Remove Private Details Before Pasting Text

Works with ChatGPT · Claude · Copilot · Gemini

What you’ll be able to do

You can strip private details before using AI.

The problem

It is easy to paste sensitive data into AI without thinking.

What this skill does

Give the AI your text and ask it to help you redact private details before you use it. Never paste passwords, financial account numbers, government IDs, or other people's personal data into AI, even after redacting the rest.

When to use it

  • Use this when you want AI help with text that contains private details.

Help me redact the private details in this text before I paste it into an AI, replacing them with placeholders: an email with a customer's name, address, and account number.

Why this works

Redacting first keeps personal and confidential data out of AI tools.
