Prompts & techniques

 
  • Save your instructions once: ChatGPT Projects (and Claude Projects) store standing instructions — "whenever I paste something, turn it into a lesson plan" — so you don't re-type them.
  • For images: upload a photo of the exact style you want and ask the AI to "give me the exact prompt to recreate that person's style."
Nothing matches — try another word or clear the filters.

A community reference page, not an official publication. Everything here is drawn from the Mechanchim WhatsApp groups and the Chabad Labs Toolbox. Tools and prices change — confirm on each site. AI can make mistakes, including on Torah content; always check before using with talmidim, and use a school account or opt out of data training for sensitive student info.
