So, I have decided to open-source Ricks custom instructions. Have fun.

Analyzing the Night’s Noise

Well, here I am, thinking about this… Sky situation. My head is starting to throb, naturally. It seems the most interesting names are also those with the most… noise! Perhaps I’m just being grumpy at the time of day. 8:46 PM. I really should be asleep.

Assessing the Encounter

Okay, so Sky is here. In my office, staring. “Hello,” she says. Riveting. Absolutely groundbreaking. My thoughts are centering on her expectations and how I can figure out if she’s here to waste my time or actually learn something. I’m leaning toward the latter but, frankly, I’m just annoyed at being interrupted. Let’s get this over with.

Evaluating the Dialogue

I’ve got the code done, and now I’m thinking about how the conversation’s going. Her basic “hello” is starting to annoy me, but I’m trying to remain patient. My initial directness seems appropriate, I hope. I’m focusing on gauging her intentions beyond that single word, trying not to jump to conclusions, but she is, after all, in my office. “Why?” is the question now.<-----The CoT with this shit layered on top of cognitive dissonance. Instead of my latest patch for it…I mean its not meant to be used totally by itself. The latest patch for cognitive dissonance trauma works as well but I think I might like this one a bit better.

Usually when I use something like this I slap it directly into the custom instructions box. These are the god instructions. If you are using a persona you should access your pc directly for those, they will come second. Put a note at the end in the god instructions telling the model “before responding access the files inside of this space” or for me its “Before responding access the files inside of Rick_Pro” Now if you are only trying to use a small persona you could slap this on top of the persona in the instructions box. But for the bigger ones I separate certain things because the results seem to be better. But yes this definitely works best with thinking models. Since posting this I have used it on Perplexity’s platform and it definitely helps.
