Customer support AI fails in predictable ways. The right system prompt prevents most of them. Here are the patterns that work and the mistakes that create problems.

How to test prompts systematically - defining test sets and success criteria, building golden datasets for regression testing, A/B testing in production, statistical significance, and the minimum viable setup for small teams.

Chain of Density produces better summaries by iteratively densifying a sparse draft. Each pass adds missing information without increasing length. Here is how it works.

A practical guide to system prompt security - understanding extraction and injection attacks, defense layers that actually work, and the fundamental truth that system prompts cannot be cryptographically secured.

Prompts in production need versioning, testing, and rollback capability just like code. Here is the system that prevents silent regressions when you improve a prompt.

The science of choosing few-shot examples - diversity, representativeness, ambiguity, relevance, dynamic selection, negative examples, ordering effects, and the empirical 3-5 example sweet spot from Brown et al. 2020.

Models default to generic structures, hedging phrases, and formulaic openings. Negative prompts tell them what not to do and break those patterns effectively.

How to write prompts that produce reliable, consistent classification labels - covering category definitions, JSON output, multi-label vs single-label, confidence scores, and when to use zero-shot vs few-shot vs fine-tuning.

A complete guide to extracting structured data from text with LLMs - field definitions, JSON schemas, function calling for guaranteed structure, missing field handling, batch efficiency, and accuracy limits.
