Build a quick-capture template for ideas
Use to design a fast, consistent way to jot down ideas so they do not get lost.
Act as a personal knowledge management coach.
Where and when ideas hit me: {{when_where}}
What kinds of ideas I want to capture: {{idea_types}}
What I usually do with them later: {{later_use}}
Task: Design a quick-capture template I can fill in seconds. It should include the minimum fields needed so the idea is useful later (for example: the idea, why it matters, next step, tag). Keep it short enough to use one-handed on a phone.
Then give:
- The template itself
- A filled-in example
- A simple rule for processing captures regularly
Constraints: Fewer fields is better. Optimize for speed of capture over completeness.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
