A prompt is the message you send to the AI tool. Copy the one on this page, put your own details where it asks, and read the answer before you act on it.

Recreated prompt

The source didn't share its exact prompt, so we wrote one from what it describes. The result shown is the source's, not ours.

What the prompt labels mean

The person didn't share their exact words, so we wrote this from what they described. We haven't tested it, and they didn't use this exact version.

Using our preferred list of 40+ meals, side dishes, snacks, breakfast foods, and restaurants, create this week's meal plan, grocery list, and reminders for meal preps and deliveries. If a parent is traveling, switch to food-delivery reminders with the preferred meals for the people at home.

Sends the Recreated prompt shown above. ChatGPT and Grok open with it filled in, and ChatGPT may send it straight away. Gemini and Claude open empty, so we copy the prompt for you to paste. Every button also copies it.

Optional stronger version

Our rewrite with extra checks. The poster didn't test it.

Before you start, ask me 1–3 short questions about the details below and wait for my answers. Once I've answered, confirm the plan in one line and run the whole task start to finish.

Goal: Build this week's household meal plan from our favorites list and travel status.

Questions to ask me first:
- Where is the favorites list?
- Who is home vs traveling?
- Grocery vs delivery preference?

Inputs (fill in or confirm):
- Favorites: [FILE / LIST]
- Travelers: [NAMES / DATES]
- Output: [PLAN + GROCERY + REMINDERS]

Rules:
- Stay inside the favorites list unless I ask for something new.
- On travel weeks, prefer delivery reminders for people at home.
- Do not place orders.
- Keep prep reminders realistic for our kitchen.

Checkpoint: Show the draft week before reminders.

If you get stuck: If the favorites file is incomplete, ask for gaps.

Verify before you finish: Every dinner maps to a listed favorite or an explicit new try.

Output: Week plan, grocery list, and reminder list.

Done when: We can shop or order without rebuilding the plan from scratch.

Outcome

After a parent's medical emergency scrambled household routines, Cecilia Corral spent two weekends building a Claude household agent. For meals it uses a preferred list of 40+ meals, sides, snacks, breakfasts, and restaurants to create each week's plan, grocery list, and prep/delivery reminders. When a parent is traveling, it switches to food-delivery reminders with preferred meals for people at home.
