@thinkwithv: Anthropic deleted 80% of Claude Code's instructions. On purpose. So I tested it on my own AI product. I graded 3 versions of my AI's instructions like my users would. The leanest won. The catch: leaner still has to be clear, and you still test the outputs. But a few sharp lines beat my old paragraphs. Makes me wonder how much of "being thorough" is just not trusting it to think. Where do you over-instruct your AI? #AI #PromptEngineering #Marginalia

Love that you ran these tests. I've already tailored quite a few of mine because I can see how I overindexed on 'control' which makes it harder to use it as a creative thought partner.

If you want to try out the agent for yourself, join the waitlist for Marginalia, the active reading app that I'm building. Link is in my bio!
