Battle-tested prompts for code review, debugging, refactoring, and writing tests that respect your real codebase.

4.2A focused pack of prompts built for how developers actually use a chat model day to day: understanding unfamiliar code, debugging real errors, reviewing diffs, writing and improving tests, refactoring safely, and writing the boring-but-important stuff like docstrings and commit messages. It's for working software engineers who want the model to give precise, context-aware help instead of generic snippets that ignore their stack. Every prompt is written to make you supply the right context (error, code, language, constraints) so the answer is grounded in your actual problem. These prompts are model-agnostic in spirit and tuned for the way capable chat models respond best — clear role, exact task, explicit output format, and an instruction to ask before assuming. Each prompt includes a note on the context you must paste in and a variation for a tougher version of the task. After using this pack, you'll get fewer hallucinated APIs, tighter diffs, and review feedback that catches real issues, and you'll spend less time re-explaining your setup. The prompts cover the full loop from 'what does this code do' to 'is this change safe to merge.' Delivered as a single Markdown file. Paste into your chat tool or a snippet manager and adapt the placeholders.
The prompts are written to get the best out of capable chat models generally. They're named for Claude because that's a common dev tool, but they work with other strong models too.
A chat model only sees what you paste. The prompts are designed to make you include the minimum useful context (error, relevant files, stack), which is what produces grounded answers.
No. The prompts use a [LANGUAGE] placeholder and apply across stacks. Examples mention common languages but nothing is locked in.
Each prompt includes an instruction to ask for missing context and to flag uncertainty rather than guess. The guide also explains why pasting real signatures beats describing them.
