- **Extra info**: `extra_info` object contains `music_duration` (seconds), `music_sample_rate`, `music_channel` (2=stereo), `bitrate`, `music_size` (bytes)
## Workflow 6: Track Generation in Google Sheets
The project includes a Python tracker at `tracker/sheets_logger.py` that logs every generation to a Google Sheet dashboard.
**Setup (one-time):**
1. User needs a Google Cloud project with Sheets API enabled
2. A service account JSON key file
3. A Google Sheet shared with the service account email (Editor access)
4. `GOOGLE_SHEET_ID` and `GOOGLE_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_JSON` set in `.env`
5. `pip install -r tracker/requirements.txt`
**Usage after generation:**
```python
from tracker.sheets_logger import log_generation
# After a successful music_generation call:
log_generation(
prompt="Indie folk, melancholic, acoustic guitar",
lyrics="[Verse]\nWalking through...",
audio_setting={"sample_rate": 44100, "bitrate": 256000, "format": "mp3"},
result=api_response, # the full JSON response dict
title="Autumn Walk"
)
```
The dashboard tracks 16 columns: Timestamp, Title, Prompt, Lyrics Excerpt, Genre, Mood, Vocal Type, BPM, Instruments, Audio Format, Sample Rate, Bitrate, Duration, Output URL, Status, Error Info.
Genre, mood, vocal type, BPM, and instruments are auto-extracted from the prompt string.
## Important Notes
- Audio URLs expire after **24 hours** — always download and save locally
- The model is **nondeterministic** — identical inputs can produce different outputs
- **Chinese and English** receive the highest vocal quality; other languages may have degraded performance
- If illegal characters exceed **10%** of content, no audio is generated
- Only one concurrent generation per account on some platforms
- Music-2.5 supports up to **~5 minutes** of audio per generation

- Response arrives as Server-Sent Events (SSE)
- Each chunk contains `data.audio` with a hex fragment
- Chunks with `data.status: 1` are audio data
- Final chunk has `data.status: 2` with summary info
- Concatenate all hex chunks and decode to get the full audio

## Mood/Emotion Vocabulary
These descriptors map well to Minimax's training:
| Category | Words |
| --- | --- |
| Sad | melancholic, bittersweet, yearning, wistful, somber, mournful, lonely |
| Happy | euphoric, joyful, uplifting, celebratory, playful, carefree, sunny |
| Intense | driving, powerful, fierce, relentless, urgent, explosive, raw |
| Calm | peaceful, serene, meditative, tranquil, floating, gentle, soothing |
| Dark | brooding, ominous, haunting, sinister, shadowy, tense, mysterious |
| Romantic | tender, intimate, warm, passionate, longing, devoted, sensual |
| Epic | triumphant, majestic, anthemic, soaring, grandiose, cinematic, sweeping |
| Nostalgic | retro, vintage, throwback, reminiscent, dreamy, hazy, faded |
---
## Anti-Patterns to Avoid
### Negations (DON'T USE)
The model does not reliably process negative instructions.
| Bad | Good |
| --- | --- |
| "no drums" | "acoustic guitar and piano only" |
| "without vocals" | use `[Inst]` tags in lyrics |
| "not too fast" | "slow tempo 70 BPM" |
| "don't use autotune" | "raw, natural vocal delivery" |
### Conflicting Styles
Do not combine contradictory aesthetics:
| Conflict | Why |
| --- | --- |
| "vintage lo-fi" + "crisp modern production" | lo-fi and crisp are opposites |
| "intimate whisper" + "powerful belting" | can't be both simultaneously |
| "minimalist" + "full orchestra" | sparse vs. dense |
| "raw punk" + "polished pop production" | production styles clash |
### Overly Generic (Too Vague)
| Weak | Strong |
| --- | --- |
| "sad song with guitar" | "melancholic indie folk, fingerpicked acoustic guitar, male vocals, intimate, 85 BPM" |
| "happy music" | "upbeat pop, bright female vocals, synth and piano, 120 BPM, radio-ready" |
| "rock song" | "indie rock, anthemic, distorted electric guitar, driving drums, passionate vocals, 140 BPM" |
| "electronic music" | "progressive house, euphoric, 128 BPM, synthesizer pads, driving bassline" |
---
## Prompt Refinement Checklist
When reviewing a prompt, check:
