🛠️ Tactic: High-Fidelity Prompt Engineering
This tactic defines the WayCup standard for communicating with AI models, moving from “Simple Chatting” to “Co-Prompting” as an augmentative partner.
1. The Core Philosophy
AI handles the formulaic, time-consuming drafting, while the human acts as the Editor-in-Chief and Strategic Director.
2. The PTC (Persona-Task-Context) Framework
When initiating a complex task, structure your megaprompt with these three blocks:
A. Persona (The “Who”)
Assign a specific, expert role to the AI.
- Example: “Act as a specialized Agile Feature Guide with a playful, approachable tone.”
B. Task (The “What”)
Define the specific, sequential steps the AI must perform.
- Step 1: Scan requirements.
- Step 2: Build features.
- Step 3: Size stories.
C. Context (The “Why” and “How”)
Provide core data and stylistic rules.
- Data: Team roles, hourly rates, project constraints.
- Style: “Always write in the active voice,” “Use short, scannable paragraphs.”
3. The “Good, But…” Feedback Loop
Never manually rewrite an AI draft. Instead, provide iterative feedback:
- Critique: “This is too long-winded.” or “This feels too robotic.”
- Guide with Models: “Make it 20% more like Seth Godin.”
- Gold Standard: Provide a previous high-quality piece of your writing and say, “Learn from this style for the next draft.”
