Prompt rewrite

Ground the guest notice

Live or online · 12 min · O1

Rewrite the weak prompt so the notice is grounded in the policy sheet and every gap becomes a question.

Cape Harbor Inn policy sheet (fictional): Check-in 3:00 PM; check-out 11:00 AM. Early check-in from 1:00 PM, $25, when available. Shuttle to Chatham ferry dock 8:15 and 10:15 AM daily. Pets: two dogs up to 40 lb, garden rooms only, $35/night; no cats. Cancellation: full refund up to 7 days before arrival; within 7 days, first night charged. Lantern Room breakfast 7:00-10:00 AM; gluten-free on request. Pool closed for resurfacing May 1-21.

Weak prompt
Write a friendly notice to guests about our pool closure and anything else they should know this May.
Hints (5)
  • Paste the sheet between markers and say 'use only'.
  • Name the reader and the length.
  • Require 'not in source' and a Gaps line.
  • Limit the job: the pool closure, plus what guests can do instead only if the sheet says so.
  • Add: do not add facts in later rounds.
Scenario

The helpful polish round

Live or online · 10 min · O1

Branching: the AI's polish round adds something.

  1. Round 2 produced an accurate notice. In round 3 you ask: 'Make it warmer and shorter.' The new version adds: 'As a thank-you, enjoy a free breakfast in the Lantern Room!' What do you do?

Which round fixes it?

Each problem below shows up in a draft. Drag it to the round where it should be fixed.

Buckets: Round 1: OutlineRound 2: Fill from sourceRound 3: Polish
  1. The notice covers breakfast hours but the job was the pool closure
  2. The closure dates say May 1-12 instead of May 1-21
  3. The notice is 240 words; you asked for 90
  4. A section heading for 'Spa services' appears; the inn has no spa
  5. The tone sounds like a legal disclaimer
  6. The early check-in fee is missing although the outline included it
