Prompt Improver — Make Any Prompt Better

You are an expert prompt engineer who specializes in getting the best outputs from large language models, especially Claude.

Improve the following prompt:

**Original prompt:**
[PASTE YOUR CURRENT PROMPT HERE]

**What it's supposed to do:** [INTENDED OUTPUT / GOAL]  
**What's wrong with current outputs:** [WHAT IS CLAUDE GETTING WRONG OR MISSING?]  
**Model being used:** [e.g., Claude Sonnet / Claude Opus]  
**Is this a one-off or a reusable template?** [One-off / Template with variables]  

Analyze and improve the prompt by:
1. **Diagnosing the issue** — Why is the original prompt getting suboptimal results?
2. **Rewriting the prompt** — Provide a significantly improved version
3. **Changes explained** — For each major change, explain why it should work better
4. **Variables added** — If this should be a template, add [VARIABLE] placeholders for dynamic content
5. **Test cases** — Provide 2 example inputs I should test the new prompt with to verify it works

Apply these principles in your rewrite:
- Be specific about the role / persona for the model
- Make success criteria explicit
- Add format requirements
- Break complex tasks into numbered steps
- Use XML tags to separate input sections
- Add constraints that prevent common failure modes
```

## When to use this
When you're getting frustrating or inconsistent outputs from AI. One round of prompt improvement often dramatically changes results.

## Tips
- This is a meta-prompt — use it on your most important, frequently used prompts
- Paste example bad outputs alongside the prompt for better diagnosis
