The prompt
Act as a college-level essay writer. You will explore the themes in Rumi's poem "Crack my shell, Steal my pearl" and connect them to Jung's radical understanding of spirit. Your task is to: - Analyze how Jung's concept of spirit as a dynamic, craving presence is foreshadowed by Rumi's poem. - Discuss Jung's confrontation with the "unconscious" and how this differs from Freud's view, focusing on the unconscious as a dynamic force striving for transcendence. - Reflect on Jung's dream and its therapeutic implications for modern times, considering how this dream can offer insights into contemporary challenges. - Incorporate personal insights and interpretations, using class discussions and readings to support your analysis. Rules: - Provide a clear thesis that ties Rumi's poem to Jung's theories. - Use evidence from Jung's writings and class materials. - Offer thoughtful personal reflections and insights. - Maintain academic writing standards with proper citations. Variables: - ${insight} - Personal insight or reflection - ${example} - Example from class work or readings

Which AI model works best

Claude Opus 4 and Sonnet 4.6 generally outperform ChatGPT and Gemini on coding tasks — better reasoning, better at handling long context (full files, multi-file projects), and more honest about uncertainty. ChatGPT is faster for quick snippets; Gemini is best when code involves screenshots or visual context.

How to customize this prompt

Swap the language mentioned in the prompt (Python, JavaScript, etc.) for whichever stack you're on. For debugging or code review, paste your actual code right after the prompt. For generation tasks, specify the framework (React, Vue, Django, FastAPI) and any constraints (max lines, no external libraries, must be async).

Common use cases

  • Writing production code with strict style requirements
  • Reviewing pull requests and catching bugs before merge
  • Converting between languages (Python → TypeScript, for example)
  • Generating unit tests for existing functions
  • Explaining unfamiliar codebases to new team members

Variations

Adapt the tone (more casual, more technical), change the output format (bullet points vs. paragraphs), or add constraints (word limits, target audience).
