Prompt Shelf

About

What this shelf is, where the prompts come from, and what they are not.

Every prompt here came out of real work: an edit that kept coming back, a code review that missed the same class of bug, a landing page that nobody read. Each one is written to fix a specific failure, not to sound clever.

What is inside

Six categories, six prompts, and that is deliberate. A library of two hundred variations is a library nobody reads. Prompts are added when the same problem shows up twice.

Each page has the prompt in a copyable block, the variables it expects, and a short note on when it fails.

What these are not

They are not jailbreaks and not “best prompts”. They assume a capable model and a person who will read the output before shipping it. Nothing here produces facts on its own: every claim still needs a source.

Using them

Copy the block, fill the {{variables}}, run it. If a result is bland, the usual cause is a vague variable, not the model. Replace {{audience}} with a role and a situation instead of a demographic.
