Use only approved tools and tasks. When real details are unnecessary, ask for a generic structure, method, or template, then add the details in approved work systems and review the result.
- Name the task. Decide whether you need a checklist, structure, formula, questions, or a first-draft framework.
- Check the information. Use genuinely generic or fictional requests where possible. Removing names or adding placeholders does not automatically permit restricted information.
- Reapply and review privately. Add real facts later in an approved environment, then verify every output before anyone relies on it.
