About Claude Prompts

Claude Prompts is Claude platform documentation about prompt engineering. It explains when prompt engineering is the right approach and provides prompting techniques and interactive tutorials.

It covers prompting best practices including clarity, examples, XML structuring, role prompting, thinking, and prompt chaining, with guidance on defining success criteria and building evaluations. It assumes users have success criteria, a way to test against them, and a draft prompt, and notes that some goals such as latency and cost are sometimes better addressed by selecting a different model.

Claude Prompts FAQ

When should I use prompt engineering?
When success criteria are controllable through prompt engineering. Latency and cost can sometimes be improved more easily by selecting a different model.
What do I need before starting prompt engineering?
A clear definition of success criteria, ways to empirically test against those criteria, and a first draft prompt to improve.
What if I do not have a first draft prompt?
Generate one with the metaprompt recipe from the Claude Cookbook.
Is something wrong or out of date?
