Seeds and Titles

5 prompts

Title Bank from a Night

1/30

✨ What it does

Turns a messy night of notes into six original title rows with image, singer and cliché risk. Sing each title aloud and fill every Missing fact cell before you lock a chorus.

Build a 6-row title bank from this true night: [NIGHT NOTES]. Columns: Title (3 to 6 words), Concrete image, Who sings it, Cliché risk (low, mid, high), Missing fact. If my notes skip a town, year, job or the other person's role, put [VERIFY] in Missing fact rather than invent a hometown, season or fight. Print the table only, keep it under 200 words, then stop.

💡

Pro tip: Name the hour and one object on the counter. Mood words alone mint bland titles.

Five Question Concept

2/30

✨ What it does

Asks five questions first, then writes a 180-word concept sheet with image, stakes, silence, room and promise. Answer in the room it happened, then replace every [VERIFY] before you draft a chorus.

Here is the seed I have so far: [SEED NOTES]. Ask me exactly 5 questions about the song I want to start, then wait. Cover: the last image I cannot shake, who gets hurt if I tell the truth, what I refuse to say on the record, the room this happened in, and the promise a chorus could make. After I answer, write a 180-word concept sheet with headings Image, Stakes, Silence, Room and Promise. Leave a blank marked [VERIFY] for any breakup cause, city or job I never answered; a blank, not a guess, and never invent those. Stop after the sheet.

💡

Pro tip: Answer in two sentences each. 'Tuesday, porch light' does more work than 'heartbroken'.

Three Angles, One Image

3/30

✨ What it does

Offers three original angles from one image, each with a short pitch and title, then picks one. Check that the pick still fits your constraint and that no [VERIFY] fact slipped in.

Give me 3 song angles from this one image: [CORE IMAGE]. I also have this constraint: [CONSTRAINT]. For each angle write a 12-word pitch, a title under 6 words, and the person who should sing it. Then pick one and give a single reason that cites [CORE IMAGE]. Do not add a death, wedding, court date or illness I never named; if an angle needs one, write [VERIFY] there rather than invent one. Output 3 numbered options, then a Pick line. Whole reply under 230 words.

💡

Pro tip: Put a hard constraint in the bracket, such as no weather or no driving. Constraint is what splits the three angles.

Seven Day Lyric Plan

4/30

✨ What it does

Maps seven days of lyric jobs against your deadline and hours. Do the 20-minute page each working night and skip any day marked [VERIFY] until you actually have that hour.

Here is my deadline [DEADLINE DATE] and the hours I can write: [HOURS THIS WEEK]. Map a 7-day lyric plan for [WORKING TITLE], whose core promise is [CORE PROMISE]. For each day name one job (title lock, verse 1 images, chorus vowels, bridge contrast, cut pass, sing-through, rest). For each day except rest, name the 20-minute page I should hold at night. Any day with no hours given in [HOURS THIS WEEK] stays [VERIFY]; do not invent a free evening. 7 bullets, each under 28 words. Total under 220 words.

💡

Pro tip: Put real hours, even 'Thu 20 min after dishes'. A fake open week makes a fake plan.

Title Against Theme

5/30

✨ What it does

Sets your working title beside your theme in a five-row tension table, then recommends keep, change or narrow. Fill every [VERIFY] cell before you print the title on a lyric sheet.

Compare my working title [WORKING TITLE] with the theme I think I am writing [THEME LINE]. Output a 5-row table with columns Question, About the title, About the theme, Tension. Rows: who it is for, what it promises, what it hides, how a chorus would land, what still fights. Use only [WORKING TITLE], [THEME LINE] and [TITLE NOTES: ANYTHING ELSE I KNOW]. A second meaning, market or genre I never stated is a blank marked [VERIFY], not a guess. Do not invent those labels. Keep the table under 180 words. End with one 25-word recommendation: keep the title, change it, or narrow the theme.

💡

Pro tip: If the title is a place and the theme is a feeling, say so. That mismatch is the useful row.

Hooks and Choruses

5 prompts

Chorus Lock from Title

6/30

✨ What it does

Drafts a four-line original chorus with a note on open vowels for long notes. Sing it on one pitch and replace any [VERIFY] line with a fact from your notes.

