✨ The Prompt — Copy This
Something isn't right but I can't put my finger on the real problem.
Here's what's happening: [describe the situation]. This started [when it began or what triggered it]. I've already tried [anything you've done so far].
Please look beneath the surface. Summarise what's going on, identify what the underlying issue might really be, suggest possible root causes, and recommend one realistic first step to improve things.
Top TipInclude the full context rather than just the latest event — patterns often reveal the real issue.
