What’s the best way to debug or iterate on a failed prompt?

Quick Answer

Test varied wordings, add/remove context, and simplify steps until output improves.

If a prompt fails, rephrase it, break complex tasks apart, add target examples, and tweak context or output requirements. Use trial and error to refine until success.​