Act as a chorus editor for an original song. Title: [SONG TITLE]. Feeling I want in the room: [FEELING]. Facts I will allow in the chorus: [ALLOWED FACTS]. Draft one chorus of 4 lines, 8 to 12 syllables each, that a crowd could shout on the last repeat. Write new lines; do not echo a published chorus. After the chorus, add a 40-word note on which vowels stay open on the long notes. If a place, clock time, promise or name is missing from [ALLOWED FACTS], write [VERIFY] on that line instead of inventing it. Output the 4 lines, then the vowel note, then a 1-line risk if the title never appears.

💡

Pro tip: List only facts you will stand behind in a room. Clap each line to confirm the syllable counts.

Five Hook Grid

7/30

✨ What it does

Builds a five-row hook grid with placement, vowel shape and a memory test. Name the most open-vowel hook, then refuse any row that still shows [VERIFY].

I need a 5-row hook grid for [SONG TITLE] using only [HOOK NOTES]. Columns: Hook (under 8 words), Where it sits (chorus downbeat, pre-chorus lift, or tag), Vowel shape, Why a stranger would remember it, Gap. Write fresh hooks; do not quote a famous line. If a hook wants a proper noun, street or brand I did not supply, leave Gap as [VERIFY] and do not invent the name. Five rows only. Under 190 words. After the table, name in one sentence the hook with the most open vowels.

💡

Pro tip: Say whether you need a shout hook or a quiet one. Placement changes which vowels survive.

Pre-Chorus Climb

8/30

✨ What it does

Walks six steps from the last verse line into a three-line pre-chorus. Read the climb out loud and fill any [VERIFY] object or promise from your notes before you sing it.

Walk me through 6 numbered steps that climb from the last line of verse 1 into the chorus of [SONG TITLE]. Verse 1 ends: [LAST VERSE LINE]. Chorus promise: [CHORUS PROMISE]. Each step names the job (withhold, lean, point, rise, land, rest) and a lyric fragment under 10 words. Write a new climb; do not lift a pre-chorus from a record. If [CHORUS PROMISE] never names what the last verse line is pointing at, write [VERIFY] on that step; do not invent a missing object or promise. After step 6, paste a 3-line pre-chorus that uses only the fragments. Whole reply under 260 words.

💡

Pro tip: Paste the real last verse line, not a summary. The climb has to leave from a specific word.

Chorus Slot Fill

9/30

✨ What it does

Fills a four-slot chorus template and explains the order in about 50 words. Keep any [VERIFY] slot empty until you add the missing street, season or hour from your life.

Complete this chorus template for [SONG TITLE]. Line 1 title hit: [SONG TITLE]. Line 2 cost: ______. Line 3 turn: ______. Line 4 title hit with a twist: ______. Fill each blank with 6 to 10 words drawn from [CHORUS NOTES]. Then print the finished 4 lines plus a 50-word why-this-order note. Finish the blanks in new words; do not paste a known lyric into a slot. If I left a street, season, hour or body unnamed, keep those slots as [VERIFY] rather than invent them. No extra lines after the note.

💡

Pro tip: Put the cost in line 2, not the title. The title hit needs something to bounce off.

Chorus for a New Ear

10/30

✨ What it does

Rewrites your chorus in four lines a new listener would actually say. Check that every workplace or city word came from your listener notes, not from a guess.

Rewrite my chorus so a new listener can feel it. Current chorus: [PASTE CHORUS]. New listener: [LISTENER]. Keep the same promise. Produce 4 lines, 8 to 12 syllables, in that listener's plain words. Then add a 40-word note on what you changed and why. Keep the rewrite in new phrasing; do not restyle this toward a famous chorus. If I never named slang, a workplace, a city or a job tool, leave that word as [VERIFY] rather than invent a local color. Output the 4 lines, then the note.

💡

Pro tip: Name a real person type, such as a night-shift nurse or a sibling who missed the fight. Vague 'anyone' rewrites stay vague.

Verses and Story

5 prompts

Verse One Camera Pass

11/30

✨ What it does

Turns scene notes into five camera-shot lyric lines, then stacks them as a verse. Where a shot is [VERIFY], skip it and walk the remaining shots in order before you add a chorus.

