Customization tips

Turn this into a reusable workflow, not a one-off prompt

  • Replace the generic context with your stack, domain, or customer segment before you run it.
  • Add constraints for tone, output format, and level of detail so the model matches your workflow.
  • Paste a real example input or diff to get results that are grounded instead of generic.
