A compact open-source prompt pack for Chat-Ception: a recursive chain of realistic mobile screenshots:
- Instagram DM screenshot with a realistic Coca-Cola photo
- ChatGPT app screenshot containing the Instagram DM image
- ChatGPT Thinking screenshot containing the previous ChatGPT image
- Reddit post screenshot containing the nested ChatGPT image
- Final ChatGPT screenshot containing the Reddit screenshot
The prompts are written to emphasize realistic iPhone proportions, readable text, authentic app-like spacing, and clean English-only UI details.
| # | Prompt | File |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Instagram DM screenshot | prompts/01-instagram-dm-screenshot.md |
| 2 | ChatGPT app showing the Instagram DM image | prompts/02-chatgpt-app-instagram-dm-image.md |
| 3 | ChatGPT Thinking screenshot with nested ChatGPT image | prompts/03-chatgpt-thinking-nested-image.md |
| 4 | Reddit post containing the nested image | prompts/04-reddit-post-nested-image.md |
| 5 | Final ChatGPT screenshot containing the Reddit screenshot | prompts/05-final-chatgpt-reddit-screenshot.md |
For the easiest copy-and-paste workflow, use prompts/all-prompts.md. It shows each reference image followed immediately by a copyable prompt code block.
The prompt files include matching reference images in sequence:
Reference images are visual examples only. The written prompt is the source of truth, and generated outputs may differ from the reference image in small UI, wording, layout, timing, battery, or nested-detail choices.
Each individual prompt file also uses the same layout: reference image first, copyable prompt directly underneath.
Use each prompt as a standalone image-generation prompt, or generate them in order to preserve the recursive visual logic.
Recommended sequence:
- Generate Prompt 1 first.
- Use the resulting image as the embedded reference for Prompt 2.
- Use the Prompt 2 result as the nested reference for Prompt 3.
- Use the Prompt 3 result inside Prompt 4.
- Use the Prompt 4 result inside Prompt 5.
For the cleanest results, keep the output format vertical, iPhone-like, and screenshot-first. Avoid adding poster composition, marketing layout, watermarks, captions, or extra UI.