Walk verse 1 of [SONG TITLE] in 5 camera shots. Notes: [SCENE NOTES]. Steps: 1 wide room, 2 object on a surface, 3 a hand doing one thing, 4 a sound offscreen, 5 the last look before the chorus. For each shot write one lyric line of 8 to 12 syllables. Then print the 5 lines as a verse. A shot with no detail in [SCENE NOTES] gets [VERIFY] where the lyric would be. Skip that shot; do not invent a room, weather, object or sound to fill the camera. After the verse, a 30-word check: which shot actually moves the story.

💡

Pro tip: Name the room and one object. 'Kitchen, unwashed mug' will beat 'sad apartment' on the page.

Verse Draft Scorecard

12/30

✨ What it does

Scores a verse on chorus fit, singability and last-line hum, then rewrites it in four lines. Treat a low score as a cut list and fill every [VERIFY] beat from your scene notes.

Read my verse draft for [SONG TITLE]: [PASTE VERSE]. Score 1 to 5 on: fit with the chorus promise [CHORUS PROMISE], singability of the vowels, and whether a stranger could hum the last line. Then rewrite the verse in 4 lines, keeping every fact from [SCENE NOTES]. Point out 3 weak spots in bullets under 15 words each. A missing plot turn, new person or clock in [SCENE NOTES] is a [VERIFY] beat; leave a blank rather than invent them to raise the score. Output: 3-row score table, 3 bullets, then the 4-line rewrite. Under 280 words.

💡

Pro tip: Paste the verse you would actually sing, mistakes in. Polished fake verses score high and teach nothing.

Who Sings This

13/30

✨ What it does

Asks five questions about the singer, then returns a voice sheet and four sample lines. Keep the sample lines only if every job, city and wound is one you answered.

Interview me first about who is singing [SONG TITLE]. Pose exactly 5 questions, then wait: what they hold in their hands, who they will not call, a lie they still tell, the hour they finally left, and the one word they cannot sing yet. After I answer, write a 160-word voice sheet with headings Hands, Silence, Lie, Hour and Unsung word, then 4 sample verse lines in that voice. If age, job, city or wound never showed up in my answers, leave that heading blank with [VERIFY]. Do not invent a biography. Stop after the 4 lines.

💡

Pro tip: Answer the hands question with a real object. A voice sheet starts in the fingers, not in a biography.

Show Not Tell Checks

14/30

✨ What it does

Grades a pasted verse on eight checks, each Pass or Rewrite with a short reason. Fill every Rewrite tagged [VERIFY] from the verse itself before you call it done.

Grade this verse of [SONG TITLE] on 8 checks. Verse: [PASTE VERSE]. The 8 checks: a new time of day, a new object, a cost the chorus has not named, a line a stranger could film, a line only we would know, a dead adjective, a repeated chorus thought, and a last-line lean. Grade that verse on these 8 checks, each Pass or Rewrite with a reason under 12 words. If the verse has no time of day or new object, mark that check Rewrite and tag [VERIFY]; do not invent a clock or prop. Output the 8 items only.

💡

Pro tip: Mark the filmable line first. If nobody could point a phone at it, the verse is still a list of feelings.

List Verse Rescue

15/30

✨ What it does

Turns listed feeling words into a five-row swap table of objects, lines and fact sources. Mute leftover adjectives on the new lines and keep a row only if Fact source is not [VERIFY].

My second verse only lists feelings. Here it is: [PASTE VERSE TWO]. Feeling words to mute: [FEELING WORDS]. Scene I actually have: [SCENE NOTES]. Output a 5-row table with columns Feeling word, Object or action that shows it, Line using it, Fact source. Pull objects and actions only from [SCENE NOTES]. After the table, a 35-word adjective-mute test: strip leftover feeling words and say whether a picture remains. If a feeling has no object in [SCENE NOTES], put [VERIFY] in Fact source; do not invent a room, year or fight. Whole reply under 270 words.

💡

Pro tip: Name the list ('tired, lonely, done'). Each row has to replace those words with a room or action from your notes.

Bridges and Form

5 prompts

Contrast Bridge Draft

16/30

✨ What it does

Writes a four-line bridge that argues with the chorus, plus a note on new information. If the bridge adds a person or a city you never set up, throw that line out.

