GOAL:
{{one clear objective}}

Why Grok prompts fail and how to fix them

Problem: Output is generic

Fix: add one real input block (notes, data, transcript, code, or examples)
Fix: add a quality bar with must-include details

Problem: Wrong format

Fix: define the output structure as headings, bullets, table columns, or JSON keys
Fix: ask Grok to return only that format

Problem: Too long

Fix: set hard limits (max 120 words, exactly 5 bullets, table with 8 rows)

Problem: Hallucinated details

Fix: add If data is missing, say "missing data" and ask one follow-up question

Quick checklist before you run any Grok prompt

Is the goal one sentence and unambiguous?
Did you include the minimum context Grok needs?
Is the output format explicit?
Did you define what to avoid?
Did you add a quality bar that can be checked?

If not, fix those first. You will usually get better results in one pass.
