The article and example images not matching confused me at first.

Nice utility use-case, and one I could see being fantastic once tailored to a person's habits. If I was using this every day, I'd probably have it save/retain the original input so I could flip back if the output made no sense.

Ah, I can imagine why the illustration weren’t as clear. Especially if you don’t speak German it might be difficult to catch mistakes. I added new examples.

But as you mention: starting by observing one’s own habits and preferences and then coming up with small instructions is all it takes. Feels like piping in Unix where each process is a prompt.
