Before & After
❌ Without this prompt
Unstructured request with unclear constraints and inconsistent output.
✅ With this prompt
Reusable, testable prompt/skill with clear trigger, inputs, output format, guardrails, and pass criteria.
Install Instructions
Copy the prompt text. Paste into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any AI chat. Fill in bracketed placeholders with your details. Run and review output.
Test It
Test command:
Trigger with: 'Test the Automation Opportunity Scanner with this input: [provide a short real example]'. Confirm output is specific, structured, and useful.
Expected output:
Recommended first pilot: automate first-draft client reporting because the inputs are structured, the task repeats weekly, and a human can review before sending.
Pass criteria:
- Output is specific to the input provided — not generic. Output follows the stated format and length. No invented statistics, facts, prices, or dates. Placeholders are not left unfilled.
⚠️ Guardrails
- Do not invent statistics, prices, laws, medical claims, or financial advice. Do not leave placeholders unfilled in output. Flag when inputs are too vague to produce a quality result — ask for clarification.
📁 Context File Tip

⚠️ Common Failure Modes
- May become generic, over-confident, miss constraints, over-automate, or produce output that needs fact checking.
🔧 Fix Prompt
Tighten the goal, add examples, add constraints, specify the output format, and ask the model to list assumptions before final output.