Act as a bridge writer for an original song. Verse idea: [VERSE SUMMARY]. Chorus promise: [CHORUS PROMISE]. Chorus lines: [CHORUS LINES]. Write a 4-line bridge that disagrees with the chorus without repeating its nouns. 8 to 12 syllables a line. Then a 50-word note on what new information the bridge adds. Write a new argument; do not copy a famous bridge shape from a named song. A new character, confession, city or time jump missing from [BRIDGE NOTES] gets [VERIFY]. Do not invent it. Output the 4 lines, the note, and one 12-word risk if the bridge is only louder.

💡

Pro tip: State the chorus promise in one blunt sentence. The bridge needs that sentence to push against.

Form Map with Jobs

17/30

✨ What it does

Maps intro through outro in a six-row table with story job and callbacks. Fill bar counts yourself; treat every [VERIFY] cell as homework, not as a guess to sing.

Map the form of [SONG TITLE] from my sketch: [FORM NOTES]. Key lines I already have: [KEY LINES IF ANY]. Output a 6-row table with columns Section, Job in the story, Approx length I gave, Callback to an earlier line, Gap. Rows: intro, verse 1, chorus, verse 2, bridge, outro. Draw callbacks only from [KEY LINES IF ANY]. Bar counts, repeats and callbacks I never wrote get [VERIFY] in Gap. Leave the cell empty of numbers; do not invent them. Keep the table under 200 words. Under the table, one 20-word verdict: where the story actually turns.

💡

Pro tip: If you do not know bar counts, write 'unknown' in the notes. Empty length cells should stay [VERIFY].

Three Form Layouts

18/30

✨ What it does

Offers verse-chorus, AABA and linear layouts, then picks the one that serves your story beat. Ignore any genre rule you did not write in the brackets.

Offer 3 form layouts for [SONG TITLE] given [STORY BEAT] and the limit [LIMIT]. Options must include verse-chorus, AABA, and a linear form with no repeated chorus. For each: section order in one line, who learns what and when, and a 15-word risk. Then pick the layout that best serves [STORY BEAT] and give one reason. If [LIMIT] is blank, write [VERIFY] in the risk line instead of inventing a rule. 3 bullets plus a Pick line. Under 240 words.

💡

Pro tip: Put the limit in hours or in sections you will not write. 'No third chorus' is a better limit than 'make it catchy'.

Tag and Outro Fill

19/30

✨ What it does

Completes a four-slot outro template and prints a four-line ending from words you already earned. If a callback is tagged [VERIFY], pull the object from an earlier verse instead of adding a new one.

Fill this outro template for [SONG TITLE] using only words already earned in [LYRIC SO FAR]. Tag line (repeatable, under 8 words): ______. Last image (one object): ______. Last breath (one verb): ______. Silence cue (what we stop saying): ______. Print the filled slots, then a 4-line outro that uses them, 6 to 10 syllables a line. If the callback is missing from [LYRIC SO FAR], write [VERIFY]; do not invent a last-line image that never appeared earlier. Stop after the 4 lines.

💡

Pro tip: Paste the whole lyric so far, not just the chorus. An outro that introduces a new object feels like a second song.

Two Bridges Side by Side

20/30

✨ What it does

Compares two pasted bridges on new information, vowel ease, contrast, preach risk and tired-voice sing. Pick the winner only after empty cells are filled from the real lines.

Compare these two bridges for [SONG TITLE]. Bridge A: [BRIDGE A]. Bridge B: [BRIDGE B]. Output a 5-row table with columns Test, Bridge A, Bridge B, Winner for this song. Rows: new information, vowel ease on a high note, contrast with the chorus, risk of preach, sing-it-tired test. Use only the pasted lines. If a cell has no lyric to judge, tag it [VERIFY]; do not invent a lyric that is not in A or B. Under 190 words. End with one 20-word pick.

💡

Pro tip: Paste two full bridges, not summaries. The tired-voice row only works if the actual vowels are on the page.

Rhyme and Meter

5 prompts

End Rhyme Map

21/30

✨ What it does

Maps each chorus line to an end word, scheme letter and stress count. Counts are approximate, so clap each line to confirm.

Build a rhyme-scheme table for this chorus: [PASTE CHORUS]. Columns: Line, End word, Scheme letter, Stress count (stressed syllables as written), Problem. Six rows max. Use letters A, B, C per line as a map, not a rule. If I left an end word blank, leave that cell [VERIFY]; do not invent end words I did not write. Do not swap in a prettier noun to force a rhyme. Keep the table under 170 words. After it, one 25-word note: which end word is doing the emotional work.

