§ the full brief

set the voice before you ask.

Four coasters. The four parts of every good prompt — broken down so you stop writing walls of text and start getting useful outputs.

The set

Coaster 1 — Role · "You are..." Senior engineer, harsh critic, patient teacher, 5-year-old asking "why?"
Coaster 2 — Context · "Given this..." @file, @docs, @web, code blocks. Garbage context = garbage answer.
Coaster 3 — Task · "Your job is to..." Write, review, refactor, explain, compare.
Coaster 4 — Output · "Return as..." JSON, markdown, code only, word limits, diffs.
