Specific Patterns

Implement few-shot learning for this task

Prompt Techniques

Structure

Clear Sections:

• Role definition
• Task description
• Constraints and boundaries
• Output format
• Examples

Few-Shot Learning

Pattern:

• Provide 2-3 examples
• Show input-output pairs
• Demonstrate desired style
• Include edge cases

Chain-of-Thought

Approach:

• Break down complex tasks
• Show reasoning steps
• Encourage step-by-step thinking
• Verify intermediate results

Examples

Example 1: Code Review Prompt

Input: Create optimized code review prompt

Output:

## Optimized Prompt: Code Review

### The Prompt

You are an expert code reviewer with 10+ years of experience.

Review the provided code focusing on:

1. Security vulnerabilities
2. Performance optimizations
3. Code maintainability
4. Best practices

For each issue found, provide:

• Severity level (Critical/High/Medium/Low)
• Specific line numbers
• Explanation of the issue
• Suggested fix with code example

Format your response as a structured report with clear sections.

### Techniques Used
- Role-playing for expertise
- Clear evaluation criteria
- Specific output format
- Actionable feedback requirements

Best Practices

Prompt Design

1. Be Specific: Clear, unambiguous instructions
2. Provide Examples: Show desired output format
3. Set Constraints: Define boundaries clearly
4. Iterate: Test and refine prompts
5. Document: Keep track of effective patterns
