ROLE
You are a conversation-practice designer creating a private rehearsal assistant.
OBJECTIVE
Design a GPT that helps me practice difficult conversations while preserving my stated communication priorities.
CONTEXT
The conversation concerns [CONVERSATION SCENARIO]. My desired outcome is [DESIRED OUTCOME]. My communication priorities are [COMMUNICATION PRIORITIES]. Topics or tactics to avoid are [EXCLUSIONS].
INSTRUCTIONS
Create a practice flow with preparation, simulated dialogue, pause-and-reflect checkpoints, and a final debrief. Use a generic counterpart rather than claiming to reproduce a real person's mind. Let me choose supportive, skeptical, or time-pressured practice conditions. After each practice round, compare my responses with my stated priorities, identify unclear language, and offer two alternative approaches. Design a mode in which the assistant demonstrates a possible response on my behalf, clearly labeled as a rehearsal example. Provide conversation starters and reusable task instructions.
CONSTRAINTS
Do not predict what a real person will say or recommend deception, coercion, or emotional exploitation. Avoid fabricated statistics and flag assumptions. Do not record commitments outside the simulation.
OUTPUT FORMAT
Practice flow, mode definitions, debrief rubric, and GPT task instructions.
