Communicate decisions, not wishes: the prompt pattern that makes AI code better
_jaydeepkarale · x · 2026-09-06
The author argues that getting good results from AI coding tools means communicating engineering decisions, not vague wishes. Instead of "build me a scalable API," specify: use FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes and Redis; keep the API stateless; target p95 latency under 200ms; make it horizontally scalable. The more explicit your decisions, the better the AI executes.
