The article explores four prompt engineering techniques for Anthropic's Claude models, primarily focusing on Claude Sonnet 5.5, based on Anthropic's own documentation. These patterns aim to improve model performance and efficiency by explicitly defining task scope, ensuring proof of work through checks, nudging the model to reason before answering, and establishing a clear output contract. While the author did not independently verify the results, Anthropic reports suggest these methods can reduce costs, improve accuracy, and minimize unwanted behaviors like extra review rounds or skipped tests.
