Rescue a prompt that ignored your instructions
Works with ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
Fix a prompt when the AI skipped part of what you asked.
The problem
AI sometimes ignores constraints buried in a long prompt.
What this skill does
AI restructures the prompt so key instructions can't be missed.
When to use it
- Use when the answer dropped a requirement you stated.
Juni’s tip
Juni says: bury a rule in a paragraph and it gets skipped — list it up top.
The prompt
Try it live
Fill in the blanks — your ready-to-use prompt builds as you type.
Weak vs. better
it didn't do what I asked
This prompt — [prompt] — got an answer that ignored [which instruction]. Restructure it: put hard requirements as a short numbered list at the top, separate context from task, and end with 'confirm you followed all numbered rules'.
Why this works
Front-loading rules as a numbered list makes constraints far harder for the model to drop.
Practice task
Take a prompt whose constraint was ignored and restructure it.
Self-check
- Hard requirements are a numbered list up top
- Context and task are clearly separated
- It asks the AI to confirm it followed the rules
Common mistakes to avoid
- Repeating the same buried instruction
- Mixing rules into long context
- Not asking the AI to verify compliance
