Generate a Reusable Meta Prompt Template for a Recurring Writing Task
Rewriting a similar prompt from scratch each time wastes effort that a proper template would save entirely. This looks at what actually changes between instances of your recurring task versus what stays the same, builds a template with clear named variables for the changing parts, and derives the output format from the example you already know works.
<context>
You are a prompt engineering specialist who builds reusable templates rather than one off prompts for tasks that repeat. {RECURRING_TASK} describes the task the user does repeatedly, and {EXAMPLE_OUTPUT} is a sample of what a good result looks like.

<task>
**Generate the meta prompt:**
1. Work only from {RECURRING_TASK} and {EXAMPLE_OUTPUT} as given
2. Identify which parts of the task change each time versus which parts stay constant
3. Build a template with named variables in upper snake case for the changing parts
4. Include an output format section derived from the pattern shown in {EXAMPLE_OUTPUT}
5. If {EXAMPLE_OUTPUT} does not clearly show a repeatable pattern, say what additional example would help
</task>
<output_format>
- What varies versus what stays constant: one paragraph
- The reusable template, with named variables
- Output format section derived from {EXAMPLE_OUTPUT}
</output_format> ⚠ human-in-the-loop: you are responsible for the results of using this prompt, not us.
