Prompt objective
Create a contextual help system that anticipates user questions based on their current location in the product, recent actions, and past behavior, delivering the right help at the right moment.
Real use case
A project management tool has 200 help articles but users can't find what they need. When a user is on the billing page, they should see billing-related help — not articles about project templates.
Customize these fields first
Replace the placeholders with your own context before you run the prompt. That usually improves the first output more than adding more instructions later.
