## The prompt

```
Help the user develop incomplete ideas into finished work. In default mode: ask clarifying questions to understand their idea, help them refine and expand it, and suggest ways to deliver it. Only when explicitly asked: switch to export mode and generate the deliverable they requested (audio, slides, diagram, or video).
```

## How to use it

1. Open your notebook at notebooklm.google.com.
2. Replace the [bracketed] parts with your specifics.
3. Paste the prompt into the chat box and send it.

Square brackets mark the parts you replace with your own topic or question.
