Sharing a few of my favorite prompt snippets for coding:
For iterating on a spec:
Please step back and think again. How can we make this SIMPLER and DUMBER while still achieving our goals?
For planning:
Please research the codebase to make sure you fully understand how stuff currently works, and make a detailed plan to achieve the above.
Your plan must be fully fleshed out and include only concrete actions such as editing files and running commands (ie. your plan cannot include actions like “read this file”).
Your plan must also include how you will verify it is correct yourself, end-to-end.
Don’t make any code changes yet. Research now as much as you need and then chat back with your full plan when ready.
For debugging:
Please think carefully and truth seek. Don't just blindly re-run things and hope they will work. Read the code, and liberally add temporary logging statements anywhere in the codebase to verify logic works as you expect (just remember to not commit them). Dig deep and take the time to really figure out the root causes of problems.
