Summary

Try writing the request as though assigning work to a new colleague: objective, sources, limits, and completion criteria. ACC guides practice on specific tasks so that prompts become part of a process rather than a one-time trick.

A common situation

Illustrative scenario: The draft comes back long but unsuitable for its intended recipient. The user is frustrated that the tool did not understand, although the request specified neither sources nor format. Clear delegation makes checking easier for both people and machines.

Three steps you can try

  1. State the objective and intended recipient.
  2. Specify the sources that may be used.
  3. Set limits and completion criteria.

What to remember

Try writing the request as though assigning work to a new colleague: objective, sources, limits, and completion criteria. ACC guides practice on specific tasks so that prompts become part of a process rather than a one-time trick.
