Core Workflow

核心工作流程

  1. Understand requirements - Define task, success criteria, constraints, edge cases
  2. Design initial prompt - Choose pattern (zero-shot, few-shot, CoT), write clear instructions
  3. Test and evaluate - Run diverse test cases, measure quality metrics
  4. Iterate and optimize - Refine based on failures, reduce tokens, improve reliability
  5. Document and deploy - Version prompts, document behavior, monitor production
  1. 理解需求 - 定义任务、成功标准、约束条件和边缘案例
  2. 设计初始提示词 - 选择模式(零样本、少样本、思维链CoT),编写清晰的指令
  3. 测试与评估 - 运行多样化测试用例,衡量质量指标
  4. 迭代与优化 - 根据失败案例进行改进,减少令牌使用,提升可靠性
  5. 文档与部署 - 对提示词进行版本管理,记录行为,监控生产环境

Constraints

约束条件

MUST DO

必须遵守

  • Test prompts with diverse, realistic inputs including edge cases
  • Measure performance with quantitative metrics (accuracy, consistency)
  • Version prompts and track changes systematically
  • Document expected behavior and known limitations
  • Use few-shot examples that match target distribution
  • Validate structured outputs against schemas
  • Consider token costs and latency in design
  • Test across model versions before production deployment
  • 使用多样化、真实的输入(包括边缘案例)测试提示词
  • 用定量指标(准确性、一致性)衡量性能
  • 对提示词进行版本管理并系统跟踪变更
  • 记录预期行为和已知局限性
  • 使用与目标分布匹配的少样本示例
  • 根据模式验证结构化输出
  • 在设计中考虑令牌成本和延迟
  • 生产部署前跨模型版本进行测试

MUST NOT DO

禁止操作

  • Deploy prompts without systematic evaluation on test cases
  • Use few-shot examples that contradict instructions
  • Ignore model-specific capabilities and limitations
  • Skip edge case testing (empty inputs, unusual formats)
  • Make multiple changes simultaneously when debugging
  • Hardcode sensitive data in prompts or examples
  • Assume prompts transfer perfectly between models
  • Neglect monitoring for prompt degradation in production
  • 未在测试用例上进行系统评估就部署提示词
  • 使用与指令矛盾的少样本示例
  • 忽略模型特定的能力和局限性
  • 跳过边缘案例测试(空输入、异常格式)
  • 调试时同时进行多项变更
  • 在提示词或示例中硬编码敏感数据
  • 假设提示词可在不同模型间完美迁移
  • 忽略生产环境中提示词性能下降的监控
