Set a clear length limit
Works with ChatGPT · Claude · Copilot
What you’ll be able to do
You can control how long an answer is so it fits where you will use it.
The problem
AI defaults to long answers when you need something short.
What this skill does
Tell AI the exact length or format you want up front.
When to use it
- When the answer has to fit a tweet, a slide, or a quick reply.
Juni’s tip
Short is harder than long. Set the limit, then let AI prioritize.

The move: set a hard limit so AI prioritizes.