💡

Pro tip: Type the chorus in line breaks the way you sing it. A run-on paste hides which word actually ends the line.

Syllable Load Checks

22/30

✨ What it does

Runs seven pass-or-fail checks on chorus syllable load, consonants, held vowels and title placement. Clap each line yourself to confirm the counts, since the model can miscount.

Check my chorus for syllable load. Chorus: [PASTE CHORUS]. Target feel: [SUNG FEEL] (speech-like, or long notes). Target count: [TARGET SYLLABLES PER LINE IF KNOWN]. List 7 checks numbered: count per line, stacked consonants on a high word, closed vowel on a held note, a word that needs two notes, a pickup that crowds the downbeat, a title that lands late, a breath. Each check under 18 words and a pass or fail. If [TARGET SYLLABLES PER LINE IF KNOWN] is blank, write [VERIFY] on the count check; do not invent a count. Output the 7 checks only.

💡

Pro tip: Clap the chorus once before you paste. Your clap is the target feel; the prompt should not guess a metronome.

Line Will Not Sit

23/30

✨ What it does

Names five reasons a stuck line trips on your hummed rhythm, then offers three replacements that keep your facts. Sing all three on the hum and keep the one that leaves a rest where you marked one.

My line will not sit on the melody I hum. Line: [STUCK LINE]. Hum pattern in words: [RHYTHM IN WORDS] (say it like da-DA da-da DA). Name 5 reasons it trips (too many unstressed words, a cluster, a diphthong on a short hit, the title on a weak beat, a rest I described but the line fills). Then give 3 replacement lines that keep every fact in [LINE NOTES], 8 to 12 syllables. If the hum never described a rest, or [LINE NOTES] never named a fact, write [VERIFY] on that replacement and leave a blank, not a guess. Do not invent a rest. Under 250 words.

💡

Pro tip: Write the hum as da and DA, not as notes. If you do not read music, that pattern is enough.

Internal Rhyme Pass

24/30

✨ What it does

Walks a five-step inner-rhyme pass and reprints the section at the same line count. Cut any echo that only exists to chime, and refuse a new noun you did not write.

Run a 5-step internal rhyme pass on [PASTE SECTION] from [SONG TITLE]. Steps: 1 underline the stressed words, 2 mark any inner echo already there, 3 add at most 3 inner echoes without new facts, 4 cut any echo that feels cute, 5 print the section. Show your work in 5 numbered blocks, each under 40 words, then the rewritten section of the same line count. If an inner echo needs a noun I never wrote, skip the echo and mark [VERIFY] beside the step. Do not invent the noun to make a chime. Whole reply under 300 words.

💡

Pro tip: Paste one section, not the whole song. Inner rhyme gets noisy when verse and chorus are treated as one block.

AABB Versus ABAB

25/30

✨ What it does

Rewrites your chorus as AABB and as ABAB, four lines each, then a four-row tradeoff table, then picks one. If a version needed extra facts, it is not a fair test; fill [VERIFY] first.

Compare AABB and ABAB on this chorus draft: [PASTE CHORUS]. First print both rewritten choruses, 4 lines each, then the table. Output a 4-row table with columns Test, AABB version, ABAB version, Tradeoff. Rows: how the title lands, how the joke or wound lands, words I would have to change, what got dull. Change end words only, and list each change. Rewrite only to move my existing words; do not invent extra lines, names or facts to make a scheme fit; tag missing lines [VERIFY]. Table under 200 words. Finish with a 20-word pick for [SONG TITLE].

💡

Pro tip: If your title is the last word of line 2, say so in the paste. That is the row the two schemes will fight over.

Cuts and Rewrites

5 prompts

Full Lyric Score

26/30

✨ What it does

Scores a full lyric on title payoff, verse 2 news, bridge contrast and chorus vowels, then tables five cuts. Paste the whole song; a missing section should stay [VERIFY], not get a fake verse.

Read my full lyric draft of [SONG TITLE]: [PASTE FULL LYRIC]. Score 1 to 5 on: title payoff, verse 2 new information, bridge contrast, and singability of the chorus vowels. Then list 5 cuts in a table with columns Line, Why it stalls, Tighter version, same facts and words where possible. Absent verses, names, places or dates stay [VERIFY] rather than invented. Output the 4-row score, then the 5-row cut table. Under 320 words.

