Prompt Engineering Guide for Agents

Prompt patterns that reliably work: chain-of-thought, few-shot, structured output, and role prompting.

What It Does

Comprehensive prompt engineering guide for agent builders: zero-shot vs few-shot vs chain-of-thought patterns, structured output prompting (JSON mode, XML tags, Pydantic schema), role and persona prompting for consistent behavior, self-consistency and majority voting for higher accuracy, prompt chaining for complex multi-step tasks, and evaluation methodology for measuring prompt performance. Includes a library of 20 reusable system prompt templates across common domains.

What You Get

• Prompting technique reference: zero-shot, few-shot, CoT, structured output
• 20 reusable system prompt templates for common agent domains
• Evaluation methodology + self-consistency patterns for reliability
