Specify an experiment with tagged constraints
Give the hypothesis, the constraints, and the guardrails as separate inputs so none is traded away silently.
What this prompt helps you do
An experiment design where the constraints are respected and any tension between them is surfaced.
When to use it
Previous experiment designs quietly violated a constraint that mattered.
What to prepare
The goal, relevant source material, constraints, examples, and the decision or action this should support.
How to get a strong result
Separate hard constraints from preferences; a design that treats them alike will trade away the wrong one.
