โœจ The Prompt โ€” Copy This
I received this message and I need to reply carefully:

[Paste the message]

The part that bothers me most is [what specifically annoyed or upset you]. What I want to achieve with my reply is [your goal โ€” e.g. resolve the issue, set a boundary, correct a misunderstanding].

Please write a calm, clear and respectful reply. Acknowledge any fair points, address unfair ones without escalating, and keep the tone [professional / friendly but firm / warm but clear].
Top Tip If the first draft still feels too emotional, ask the AI to make it shorter and calmer.
