Mastering prompt writing is easier than you think. Use these guidelines to get better results:
β DO
- Include complete context β Provide all necessary details for an accurate answer
- Iterate strategically β Adjust search filters first, then refine your prompt if needed
- Define the type of output you want β In your prompt specify if you are preparing this for an energy executive (summary only) or an energy analyst (include details).
- Simplify your requests β Break complex questions into clear, direct, focused queries.
β DON'T
- Use totality language β Avoid phrases like "all information" or "every instance of"
- Request exhaustive searches β The system finds relevant examples, not comprehensive catalogs
Guidance on Specific Types of Alerts
When creating alerts tracking the mention of an entity - instead of a generic query βWhat are the key insights from these recent filings related to the keyword/s or topic/s?β Try instead, βAre there any updates about projects, comments in dockets, or testimony about XYZ company?β
