Plan before you prompt

Before you start prompting, take a moment to plan. Think through the application’s structure, key features, and user flow, much like a product manager or engineer would. Having a clear plan will help you write more targeted and effective...

Specify

Define outputs and constraints

Be explicit about your requirements and expectations. Define the desired output format, specify any constraints (like using a particular library), and mention important edge cases the AI should consider. The more specific you are, the better the...

Simplify

Be clear and concise

Communicate with the AI using clear, straightforward language. Avoid unnecessary jargon or overly complex sentences. Breaking down your request into simple steps or bullet points can greatly improve the AI’s understanding. - Why it matters:...

Show

Provide examples and demonstrations

Sometimes, the best way to explain what you want is to show an example. Provide code snippets illustrating a style, sample data structures, or even upload screenshots of a UI element you want the AI to replicate. This helps eliminate ambiguity. -...

Select

Curate relevant context

Give the AI the specific information it needs for the task at hand, but avoid flooding it with irrelevant details. Use features like file mentioning to focus the AI’s attention. If switching to a completely different task, starting a New chat can...

Experiment

Iterate and refine

Your first prompt might not yield the perfect result, and that’s okay. Prompting is a conversation. If the AI’s response isn’t quite right, try rephrasing your request, adding more detail, or simplifying the language. Small adjustments can lead to...

Discover

Ask about possibilities

Don’t hesitate to ask Agent or Assistant for advice. If you’re unsure about the best library for a task or different ways to approach a feature, ask! This is a great way to learn about new tools or techniques relevant to your project. - Why it...

Debug

Provide contextual clues

When errors pop up, treat the AI like a collaborator who needs information to help. Go beyond saying “it’s broken” and provide specific details about the problem, including error messages and the relevant code sections, so the AI can effectively...

Checkpoint

Build incrementally

Instead of asking the AI to build your entire application at once, break the project down into smaller, logical steps. Approach development iteratively, confirming each piece works before moving on. This mirrors traditional development cycles and...

Tips

Effective prompting isn’t about complex linguistic tricks; it’s about clarity, context, and iteration. Here are the key principles to remember when interacting with Agent and Assistant.
