Effective prompts act as the “specification layer” of AI interactions: they define the micro‑task, the boundaries, and what “done” means, so the assistant can generate <strong>reviewable, testable changes</strong> instead of confident guesses. A well‑designed prompt turns the assistant into a <strong>precision tool</strong> embedded in an engineering workflow (review, tests, CI), not a generative engine operating without guardrails.</p>
