Developer @gandamuml shares prompting tips for Claude Opus 5: route every task through the /goal command, add pleading language ("please for the love of god"), repeatedly list the model's past mistakes of the same kind, attach extra instructions to the goal agent — and remind Opus 5 that the goal agent is watching. Half joke, half real practice: the "pressure + guilt-trip" school of prompt engineering.
