Great prompt writing equals great collaboration. LLMs are improving rapidly, so understanding where they’re strongest improves your experience with Korey — and every AI agent. Keep these habits in mind next time you’re chatting.
1. Keep conversations short
LLMs experience context window degradation — long conversations lead to worse output. Open new conversation windows often and keep prompts fairly self-contained and focused, rather than running long, open-ended threads.
2. Don’t ask for too many things at once
Break work into smaller steps and ask for one thing at a time, rather than requesting groups of features or implementations at once. Open with “Start with…” or a similar phrase to signal there are multiple steps coming.
3. Confirm successful output
When an output looks good, say so — “that looks good” or “let’s use that” — before moving on. This prevents unnecessary rework.
4. Avoid negative prompting
Focus on what the behavior should be rather than what it should not be. LLMs do better with positive instructions than negative ones, so describe your desired state.
5. Include examples
Supply examples that show the sort of output you want — links to documents, uploads, text, and so on.
6. Ask “why?”
Asking why the LLM chose its approach often yields better results, on top of what you learn. Models frequently reach realizations during reflection and improve from there.
7. Customize for your preferences
Ask Korey to remember your preferences and teach it to create in your preferred style and format. See Quick start for how to save a memory and customize your writing style.
