Prompt

I need to create a prompt that produces consistent, high-quality outputs for: {{task}}

Build a few-shot prompt by providing:
1) **Task Description** — clear, unambiguous instruction
2) **Output Format** — exact structure the output should follow
3) **Example 1** — typical/common case (input → output)
4) **Example 2** — edge case or unusual input (input → output)
5) **Example 3** — common mistake to AVOID (input → incorrect output → correct output)
6) **Negative Instructions** — what the output should NOT include
7) **Quality Criteria** — how to evaluate if the output is good
8) **The Complete Prompt** — assembled and ready to use

Desired output style: {{formal/casual/technical}}
Expected input variation: {{low/medium/high}}
Critical requirement: {{must_have}}
