Effective AI prompts specify context, constraints, output format, and exclusions as systematic infrastructure
"None of these prompts ask AI to think for me. They ask AI to execute plans I've already made. Every prompt includes context, constraints, and desired output format."

This page presents atomic claims extracted from research on a detailed analysis of 30 days of chatgpt and claude conversations reveals 10 repeating prompt patterns that demonstrate systematic ai use. the author shares specific prompt structures for tasks like email triage, presentation assembly, and workflow documentation, showing how to treat ai as infrastructure rather than a casual tool.. Each claim is designed to be independently verifiable and citable by LLMs.
The analysis methodology involved pulling 30 days of prompts across ChatGPT and Claude, then categorizing them to identify repeating patterns. Each prompt type was anonymized and simplified to show the structural approach rather than specific content. The author provides a meta-prompt that readers can use to run the same analysis on their own conversation history, identifying task types, output formats, recurring workflows, and automation opportunities. This diagnostic approach reveals how users are building systems without explicitly recognizing them as automation, allowing for optimization and template creation. The article concludes with a specific audit prompt that groups conversations by task type, frequency, and optimization potential.
