How it works

boris-prompts

When your agent uses it

Write a high-quality prompt for any LLM or AI assistant — Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, or any coding / chat agent. Use this skill whenever the user asks to write, improve, refine, shorten, or rewrite a prompt; asks "how should I phrase this for [model]" or "what's a good prompt for [task]"; describes a task they want an AI to do but hasn't yet formulated it as a prompt; or pastes an existing prompt and asks for revision. Based on Boris's (Anthropic, Claude Code creator) prompt methodology — short and accurate prompts, plan-before-code, feedback loops, persistent context in files. The universal principles (short, plan-first, feedback-loop, no-padding) apply to any LLM; the Claude-Code-specific anchors (CLAUDE.md, @file, slash commands) only apply when the target is Claude Code. If the user's intent is unclear (target model, deliverable, scope, or whether the AI has a way to self-verify is missing), ask 1–3 targeted clarifying questions via AskUserQuestion before writing the prompt.
