- In short
- Output deficiencies are diagnostic signals that point back to a specific prompt component. Generic or off-base output points to thin context, output that answers the wrong question points to an ambiguous task verb, and output with the wrong length, tone, or shape points to a missing constraint or output format. Output that is close but wrong in one section calls for iterating on that section, not discarding the whole draft.