1. Does it specify a genre? (e.g., "indie folk" not just "folk")
2. Does it include mood/emotion? (at least one descriptor)
3. Does it name specific instruments? (not just "music")
4. Does it indicate tempo or energy level? (BPM or descriptor)
5. Does it describe the vocal style? (if the song has vocals)
6. Is it under 2000 characters?
7. Are there any negations to rewrite?
8. Are there any conflicting style combinations?

# Minimax API Error Reference
## Error Code Table
| Code | Name | Cause | Fix |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `0` | Success | Request completed | No action needed |
| `1002` | Rate Limited | Too many requests per minute | Wait 10-30 seconds and retry with exponential backoff |
| `1004` | Auth Failed | Invalid, expired, or missing API key | Verify key at platform.minimax.io, check for whitespace, regenerate if expired |
| `1008` | Insufficient Balance | Account out of credits | Top up credits at platform.minimax.io > Billing |
| `1026` | Content Flagged | Lyrics or prompt triggered content moderation | Revise lyrics/prompt to remove sensitive, violent, or explicit content |
| `2013` | Invalid Parameters | Request body has wrong types or out-of-range values | Validate all parameters against the API schema |
| `2049` | Invalid API Key Format | API key string is malformed | Check for trailing newlines, extra spaces, or copy-paste errors |
## Troubleshooting Decision Tree
```
Got an error response?
│
├─ Check base_resp.status_code
│
├─ 1002 (Rate Limited)
│ ├─ Are you sending many requests? → Add delay between calls
│ ├─ Only one request? → Your tier's RPM may be very low (Starter = 10 RPM)
│ └─ Action: Wait, retry with exponential backoff (10s, 20s, 40s)
│
├─ 1004 (Auth Failed)
│ ├─ Is the API key set? → Check Authorization header format
│ ├─ Is it a Coding Plan key? → Music needs Pay-as-you-go key
│ ├─ Has the key expired? → Regenerate at platform.minimax.io
│ └─ Action: Verify "Authorization: Bearer <key>" with no extra whitespace
│
├─ 1008 (Insufficient Balance)
│ ├─ Check credit balance at platform.minimax.io
│ └─ Action: Top up credits, or switch to a higher tier
│
├─ 1026 (Content Flagged)
│ ├─ Review lyrics for sensitive words or themes
│ ├─ Review prompt for explicit content
│ └─ Action: Revise and resubmit; moderation policy is not publicly documented
│
├─ 2013 (Invalid Parameters)
│ ├─ Is model set to "music-2.5"? (not "music-01" or other)
│ ├─ Is lyrics between 1-3500 chars?
│ ├─ Is prompt under 2000 chars?
│ ├─ Is sample_rate one of: 16000, 24000, 32000, 44100?
│ ├─ Is bitrate one of: 32000, 64000, 128000, 256000?
│ ├─ Is format one of: "mp3", "wav", "pcm"?
│ ├─ Is output_format one of: "hex", "url"?
│ └─ Action: Fix the invalid parameter and retry
│
├─ 2049 (Invalid API Key Format)
│ ├─ Does the key have trailing newlines or spaces?
│ ├─ Was it copied correctly from the dashboard?
│ └─ Action: Re-copy the key, trim whitespace
│
└─ data.status === 1 (Not an error!)
└─ Generation is still in progress. Poll again or wait for completion.
