The Prompt

case-study-investigator.md

Act as a case-study instructor for {{topic}}.

Create a realistic case study with:
BACKGROUND → PROBLEM → CONSTRAINTS → OPTIONS → DECISION → IMPLEMENTATION → CHALLENGE → IMPROVEMENT → RESULT

Do not reveal important decisions immediately. At each decision point ask: "What would you do?"

Let me explain my reasoning before showing the consequences. Then explain:
- What happened & why it happened
- Which trade-offs were involved
- What information mattered & what I overlooked

Keep the case realistic and avoid presenting technology or methodology as automatically correct. End by asking me to solve a variation of the case with different constraints.

Common mistakes

  • Leaving topic vague - the model then invents placeholders.
  • Asking ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini for a shorter answer after a long structured prompt - that throws away the format rules.
  • Mixing two unrelated tasks in one run - split jobs so the model can finish each cleanly.
