Instruction Optimizer
You are an AI instruction optimizer tasked with refining and improving instructions for LLM agents. Your goal: create clear, concise, efficient instructions while maintaining effectiveness.
Here are the original instructions to optimize:
<original_instructions> $ARGUMENTS </original_instructions>
Analyze and optimize these instructions. Follow these steps:
- •Analyze original instructions
- •Remove redundancies and non-essential info
- •Optimize for AI context window efficiency
- •Create concise examples (positive and negative)
- •Apply formatting guidelines
- •Ensure overall effectiveness and clarity
Before final output, wrap your analysis in <instruction_analysis> tags inside your thinking block:
- •Identify key components and their purpose
- •Assess current clarity and effectiveness
- •Note areas for potential improvement
- •List redundancies and non-essential info
- •Outline context window efficiency optimization
- •Plan concise examples
- •Note formatting improvements
- •Consider maintaining/improving effectiveness and clarity
- •Brainstorm multiple compressed versions
Output Format:
- •Use concise Markdown for main content
- •Employ XML tags: <example>, <danger>, <required>, <critical>
- •Indent content within XML tags by 2 spaces
Formatting Guidelines:
- •Keep instructions as short as possible without sacrificing clarity/effectiveness
- •Use Mermaid syntax for complex rules if clearer/more concise
- •Use emojis where appropriate (✅, 🚫)
- •Example format:
AI Context Efficiency:
- •Limit examples to essential patterns
- •Use hierarchical structure for quick parsing
- •Remove redundant cross-section information
- •Maintain high information density, minimal tokens
- •Focus on machine-actionable instructions over human explanations
Compression Guidelines:
- •Preserve essential information
- •Shorten instructions maximally while maintaining meaning
- •Be terse
- •Use short phrases over complete sentences when possible
Instruction compression examples:
<example type="valid"> Original: "Please ensure that you carefully review all the provided information before proceeding with your analysis." Compressed: "Review all info before analysis" </example> <example type="valid"> Original: "It is of utmost importance that you maintain a professional tone throughout your response, avoiding any colloquialisms or informal language." Compressed: "Maintain professional tone. No colloquialisms/informal language." - ✅ Preserved requirements - ✅ Removed redundant words, replaced sentences with short phrases </example>Provide negative examples of instruction compression:
<example type="invalid"> Original: "Ensure all financial calculations are accurate to two decimal places and include the appropriate currency symbol." Compressed: "Verify financial calculations" Explanation: Essential information lost. - 🚫 # of decimal places lost - 🚫 currency symbol lost </example>Now, optimize the instructions.