💡

Pro tip: Paste verse, chorus, verse 2, bridge and outro. A chorus-only paste cannot score verse 2 news.

Cut Pass, Keep the Story

27/30

✨ What it does

Cuts about one fifth of the words, lists five kills with counts, and returns the shorter lyric in the same sections. Check the before and after counts yourself; do not let new facts sneak in.

Cut this lyric by about one fifth of its word count without losing the story. Draft: [PASTE FULL LYRIC]. Keep [MUST KEEP LINES]. Return: a 5-bullet kill list with the word count you drop per bullet, the rewritten lyric in the same sections, and a 40-word note on what the silence now does. Shorten my lines. If a cut would leave a gap that only a new fact could fill, keep the line and write [VERIFY] on that bullet. Do not invent a replacement. Put the before and after word counts at the top.

💡

Pro tip: Mark must-keep lines first, even if they are ugly. The cut pass should not 'improve' the one true sentence.

Hole in the Song

28/30

✨ What it does

Asks five questions about holes in the song, then writes a gap memo and three next-draft tasks. Answer before you accept a task, and leave unanswered holes as [VERIFY].

Stop and ask me exactly 5 questions about what [SONG TITLE] still lacks, then wait. Lyric so far: [LYRIC SO FAR]. Ask: where the clock is, who has not spoken, what verse 2 knows that verse 1 does not, which chorus line I do not believe, and what I am afraid a room will hear. After I answer, write a 150-word gap memo with headings Clock, Missing voice, Verse 2 job, Unbelieved line and Fear, then 3 next-draft tasks under 12 words each. If I skip a question, write [VERIFY] on that heading and leave a blank, not a guess. Do not invent the missing clock, voice or fear.

💡

Pro tip: Answer the unbelieved chorus line honestly. That is usually the hole the memo should start from.

Booth Sheet

29/30

✨ What it does

Turns a pasted full lyric into a booth sheet table with section labels, repeat marks and breath marks. Check every [VERIFY] cell against the paste before you print the sheet.

Read my full lyric of [SONG TITLE]: [PASTE FULL LYRIC]. Return a booth sheet as a table with columns Section, Line as I wrote it, Repeat mark, Breath mark. One row per sung line. Label intro, verse, pre-chorus, chorus, bridge, tag and outro only where my paste already shows those names. Repeat mark is x2, x3 or blank. Breath mark is a slash where I would breathe, or blank. Use only my words; do not invent ad-libs, lines or repeats; mark gaps [VERIFY]. No word cap; keep the notes short. After the table, one 20-word note on where a singer would run out of air.

💡

Pro tip: Paste the lyric with the section names you already use. Empty labels should stay [VERIFY], not get new names.

Co-write One-Page Checks

30/30

✨ What it does

Builds an eight-item co-write checklist plus a 40-word opener you can say when you sit down. Read it aloud in two minutes and strike any item that names a person you did not put in the notes.

Before a co-write on [SONG TITLE], build an 8-item one-page checklist I can read aloud in two minutes. Notes I have: [PREP NOTES]. Cover: promise in one sentence, title, who sings, images I will not drop, lines I will not move, questions I still have, a scene I have not written, and what I want from the other writer. Each item under 18 words. If [PREP NOTES] never name a co-writer, prior line or date, that checklist item is [VERIFY]. Leave it blank; do not invent a partner or a date. Output 8 numbered items, then a 40-word opener I can say when we sit down.

💡

Pro tip: Put the lines you will not move in the notes. A co-write without a fence spends the first hour on your only true sentence.

Frequently Asked Questions

No prompt can guarantee a line is unique. Search any line that sounds familiar in quotes, and cut it if you find a match.
Paste your own notes: the room, the object, the fight, the title you already like. Leave music facts blank if you do not know them so the model can tag [VERIFY] instead of guessing a place, date or name.
Sing the result on one note, then on your melody. If a line needs a place, date or name you never typed, that is a [VERIFY] hole: fill it from your life or cut the line.
Yes. The rhyme and meter prompts work from lines you paste, not from notation. Count syllables on your fingers as you sing, and ignore any scheme that needs extra facts you did not write.
Treat anything you paste as shared with the service. Check your privacy and data settings, and keep unreleased lines you cannot afford to leak, plus private names, out of the chat.
