Stop Guessing With Support Prompts

You don't need a hundred support prompts. You need five you trust and actually reuse.

Reuse the recipe

Write down what you never want as explicitly as what you do. The exclusions often do more work than the instructions.

• Compare two outputs instead of trusting one
• Keep one ask per prompt — chaining beats cramming
• Have the model flag what it could not cover

Anchor to one reader

Treat the first output as a draft, not a verdict. The prompt does the typing; you keep the judgment about what ships.
