Your prompt

Build my emergency fund target from my actual expenses, not the generic 3-6 month rule.

Monthly fixed costs: [list: rent/mortgage, insurance, debt minimums, utilities, subscriptions]
Monthly true variable essentials: [groceries, transport, childcare]
Risk factors: [job stability, single/dual income, health issues, dependents]

Deliver: (1) my lean monthly number (survival mode), (2) my comfortable monthly number, (3) recommended fund target in dollars and in months of each, (4) where to park it (checking vs HYSA vs money market) given I need it in [X] days, (5) a savings schedule: how much per month to hit the target by [date].

Paste it into Muse or any assistant. Blank fields stay as [brackets].