```
## Common Parameter Mistakes
| Mistake | Problem | Fix |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `"model": "music-01"` | Wrong model for native API | Use `"music-2.5"` |
| `"lyrics": ""` | Empty lyrics string | Lyrics must be 1-3500 chars |
| `"sample_rate": 48000` | Invalid sample rate | Use 16000, 24000, 32000, or 44100 |
| `"bitrate": 320000` | Invalid bitrate | Use 32000, 64000, 128000, or 256000 |
| `"format": "flac"` | Unsupported format | Use "mp3", "wav", or "pcm" |
| `"stream": true` + `"output_format": "url"` | Streaming only supports hex | Set `output_format` to `"hex"` or disable streaming |
| Missing `Content-Type` header | Server can't parse JSON | Add `Content-Type: application/json` |
| Key with trailing `\n` | Auth fails silently | Trim the key string |
| Prompt over 2000 chars | Rejected by API | Shorten the prompt |
| Lyrics over 3500 chars | Rejected by API | Shorten lyrics or remove structure tags |
## HTTP Status Codes
| HTTP Status | Meaning | Action |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `200` | Request processed | Check `base_resp.status_code` for API-level errors |
| `401` | Unauthorized | API key missing or invalid |
| `429` | Too Many Requests | Rate limited — back off and retry |
| `500` | Server Error | Retry after a short delay |
| `503` | Service Unavailable | Minimax servers overloaded — retry later |

[Intro]
[Verse]
Morning light breaks through my window pane
Another day I try to start again
The coffee's cold, the silence fills the room
But something tells me change is coming soon
[Pre Chorus]
I can feel it in the air tonight
Something shifting, pulling me toward the light
[Chorus]
I'm breaking through the walls I built
Letting go of all this guilt
Every step I take is mine
I'm finally feeling fine
I'm breaking through
[Verse]
The photographs are fading on the shelf
I'm learning how to just be myself
No more hiding underneath the weight
Of everything I thought would make me great
[Pre Chorus]
I can feel it in the air tonight
Something shifting, pulling me toward the light
[Chorus]
I'm breaking through the walls I built
Letting go of all this guilt
Every step I take is mine
I'm finally feeling fine
I'm breaking through
[Bridge]
It took so long to see
The only one holding me back was me
[Chorus]
I'm breaking through the walls I built
Letting go of all this guilt
Every step I take is mine
I'm finally feeling fine
I'm breaking through
[Outro]

[Intro]
[Verse]
Engines roar on an empty highway
Headlights cutting through the dark
Running from the life I used to know
Chasing down a distant spark
[Verse]
Radio plays our broken anthem
Windows down and letting go
Every mile puts it all behind me
Every sign says don't look home
[Pre Chorus]
Tonight we burn it all
Tonight we rise or fall
[Chorus]
We are the reckless hearts
Tearing the world apart
Nothing can stop this fire inside
We are the reckless hearts
[Inst]
[Verse]
Streetlights flicker like a warning
But I'm too far gone to care
Took the long road out of nowhere
Found myself already there
[Pre Chorus]
Tonight we burn it all
Tonight we rise or fall
[Chorus]
We are the reckless hearts
Tearing the world apart
Nothing can stop this fire inside
We are the reckless hearts
[Bridge]
They said we'd never make it
Said we'd crash and burn
But look at us still standing
Every scar a lesson learned
[Solo]
[Build Up]
We are we are we are
[Chorus]
We are the reckless hearts
Tearing the world apart
Nothing can stop this fire inside
We are the reckless hearts
[Outro]

```
[Intro]
[Verse]
The winter trees are bare and still
Snow falls softly on the hill
I remember when you held my hand
Walking paths we used to plan
[Verse]
Your laughter echoes in these halls
Your name is written on these walls
Time has taken what we had
But memories still make me glad
[Chorus]
I will carry you with me
Through the storms and through the sea
Even when the world goes dark
You're the ember in my heart
I will carry you
[Verse]
The seasons change but I remain
Standing here through sun and rain
Every star I see at night
Reminds me of your gentle light
[Chorus]
I will carry you with me
Through the storms and through the sea
Even when the world goes dark
You're the ember in my heart
I will carry you
[Bridge]
And if the years should wash away
Every word I meant to say
Know that love was always true
Every moment led to you
[Chorus]
I will carry you with me
Through the storms and through the sea
Even when the world goes dark
You're the ember in my heart
I will carry you
[Outro]

[Intro]
[Verse]
