What is
Prompt Engineering?

The practice of crafting LLM inputs to produce better, more reliable outputs.

Definition

Prompt engineering is the disciplined craft of structuring instructions, examples, and context so the model produces the desired output. It includes techniques like few-shot examples, chain-of-thought prompting, role assignment, output format specifications, and prompt caching. As models improve, prompt engineering becomes less brittle but no less important — the prompt is your spec.

Example

A customer support assistant whose prompt includes 3 example interactions, a tone-of-voice section, and explicit refusal rules.
