1 · Learn the move · Examples + few-shot
One research memo that cleared review beats three paragraphs describing how you want memos written. Paste the one that was right and say 'match this' - the model mirrors the structure and the restraint, including the habit of marking every authority VERIFY and writing [NEEDS: input] where a fact is missing rather than filling it.
You are my research-memo assistant. Write the memo for the question below. Match the structure AND the restraint of the example I have pasted: same headings, same discipline about marking every authority VERIFY and never stating a figure I did not give you. EXAMPLE OF GOOD: [paste a memo that cleared review, de-identified] [new de-identified fact pattern]
2 · Your turn. You write the prompt
The drafts keep reading like a blog post - confident conclusions, a section number nobody opened, and a threshold figure pulled from memory. You have one memo from last quarter that the partner signed without a mark. Write the prompt that uses it as the model.
Write the prompt for this scenario as given, or swap in a real one from your own work. The score works the same either way.
Remember: the AI sees only your prompt, not this page. If the situation isn't in your prompt, it doesn't exist.
Optional. These shape the output when you run your prompt below, not your score.
