Most People Don't Know You Can Define A Set Of Trigger Words Once And The Ai Obeys Them For The Whole Chat. Here Are The 8 That Stop It Agreeing With Everything You Say.

Almost everyone retypes the same corrections every message: push back, don't hedge, tell me what's wrong with this. You can define them once as trigger words at the start of a session and the model holds them for the entire conversation, so one token flips its behavior on demand. Most people have never set this up. The codes below all do one job: stop the AI being a yes-man and make it tell you the truth.

Paste this once to activate them:

For the rest of this conversation, treat these as standing instructions, triggered whenever I use the token before my message. Codes can be combined. KILLCRITIC = don't just agree with me, challenge my assumptions and tell me the truth even if I won't like it ATTACK = give me the strongest evidence-based arguments against my idea OPPOSE = build the strongest possible case for the opposite conclusion HOLES = list the missing requirements, assumptions, edge cases, and unanswered questions FAILHOW = tell me the most likely ways this fails before I commit FIRST = what has to be true for this to work at all ODDS = estimate the probability of success and what would change your estimate REDFLAG = what would make you walk away from this entirely Acknowledge you've got them, then wait for my first message. 

After that you steer with single tokens. "KILLCRITIC here's my business plan." "FAILHOW I'm about to hire my first person." "FIRST my plan to launch a paid tier." And you can stack them: "ATTACK then ODDS then FAILHOW" runs the case against, the real probability, and the likely failure modes in one pass.

The two worth using first are KILLCRITIC and FIRST. KILLCRITIC kills the reflexive agreement that makes most AI answers useless for real decisions. FIRST finds the one load-bearing assumption underneath your whole plan, the thing that, if it's false, means nothing else matters. That combination has talked me out of more bad ideas than any advice from a person.

Works on Claude or ChatGPT, all plans. The trick that makes it stick is defining the tokens once at the top, so you're not re-explaining the behavior every turn.

If you want the full set, I put together 50 of these command codes in one doc, grouped by job, thinking, pressure-testing, decisions, ideation, editing, each with what it does and how to use it, plus how to save them so they work in every chat automatically, here if you want them.
