Description: This is the base system prompt with some elements of it truncated. This will lead to a worse level of accuracy for basic functions (scene crafting, instructions) but will save tokens. If you favor modules over base functions this prompt is good.

The difference between this system prompt and the base prompt is generally minimal, and more intended for users of JLLM or token-conscious users.