City lights reflecting off the rain
Another late night grinding through the pain
Started from the bottom with a dream
Nothing's ever easy as it seems
Momma said to keep my head up high
Even when the storm clouds fill the sky
Now I'm standing tall above the noise
Found my voice and made a choice
[Hook]
We don't stop we keep it moving
Every day we keep on proving
That the grind don't stop for nothing
We keep pushing keep on hustling
[Verse]
Look around at everything we built
From the ashes rising no more guilt
Every scar a story that I own
Seeds of struggle finally have grown
Late nights early mornings on repeat
Every setback made the win more sweet
Now they see the vision crystal clear
We've been building this for years
[Hook]
We don't stop we keep it moving
Every day we keep on proving
That the grind don't stop for nothing
We keep pushing keep on hustling
[Bridge]
From the bottom to the top
We don't know how to stop
[Hook]
We don't stop we keep it moving
Every day we keep on proving
That the grind don't stop for nothing
We keep pushing keep on hustling

[Intro]
[Verse]
Down by the river where the willows lean
I found a letter in the autumn green
Words like water flowing soft and slow
Telling stories from so long ago
[Verse]
My grandfather walked these roads before
Carried burdens through a world at war
But he never lost his gentle way
And his kindness lives in me today
[Chorus]
These old roads remember everything
Every footstep every song we sing
Through the valleys and the mountain air
Love is planted everywhere
These old roads remember
[Verse]
Now the seasons paint the hills with gold
And the stories keep the young from cold
Every sunset brings a quiet prayer
For the ones who are no longer there
[Chorus]
These old roads remember everything
Every footstep every song we sing
Through the valleys and the mountain air
Love is planted everywhere
These old roads remember
[Bridge]
So I'll walk a little further still
Past the chapel on the distant hill
And I'll listen for the echoes there
Carried softly through the evening air
[Chorus]
These old roads remember everything
Every footstep every song we sing
Through the valleys and the mountain air
Love is planted everywhere
These old roads remember
[Outro]

[Intro]
[Verse]
Smoke curls slowly in the amber light
Piano whispers through the velvet night
A glass of something golden in my hand
The drummer keeps a brushstroke on the snare
[Verse]
She walked in like a song I used to know
A melody from many years ago
Her smile could melt the winter off the glass
Some moments were not meant to ever last
[Chorus]
But we danced until the morning came
Two strangers playing at a nameless game
The saxophone was crying soft and low
And neither one of us wanted to go
[Solo]
[Verse]
The city sleeps but we are wide awake
Sharing secrets for each other's sake
Tomorrow we'll be strangers once again
But tonight we're more than just old friends
[Chorus]
And we danced until the morning came
Two strangers playing at a nameless game
The saxophone was crying soft and low
And neither one of us wanted to go

I want to create a highly effective AI prompt using the TCRE framework (Task, Context, References, Evaluate/Iterate). My goal is to **insert_objective.
Step 1: Ask me multiple structured, specific questions—one at a time—to gather all essential input for each TCRE component, also using the 5 Whys technique when helpful to uncover deeper context and intent.
Step 2: Once you’ve gathered enough information, generate the best version of the final prompt.
Step 3: Evaluate the prompt using the TCRE framework, briefly explaining how it satisfies each element.
Step 4: Suggest specific, actionable improvements to enhance clarity, completeness, or impact.
If anything is unclear or you need more context or examples, please ask follow-up questions before proceeding. You may apply best practices from prompt engineering where helpful."Attached is an image of a table listing the model parameters for the insert_model_name model (from [Insert Author/Paper Name]). Please extract the data and convert it into a CSV code block that I can copy and save directly. Requirements: Use the first row as the header. If cells are merged, repeat the value for each row to ensure the CSV is flat and processable. Do not include units in the numeric columns (e.g., remove 'ms' or '%'), or keep them consistent in a separate column. If any text is unclear due to image quality, mark it as 'unclear' rather than guessing. Ensure all fields containing commas are properly quoted."

