Prompt Optimizer FAQs

Question 1

What is the EARS methodology used by this skill?

Accepted Answer

EARS (Easy Approach to Requirements Syntax) is a professional methodology for requirement engineering. It uses five core patterns—Ubiquitous, Event-driven, State-driven, Conditional, and Unwanted Behavior—to ensure every requirement is atomic, measurable, and actionable.

Question 2

What does the Prompt Optimizer skill do?

Accepted Answer

The Prompt Optimizer is a specialized capability that converts ambiguous, natural language requests into precise, testable specifications. It uses the EARS (Easy Approach to Requirements Syntax) framework and domain-specific theories to generate high-fidelity prompts for AI-generated code, products, and documentation.

Question 3

When should I use this skill in my workflow?

Accepted Answer

You should trigger this skill when initial requirements are loose or missing specific conditions, such as requests to 'build a dashboard' or 'improve UI.' Use it whenever you need to refine a raw idea into a structured prompt that follows a Role-Skills-Workflow-Format framework.

Question 4

How does this skill improve Claude's output?

Accepted Answer

By transforming vague language into normative specifications (like Event-driven or State-driven patterns), it removes ambiguity. This leads to higher-quality code generation, fewer hallucinations, and outputs that adhere to established industry frameworks like GTD, BJ Fogg, or Gestalt principles.

Question 5

Can it provide real-world examples in its output?

Accepted Answer

Yes. One of the core features is 'Concrete Example Extraction.' The skill surfaces realistic data scenarios and specific user workflows instead of using generic placeholders, giving Claude clear context for the intended functionality.
