Break one big prompt into smaller steps
Works with ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
Split an overloaded prompt into a short chain that works better.
The problem
Cramming everything into one prompt produces shallow, muddled answers.
What this skill does
AI breaks the task into a sequence of focused prompts.
When to use it
- Use when one mega-prompt keeps underperforming.
Juni’s tip
Juni says: one job per prompt — chain them for big tasks.
The prompt
Try it live
Fill in the blanks — your ready-to-use prompt builds as you type.
Weak vs. better
this prompt isn't working
Split this overloaded prompt — [prompt] — into a 3-4 step chain. For each step give its prompt and what to carry into the next. Order so each step's output feeds the following one.
Why this works
Sequencing focused steps lets the AI do each well instead of everything poorly at once.
Practice task
Take a do-everything prompt and break it into a working chain.
Self-check
- The task is split into focused steps
- Each step's output feeds the next
- Each prompt does one clear job
Common mistakes to avoid
- Keeping ten asks in one prompt
- Steps that don't connect
- Splitting but each step still overloaded
