Few-shot prompt

Write the task and at least one example, and the prompt shows here.

How to use it

  1. Write the task, or tap Try an example.
  2. Name your input and output, like Review and Sentiment.
  3. Fill in two to five examples. Add the new input if you have it.
  4. Pick a layout and copy the prompt.

Tips

  • Three to five varied examples work better than many similar ones.
  • Cover the tricky cases, like a mixed review, not only the easy ones.
  • Keep every output in exactly the same format. The model copies it closely.
  • XML tags work well with Claude. Labels work well everywhere.

Frequently asked questions

What is few-shot prompting?

Giving the AI a few examples of inputs and the outputs you want, so it copies the pattern for a new input. It's useful for sorting, extracting, rewriting and keeping a consistent format.

How many examples should I use?

Usually three to five. One example (one-shot) can work for simple formats. More than ten rarely helps and costs more tokens.

Which layout should I pick?

Labels are simple and work in any AI. XML tags keep long examples clearly apart and suit Claude. Markdown reads well in chat apps.

Is my text sent anywhere?

No. The prompt is put together in your browser.
