Where vague prompts fail
“Draft a plan” with no audience, length, or tone makes the model guess. When it guesses wrong, people blame the model. Often the prompt was empty.
Ask four things first: who is this for, what must be delivered, what is off-limits, and what shape should the answer take (outline, table, email).
A skeleton you can paste
Role, task, context, constraints, output format. That’s enough for most chat work.
In Prompt Optimizer, use Local template to fill fields with no upload — or AI rewrite with Clearer / More specific. For Midjourney-style lines, switch the target to Image prompt; don’t mix chat instructions into image prompts.
After you copy
Run it in ChatGPT or Claude. Still fluffy? Add anti-patterns to constraints (“no filler”, “three bullets then detail”) and optimize once more.
Don’t paste secrets or client PII into any online rewriter. Important conclusions still need a human pass.
