The six-part prompt skeleton

Rung 1 of 10 · RTO — Role · Task · Output

The long version: Prompting: role, task, output ↗

Try it first · RTO — Role · Task · Output

Write the prompt you would actually use for the situation below and score it. The move behind this lesson, with a worked example, opens after your first score. You will remember it better for having tried.

Your turn

Take a task you asked AI to do this week that came back wrong. Name what was missing, then rewrite the request adding only the parts that fix it. Then try a second, simple task and write the shortest request that works — which parts didn't it need?

Remember: the AI sees only your prompt — not this page. If the situation isn't in your prompt, it doesn't exist.
