🚨SHOCKING: An Indian developer just hit #1 on GitHub with a prompting framework that outperforms every major benchmark.
No VC money. No research lab. Just a laptop and 14 months of testing.
Here are the 11 prompt patterns from his repo that I’ve been using for 3 weeks: https://t.co/nXEpNf1tgn
SHOCKING: An Indian developer just hit #1 on GitHub with a prompting framework that outperforms every major benchmark.
No VC money. No research lab. Just a laptop and 14 months of testing.
Here are the 11 prompt patterns from his repo that I’ve been using for 3 weeks:
Pattern 1: The Anchor Pattern.
Start every complex prompt with a single sentence that defines the exact output format.
“Respond only with a numbered list. No preamble. No explanation after the list.”
The AI locks onto this anchor before processing anything else you write.
Pattern 2: The Constraint Stack.
Don’t add constraints as afterthoughts at the end of your prompt.
Stack them immediately after your core ask.
Ask → Constraints → Context
Reversed order cuts hallucinations by 28% in his testing across 4,000 prompts.
Pattern 3: The Persona Boundary.
Most people assign a role and stop there.
“You are a senior data scientist.”
His version adds a hard boundary:
“You are a senior data scientist. You do not speculate. If data is missing, you say so explicitly.”
The boundary is what activates the persona.
Pattern 4: The Failure Injection.
Before asking for analysis, give the AI an example of the wrong answer.
“Here is the kind of response I do not want: [example].”
This single addition reduced generic outputs by over 50% in his benchmark tests.
Negative examples outperform positive examples. Every time.
Pattern 5: The Confidence Gate.
Add this line to any factual or research task:
“Do not include any claim you cannot support with specific reasoning.”
The AI stops padding answers with plausible-sounding filler.
Output length drops. Output accuracy climbs.
Pattern 6: The Step Separator.
For multi-step tasks, don’t list steps as bullets.
Write them as hard stops:
“Complete step 1. Stop. Wait for my confirmation. Then proceed to step 2.”
Agents that run all steps without stopping drift 60% more than agents that checkpoint.
Pattern 7: The Compression Command.
After any long AI output, run this prompt:
“Compress the above into the 5 sentences that contain the most decision-relevant information.”
You get the signal without the noise.
He used this to process 300 research papers in a single weekend.
Pattern 8: The Assumption Audit.
Before any strategic or analytical task, add:
“List every assumption you are making before you begin.”
The AI surfaces hidden reasoning that would otherwise be buried inside a confident-sounding answer.
This one changes how you read every AI output after you use it.
Pattern 9: The Reframe Test.
After getting any AI recommendation, run this:
“Now argue the opposite position with equal conviction.”
If the AI can argue both sides with equal strength, you don’t have a real answer yet.
It’s the fastest way to find weak analysis.
Pattern 10: The Specificity Ladder.
When outputs feel generic, don’t rewrite your prompt.
Just add:
“Make every claim 3x more specific than your first instinct.”
Generic: “improve your marketing.” Specific: “run a 3-email sequence targeting users who clicked but did not convert in the last 14 days.”
Same prompt. Completely different output.
