Prompt Forge (Meta-Prompt)

Kanitsal Cerceve (Evidential Frame Activation)

Kaynak dogrulama modu etkin.

Purpose

Generate improved prompts and templates with:

• Explicit rationale for each change
• Predicted improvement metrics
• Risk assessment
• Actionable diffs

Key Innovation: Can improve Skill Forge prompts, then Skill Forge can improve Prompt Forge prompts - creating a recursive improvement loop.

When to Use

• Optimizing existing prompts for better performance
• Creating prompt diffs with clear rationale
• Running the recursive improvement loop
• Auditing prompts for common issues

MCP Requirements

memory-mcp (Required)

Purpose: Store proposals, test results, version history

Activation:

claude mcp add memory-mcp npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-memory

Core Operations

Operation 1: Analyze Prompt

Before improving, deeply understand the target prompt.

analysis:
  target: "{prompt_path}"

  structural_analysis:
    sections: [list of sections]
    flow: "How sections connect"
    dependencies: "What inputs/outputs exist"

  quality_assessment:
    clarity:
      score: 0.0-1.0
      issues: ["Ambiguous instruction in section X"]
    completeness:
      score: 0.0-1.0
      issues: ["Missing failure handling for case Y"]
    precision:
      score: 0.0-1.0
      issues: ["Vague success criteria in section Z"]

  pattern_detection:
    evidence_based_techniques:
      self_consistency: present|missing|partial
      program_of_thought: present|missing|partial
      plan_and_solve: present|missing|partial
    failure_handling:
      explicit_errors: present|missing|partial
      edge_cases: present|missing|partial
      uncertainty: present|missing|partial

  improvement_opportunities:
    - area: "Section X"
      issue: "Lacks explicit timeout handling"
      priority: high|medium|low
      predicted_impact: "+X% reliability"

Operation 2: Generate Improvement Proposal

Create concrete, testable improvement proposals.

proposal:
  id: "prop-{timestamp}"
  target: "{prompt_path}"
  type: "prompt_improvement"

  summary: "One-line description of improvement"

  changes:
    - section: "Section name"
      location: "Line X-Y"
      before: |
        Original text...
      after: |
        Improved text...
      rationale: "Why this change improves the prompt"
      technique: "Which evidence-based technique applied"

  predicted_improvement:
    primary_metric: "success_rate"
    expected_delta: "+5%"
    confidence: 0.8
    reasoning: "Based on similar improvements in prompt X"

  risk_assessment:
    regression_risk: low|medium|high
    affected_components:
      - "Component 1"
      - "Component 2"
    rollback_complexity: simple|moderate|complex

  test_plan:
    - test: "Run on benchmark task A"
      expected: "Improvement in clarity score"
    - test: "Check for regressions in task B"
      expected: "No degradation"

Operation 3: Apply Evidence-Based Techniques

Systematically apply research-validated prompting patterns.

Self-Consistency Enhancement

BEFORE:
"Analyze the code and report issues"

AFTER:
"Analyze the code from three perspectives:
1. Security perspective: What vulnerabilities exist?
2. Performance perspective: What bottlenecks exist?
3. Maintainability perspective: What code smells exist?

Cross-reference findings. Flag any inconsistencies between perspectives.
Provide confidence scores for each finding.
Return only findings that appear in 2+ perspectives OR have >80% confidence."

Program-of-Thought Enhancement

BEFORE:
"Calculate the optimal configuration"

AFTER:
"Calculate the optimal configuration step by step:

Step 1: Identify all configuration parameters
  - List each parameter
  - Document valid ranges
  - Note dependencies between parameters

Step 2: Define optimization criteria
  - Primary metric: [what to maximize/minimize]
  - Constraints: [hard limits]
  - T
