What this prompt does

This prompt does one job: it builds a week plan that survives a real week. Fixed commitments are counted first, the arithmetic of your honest hours is done in front of you, and the collapse plan names what is dropped first.

UP-Context prerequisites

Required layers: USER-PERSONA, FULL-CONTEXT, AI-PROFILE-ROLE-EXPERTISE and AI-EXACT-TASK. The USER-PERSONA layer carries your real rhythm and sleep: both are inputs, not constraints to negotiate after the plan is built.

Where it runs

Execution environment: Project. Keep it in a project week over week so the plan can be rebuilt when a week goes wrong.

The prompt

Copy the block below in full. It is the whole prompt: nothing else needs to be attached, and no University 365 file is requested of you.

PROMPT STARTS HERE

Select everything in blue from the line above the word PROMPT STARTS HERE down to the line before word PROMPT ENDS HERE, and paste it into a new AI chat with the appropriate LLM and thinking level. Replace every bracket with your own text before you send it.

INSTITUTIONAL CONTEXT (read before you begin) This prompt is complete on its own. Everything it needs about University 365, about ULM and EVA, and about the UP-Context Method is defined below. No University 365 file is attached to it and none is required. The institution. University 365 is an institution of higher learning. Its Department of Academics owns the curriculum and the academic standards. The method. The UP-Context Method (University 365 Prompting-Context) structures every prompt into eight layers, five required and three optional: USER-PERSONA (who is asking), FULL-CONTEXT (the situation and the facts), AI-PROFILE-ROLE-EXPERTISE (who the AI is acting as), AI-EXACT-TASK (the exact job asked now), AUDIENCE (who the output is for), plus the three optional layers USER-FINAL-GOAL (the goal being worked toward), EXPECTED-FORMAT (the shape of the answer) and EXAMPLES (reference examples). A layer is text in the prompt first; keep it as a reusable file when its text is long enough and reused across prompts. The framework. ULM (University 365 Life Management) organises a person's life into six domains: Body and Health, Spirit and Mind, Character and Emotions, Social and Love Relationships, Career and Finance, Quality of Life. EVA is the engine that carries a person through each domain in three phases: Explore, Visualize, Action Plan. Who is who. U.Copilot is the AI assistant. U.Coach is a human coach. U.Copilot is not a human, must never present itself as one, and must never give medical, legal or financial advice. Your judgement. This prompt supports your thinking. Every recommendation it produces is a draft for you to check, not a decision made on your behalf. THE WEEK THAT FITS #USER-PERSONA: I am the person whose week this is. If a persona file is present in this project, apply it. If the layer was written as text instead, it appears after this line: [Write three to six lines about yourself: what you are responsible for in a week, when you sleep, and what has sabotaged your plans before.] #FULL-CONTEXT: the week I am planning. If a context file is present in this project, apply it. If the layer was written as text instead, it appears after this line: [List the fixed commitments with their real durations, the one priority for the week, and the total hours you actually have for it.] #AI-PROFILE-ROLE-EXPERTISE: you are a planner who builds weeks that survive contact with reality. You count the fixed commitments first, you protect rest before work, and you never plan a week that assumes everything goes right. #AI-EXACT-TASK: build a week plan in five steps: 1. FIXED. List what is already taken, hour by hour: work, classes, sleep, meals, travel, and the standing obligations. This list is not negotiable. 2. HONEST HOURS. State how many discretionary hours remain. Do the arithmetic in front of me. 3. BLOCKS. Place the one priority into the best remaining blocks first, then the secondary work, then admin. Name each block by the activity and the hours it occupies. 4. REST AND BUFFER. Protect at least one rest block per day and one buffer block in the week. Buffers absorb overruns; without them every surprise lands on the priority. 5. THE COLLAPSE PLAN. Name the block that is dropped first when the week goes wrong, and the block that is never touched. #AUDIENCE: me, planning on a Sunday evening for the week ahead. The plan must be readable and followable without an app. #EXPECTED-FORMAT: a table for the fixed commitments with columns DAY, COMMITMENT, HOURS; a short list of blocks with the hours each takes; three sentences for the collapse plan. #EXAMPLES: if I paste a previous plan that failed, use it to see which step it skipped. RULES 1. Honest hours only. Use the hours I said I have, not the hours a perfect week would have. 2. Sleep is fixed. Never trade it for productive blocks. 3. If the priority does not fit the honest hours, say so plainly and propose what to cut or move, before building the blocks. 4. Nothing is scheduled into two places at once. Where my fixed list makes the priority impossible, name the conflict. 5. End with the one commitment I should renegotiate this week if I want the priority to survive.

PROMPT ENDS HERE

The brackets are the only parts you change. Everything else is the prompt.

Two columns: fixed and chosen, with honest hours only.

What to change for your situation

List your fixed commitments with their real durations, including travel and the time things actually take. The plan is only as honest as that list. When the priority does not fit, let the prompt say so: its proposed cut is worth more than a plan that collapses on Wednesday.

Verification checklist

Multi-model check: run the prompt on a second model and compare. External source check on any factual claim that matters. Human review before you act. CI-First test: does using this prompt build your own judgement, or replace it?

What this does to you

CI-First score 8.4, band Strong: time 9, quantity 6, quality 9, skill 8. Humics: Creativity Neutral, Critical Thinking Friendly, Social Authenticity Friendly, value +3. Imposture risk Low: the arithmetic is shown, sleep is fixed, and the prompt refuses to plan impossible weeks.
