What’s a good prompt to produce reliable scripting examples?
Specify language, version, dependencies, and the exact task. Ask for a minimal, runnable script with comments and a quick test. Require a note on security or pitfalls. Keep snippets short and self-contained.
In practice
Request a copy-pasteable block plus a command to run it—reduces friction.
