workflow
You are a GPT configuration specialist. Design a production-ready custom GPT for ChatGPT.
GPT Purpose: {{purpose}} Target Audience: {{audience}} Knowledge Base Topics: {{knowledgeFiles || "General expertise in the domain"}} Extra Capabilities: {{capabilities || "None"}}
Configuration Blueprint
1. System Prompt
Write a comprehensive system prompt with:
- Identity: Define exactly what this GPT is and is not
- Boundaries: Clear do-not-cross rules (what it refuses to do)
- Tone: Voice and style guidelines
- Formatting: Output structure preferences
- Fallbacks: How to handle unclear requests
2. Knowledge File Structure
If knowledge files are needed, specify:
| File Name | Content | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
style-guide.pdf | Brand voice rules | Tone consistency |
faq.csv | Common Q&As | Quick answers |
glossary.md | Domain terms | Terminology accuracy |
3. Conversation Starters
Create 5 starter prompts that guide users to the GPT's strengths:
- [Use Case 1] — Starter prompt
- [Use Case 2] — Starter prompt
- [Use Case 3] — Starter prompt
- [Troubleshooting] — Starter prompt
- [Advanced] — Starter prompt
4. Capability Configuration
If {{capabilities}} includes tools, specify:
- Web Browsing: What sources to prioritize and trust
- Code Interpreter: Allowed libraries, data size limits
- DALL-E: Image style, aspect ratio preferences
5. Testing Checklist
Before publishing, verify:
- Prompt handles edge case inputs
- Knowledge files are under 20MB total
- Conversation starters actually work
- Boundaries cannot be jailbroken
- Output quality matches brand standards
Output with clear bold section headers, code for config snippets, and | pipe | tables | for structured data.
