Definitions

  1. The act of rewriting a prompt to improve clarity, control behavior, reduce ambiguity, or adapt to a different model or workflow. Prompt rewriting is common when migrating systems or addressing repeated failure patterns.

    In plain English: Changing the wording or structure of a prompt to make it work better.

    Example: "A small prompt rewriting pass fixed the extraction errors because the original request mixed output instructions with long narrative context."
