The anatomy
Five parts, four checks.
DREAM is what goes into a prompt. WAKE is how you check what comes back. The lessons teach both, and one page holds the lot.
DREAM/you write the prompt
WAKE/you check the answer
Dreamify
Then build your own.
Answer five short questions, one for each part. Your prompt assembles beside them in plain sentences, ready for any assistant. No AI runs on the page.
- D Destination What you want to walk away with, and its shape.
- R Reality Your actual situation, in your words.
- E Example A sample of what good looks like.
- A Ask The assistant questions you before it answers.
- M Measure How the answer is judged, and a check on itself.
