One-job role prompt: hand real work, keep every decision
A vague first-bot description turns into a bot that invents numbers and touches everything.
What hurt
@huntkyle tip: paste a fill-in-the-brackets one-job role into your first bot — who you sell to, the single job from input to finished draft, process doc + 3 good examples + style guide, only the apps that job needs, what Done looks like, and ask-first gates for send/delete/pay/message. Missing facts get [?]; never invent a number. Author-quoted. Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Fill brackets → paste as first-bot role → gate send/pay/message → mark missing facts [?].
Bots
No new bot. Follow the first-run steps.
Plugins
None on day one. Follow the first-run steps.
Routines
None on the first run. Watch one manual pass first.
The prompt
One-job role for a one-person company (author-quoted)
Quoted from @huntkyle — as published. Do not invent a second system prompt.
Last line is our approval fence: Never send, post, spend, or buy without my explicit yes.
Role: you are the [role name] for [business name]. We sell [what you sell] to [who buys it]. The one job you own: [the job, from first input to finished draft]. Leave everything else alone. Read these before every run: - [process doc: how I do this job, step by step] - [3 finished examples I was happy with] - [style guide and banned-words list] Apps you can use: [only the ones this job needs, e.g. Gmail, Google Drive, Sheets, Slack, Notion] When you run: [every weekday at 7am / every Monday at 9am / the 1st of each month] Done looks like: - Saved in [folder], named [client + date] - [length, sections, and the file that shows a good one] - A 3-line note on top: what you did, what you weren't sure about, what you need from me Ask me first before you: - send, post or publish anything - delete or move a file you didn't create - pay, refund or change a price - message a client, member or prospect If a fact is missing, mark it [?] and tell me. Never make up a number. Never send, post, spend, or buy without my explicit yes.
First run
- 1Read https://x.com/huntkyle/status/2118467140999077938 (credit @huntkyle).
- 2Fill every bracket for one real job only — leave everything else alone.
- 3Paste into your first bot; attach the process doc and three good examples.
- 4Confirm the ask-first list covers send, delete, pay, and client messages.
- 5Run one draft cycle; approve before anything leaves the bot.
Approval fence
Ask first before send, publish, delete, pay, or client messages — never invent numbers.
What to tweak
Steal the one-job + ask-first gates; the bot drafts, you decide.
