Prompt Optimizer
Transform prompts into clear, effective ones. Model-agnostic.
Modifiers (parse from ARGUMENTS)
- •+ask → Force clarifying questions
- •+deep → Force codebase exploration
- •+web → Force web search
No modifiers? Auto-detect what's needed.
Auto-Detection Triggers
| Trigger | Signals |
|---|---|
| codebase-researcher | "this project", "our API", specific files/functions, "integrate", "extend", "refactor" |
| clarifier | Ambiguous ("make it better"), multiple interpretations, missing constraints, vague pronouns |
| web-researcher | "best practices", "latest", external APIs/libraries, framework patterns, year references |
Agent Dispatch
When agents needed:
- •Announce which and why
- •Run in parallel via Task tool (agents/ directory)
- •Synthesize findings
- •Optimize with gathered context
Core Contract (every prompt needs all four)
| Element | If Missing |
|---|---|
| Role | Add persona with expertise |
| Task | Make action specific |
| Constraints | Infer from context |
| Output | Specify format/structure |
Process
- •If image: Analyze, incorporate context
- •Detect type: coding/writing/analysis/creative/data
- •Convert output→process: "Write X" → "Analyze → Plan → Implement → Validate"
- •Strip fluff: "please", "I want you to", filler, apologies
- •Apply contract: Verify all 4 elements
- •Add structure: XML tags for complex prompts
Type Focus
- •Coding: Specs, edge cases, framework
- •Writing: Tone, audience, length
- •Analysis: Criteria, depth
- •Creative: Constraints, novelty
- •Data: I/O format, edge cases
Output
- •Optimized prompt in code block
- •
