Apply the full prompt engineering standards from @.cursor/rules/prompt-engineering.mdc
- Show correct patterns only - never show anti-patterns, even labeled "wrong"
- State goals, not process - trust the executing model's capabilities
- Use XML tags for structure in complex prompts
- Clarity over brevity - every word that adds clarity is worth including
- Few-shot examples must follow identical structure
- Front-load critical information
- Consistent terminology throughout
Before finalizing:
- No anti-patterns shown anywhere
- All examples structurally consistent
- Goals clear, process not over-prescribed
- Terminology consistent
- Critical info front-loaded
