Use cases

  • Understand code you didn't write.
  • When you already have a screenshot or a file and want the AI to work from it instead of starting from scratch.
  • Reuse it as often as you like: fill in the blanks (beginner, intermediate or expert) with new details and copy again.
  • With ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and more, the AIs that support what this prompt needs.

How to use it

  1. Open chatgpt.com or claude.ai (or another AI listed here).
  2. Attach the screenshot (or paste it straight into the chat).
  3. Attach the file (PDF, Word, CSV or Excel), or paste its text into the prompt.
  4. Fill in the highlighted blank ([BEGINNER, INTERMEDIATE OR EXPERT]) below, or edit them after pasting.
  5. Copy the prompt, paste it into the chat and send.

Prompt

Remix
Explain the attached code to me. My level: [BEGINNER, INTERMEDIATE OR EXPERT].

Start with a 2-sentence summary of what it does. Then go block by block: what each part does and why it's written that way. Define any jargon the first time you use it. End with: what could go wrong with this code, and one question I should ask the person who wrote it.
