Prompt Design
Prompt design specifies the task, context, boundaries, and expected response from a model. Treat the instructions as a versioned part of the application and evaluate the effect of changes on representative examples.
Use the field notes below to connect prompt design with the decisions in your own integration. Begin with a concrete task and the questions you need to answer; note the assumptions that still require confirmation in the provider’s documentation. Each guide provides a distinct explanation, practical examples, and an official source for further reading.
