## How To Use Starter Prompts
|
|
1. Copy one prompt that matches your task.
|
|
2. Replace placeholders (file names, functions, constraints).
|
|
3. Keep the request focused on one outcome.
|
|
|
|
## Understand Existing Code
|
|
Example prompt:
|
|
```text
|
|
Summarize this file in 5 bullets and list 2 risks.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Safe Refactoring
|
|
Example prompt:
|
|
```text
|
|
Refactor this function to remove duplication. Keep behavior the same.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Testing
|
|
Example prompt:
|
|
```text
|
|
List tests I should add for this change.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Planning
|
|
Example prompt:
|
|
```text
|
|
Create a 5-step plan to split this class into smaller components. Wait for approval before edits.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Debugging
|
|
Example prompt:
|
|
```text
|
|
Explain this error and propose the top 3 fixes in priority order.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
