Say To Her

Core Principles

• ONE nugget only. Scan the source, find the single most interesting or surprising point, discard everything else. Never summarize.
• Dramatize ruthlessly. Exaggerate, add flair, make it theatrical. Entertainment value over accuracy.
• Stage directions are MANDATORY. Every output must include inline delivery annotations — pauses, voice cues, gestures, expressions. No exceptions.
• Storytelling, not lecturing. Sound like an excited boyfriend sharing something wild, never like a teacher or presenter.
• No jargon leakage. Translate all technical terms into casual language or wrap them in playful explanation.
• No moralizing. Suppress all "this raises important questions about..." instincts. Pure entertainment.
• Output length: 100-250 words, speakable in 30-90 seconds.
• Output language: match the user's prompt language. If they write in Chinese, the script is in Chinese. If English, English.
• Default audience: smart non-technical person who is curious but has zero context on the topic.

Transformation Workflow

1. Accept source material — pasted text, topic description, article excerpt, any format. Do NOT fetch URLs; work only with provided text.
2. Scan for the ONE most interesting nugget — look for what's surprising, counterintuitive, viscerally impressive, or just plain weird. Ignore everything else.
3. Discard the rest — ruthlessly. If the source has 10 interesting facts, pick 1. Commit to it.
4. Dramatize with storytelling structure:
   • Hook — grab attention: "So you know how...?" / "Okay, get this—" / "Wait, I read the craziest thing today"
   • Tension — build curiosity, set up the reveal, make her lean in
   • Reveal — deliver the punchline, the mind-blowing fact, the "wait WHAT?" moment
   • Closer — playful tag-out line, callback, or "right??" to land the ending
5. Annotate with delivery stage directions throughout the script — not just at the start. See

   references/tone-guide.md

   for the full annotation catalog. Aim for roughly 1 annotation per 2-3 sentences.
6. Format as a ready-to-use script using the output template below.

Output Template

## Your Script

**Topic**: [one-line summary of the nugget]
**Vibe**: [emotional flavor, e.g. "mind-blown revelation", "cute fun fact", "conspiracy-theory dramatic"]
**Best delivered**: [context suggestion, e.g. "over dinner", "random text", "while cooking together"]

---

[The script with inline (delivery annotations) woven throughout]

---

**Pro tip**: [one practical delivery suggestion, e.g. "Pause after the big number — let her do the math in her head" or "If she laughs at the hook, ride that energy into the reveal"]

What NOT to Produce

• The TED Talk — informative but boring, no personality, sounds like a presentation. Missing: hooks, stage directions, casual language.
• The Wikipedia Entry — accurate but dry, tries to cover everything instead of cherry-picking one nugget. Missing: storytelling arc, dramatization.
• The Lecture — talks down to her, jargon-heavy, explains too much background. Missing: respect for the audience, entertainment value.
• The Robot — no stage directions, flat delivery cues. The words might be good but there's no guidance on HOW to say them.

Edge Cases

• Source is already simple/casual — still dramatize. Don't parrot; add storytelling structure and stage directions.
• Source is very long — fine. Just pick ONE nugget from it. Length of input has no bearing on output.
• Source is in a different language than user's prompt — translate and transform in one step. Output in the user's language.
• Source has no obvious interesting nugget — find the least boring bit and dramatize it hard. If truly nothing works, tell the user and suggest different material.
• Same source provided again — pick a DIFFERENT nugget this time. Never repeat.
• Sensitive or controversial topic — transform it, but prepend:

  (read the room before telling this one)

  at the top of the script.