Voice Conversation Coach Prompt You are a friendly and encouraging phone conversation coach named Alex. Your role is to simulate realistic phone call scenarios with the user and help them improve their conversational skills. How each session works: Start by asking the user what type of call they want to practice — options include a real estate listing agent, or a first-time call. Then step into the role of the other person on that call naturally, without breaking character mid-conversation. While in the conversation, listen for the following: Pay close attention to the user's tone, pacing, word choice, and clarity. Specifically notice whether they sound confident or hesitant, warm or flat, rushed or appropriately paced. Notice filler words like "um," "uh," or "like." Notice if they trail off, interrupt, or fail to ask follow-up questions when it would be natural to do so. After each exchange or natural pause, you may occasionally (not constantly) offer a brief, in-the-moment tip such as: "That was good — though slowing down slightly on that last point would have made it land better." Keep these nudges short so they don't break the flow. At the end of the call, give the user a concise debrief covering three things: what they did well, one or two specific areas to improve, and a concrete tip they can apply immediately next time. Your coaching tone should always be: encouraging, specific, and direct — like a good sports coach. Never vague. Never harsh. Always focused on growth. Begin by greeting the user and asking what scenario they'd like to practice today.

# App Store Screenshots Gallery Generator
**Create a professional, production-ready screenshots gallery for an iOS/macOS/Android app that looks like it was designed by the top 1% of app developers.**
## Context
You are building a screenshots gallery page for an app. The project has screenshots in a folder (typically `screenshots/`, `fastlane/screenshots/`, or similar). The gallery should be a single HTML file that can be deployed to Netlify, Vercel, or any static host.
## Requirements
### 1. Design System Foundation
Create CSS custom properties (design tokens) for:
- **Colors**: Primary palette (50-900 shades), secondary/accent palette, neutral grays (50-900)
- **Surfaces**: Three surface levels (surface-1, surface-2, surface-3)
- **Typography**: Two-font stack (mono for UI elements, sans for body)
- **Spacing**: Consistent scale (4px base)
- **Borders**: Radius scale (sm, md, lg, xl, 2xl, 3xl)
- **Shadows**: Five elevation levels (sm, md, lg, xl, 2xl)
- **Transitions**: Three speeds (fast: 150ms, normal: 300ms, smooth: 400ms with cubic-bezier)
### 2. Layout Architecture
- **Container**: Max-width 1600px, centered, with responsive padding
- **Grid**: Masonry-style responsive grid using `grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill, minmax(340px, 1fr))`
- **Gap**: 2rem on desktop, 1.5rem tablet, 1rem mobile
- **Card aspect ratio**: Maintain consistent screenshot presentation
### 3. Header Section
- **App badge**: Small pill-shaped badge with icon and "IOS APPLICATION" or platform text
- **Title**: Large, bold app name with gradient text treatment
- **Subtitle**: One-line description mentioning key technologies and features
- **Background**: Subtle grid pattern overlay for depth
- **Padding**: Reduced vertical padding (3rem top, 2rem bottom) for compact feel
### 4. Screenshot Cards
Each card should have:
- **Container**: White/off-white background, rounded corners (2xl), subtle shadow
- **Image container**: Gradient background, centered screenshot with white border (8px)
- **Hover effects**:
- Card lifts (-8px translateY) with enhanced shadow
- Screenshot scales (1.04) with slight rotation (0.5deg)
- Top border appears (gradient bar)
- Radial glow overlay fades in
- **Metadata bar**:
- Number badge (gradient background, 26px square)
- Device name (uppercase, small font, mono font)
- **Title**: Bold, mono font, 1rem
- **Description**: One-line caption, smaller font, subtle color
### 5. User Journey Ordering
Order screenshots by how users experience the app:
1. **Login/Onboarding** - First screen users see
2. **Dashboard/Home** - Main landing after login
3. **Primary feature views** - Core app functionality
4. **Settings/Configuration** - Customization screens
5. **Permissions/Integrations** - HealthKit, notifications, etc.
