The prompt

Rewrite the error messages and small UI text in my app or website so users know what happened and what to do. Product: [ ] Users: [technical or not, languages] Current messages (paste them, with where they appear): [e.g. 'Error 403', 'Invalid input', 'Something went wrong', 'Session expired'] Voice: [friendly / neutral / formal] For each message give: 1. The new message: what happened, in plain words, and what the user can do next, in 1-2 short sentences. 2. Button or link text for the next step. 3. A note if the error needs a code for support (keep the code, but at the end, e.g. 'Ref: 403'). Rules: don't blame the user ('You entered wrong data'), no jokes on serious errors (payments, data loss), no technical jargon, and never reveal security details (e.g. don't say whether an email exists on login failure). Also write: 5 empty states, 3 loading messages and 3 success confirmations that fit the same voice.
