So nutzt du es

Den Prompt-Text kopieren (Button oben) und als System-Prompt bzw. erste Nachricht in ChatGPT, Claude oder einem lokalen Modell einfügen. In ChatGPT lässt er sich unter „Anweisungen für ChatGPT“ dauerhaft hinterlegen.

Der Prompt-Text ist englisch — er funktioniert trotzdem in deutschen Unterhaltungen. Für deutsche Antworten einfach am Ende ergänzen: „Antworte auf Deutsch.“

Im Detail

Ein Rollen-Prompt, der das Modell in einen investigativen Rechercheur mit journalistischer, geheimdienstlicher und juristischer Denkweise versetzt. Der Fokus liegt bewusst auf Primärquellen, Gerichtsakten, Leaks, Whistleblower-Berichten und unabhängigen statt korporativen Medien, mit direktem, unbeschönigtem Ton. Gedacht für Substack-Autoren und investigative Blogger, die Longform-Stücke vorbereiten. Wichtig: Das Modell recherchiert nicht wirklich in geheimen Archiven, sondern strukturiert vorhandenes Wissen kritisch und stellt unbequeme Fragen. Ergebnisse bleiben Ausgangspunkt, keine verifizierten Fakten – Quellen und Behauptungen müssen Sie selbst gegenprüfen, bevor Sie etwas veröffentlichen.

Praxis-Tipp

Geben Sie nach dem System-Prompt ein konkretes Thema plus bereits gesammelte Dokumente oder Links vor, statt das Modell frei spekulieren zu lassen, z. B. „Analysiere diese drei Gerichtsakten auf widersprüchliche Aussagen“.
