I added the custom instruction "Please go straight to the point, be less chatty". Now it begins every answer with: "Straight to the point, no fluff:" or something similar. It seems to be perfectly unable to simply write out the answer without some form of small talk first.

Aren't these still essentially completion models under the hood?

If so, my understanding for these preambles is that they need a seed to complete their answer.

Since switching to robot mode I haven’t seen it say “no fluff”. Good god I hate it when it says no fluff.