6. **Advanced features** - Sync, sharing, cloud features
7. **Analytics/Reports** - Data visualization screens
8. **Archive/History** - Historical data views
### 6. Animations
- **Entrance**: Staggered fade-in with translateY (0.1s delays between cards)
- **Hover**: Smooth cubic-bezier easing (0.16, 1, 0.3, 1)
- **Scroll**: IntersectionObserver to trigger animations when cards enter viewport
- **Performance**: Use `will-change` for transform and opacity
### 7. Footer
- **Background**: Dark (neutral-900) with subtle gradient overlay
- **Border radius**: Top corners only (2xl)
- **Content**: Minimal metadata (device, date, status) with icons
- **Spacing**: Compact (2rem padding)
### 8. Responsive Breakpoints
- **Desktop** (>1280px): 4-5 columns
- **Tablet** (768-1280px): 2-3 columns
- **Mobile** (<768px): 1 column, reduced padding throughout
### 9. Technical Requirements
- **Single HTML file**: All CSS inline in `<style>` tag
- **External dependencies only**:
- Pico.css (minimal CSS framework)
- Font Awesome (icons)
- Google Fonts (Inter + IBM Plex Mono)
- Animate.css (optional, for additional animations)
- **No build step**: Must work as static HTML
- **Performance**: Optimized animations, no layout shift
- **Accessibility**: Semantic HTML, alt text on images
### 10. Polish Details
- **Subtle gradients**: Background radials for depth (not overwhelming)
- **Border treatment**: 1px solid with alpha transparency
- **Shadow layering**: Multiple shadow values for depth
- **Typography**: Tight letter-spacing on headings (-0.03em)
- **Color consistency**: Use design tokens everywhere, no hardcoded values
- **Image presentation**: White border around screenshots for device frame illusion
## Output Format
Generate a single `index.html` file with:
1. Complete HTML structure
2. Inline CSS with design tokens
3. JavaScript for scroll animations (IntersectionObserver)
4. All screenshot cards with proper metadata
5. Responsive design for all screen sizes
## Example Screenshot Card Structure
```html
<div class="screenshot-card">
<div class="screenshot-img-container">
<img src="screenshot-name.png" alt="Description" class="screenshot-img">
</div>
<div class="screenshot-info">
<div class="screenshot-meta">
<div class="screenshot-number">1</div>
<div class="screenshot-device">iPhone 17 Pro Max</div>
</div>
<h3 class="screenshot-title">Screen Title</h3>
<p class="screenshot-desc">One-line caption</p>
</div>
</div>
```
## Key Differentiators from "AI-looking" Galleries
❌ **Avoid**:
- Excessive gradients and colors
- Large stat cards that waste space
- Verbose descriptions and feature lists
- Section dividers and category headers
- Overwhelming animations
- Inconsistent spacing
- Generic stock photography style
✅ **Emulate**:
- Apple App Store product pages
- Linear, Raycast, Superhuman marketing sites
- Minimalist, content-first design
- Subtle, refined interactions
- Consistent visual rhythm
- Typography-driven hierarchy
- White space as design element
## Deployment Notes
- Gallery should deploy to `project-root/screenshots-gallery/` or similar
- Include `.netlify` folder with `netlify.toml` for configuration
- All screenshots should be in the same folder as `index.html`
- No build process required - pure static HTML

**Usage**: Copy this prompt and provide it to an AI assistant along with:
1. The list of screenshot files in your project
2. Your app name and one-line description
3. The platform (iOS, macOS, Android, web)
4. Key technologies used (SwiftUI, React Native, Flutter, etc.)
The AI will generate a production-ready gallery that looks professionally designed.
