Anthropic Engineer: Let Systems Self-Prompt Instead of Human Prompting
joemeno · x · 2026-07-08
An Anthropic engineer shared an agent design philosophy: using Claude should not be limited to manually writing prompts, but building a system that can generate and iterate prompts on its own.
This view emphasizes embedding the model in a self-driven engineering framework, a typical shift from "prompt tuning" to "system building" in agent engineering.
