A Repeatable Diagnosis
A way to tell, next time it drifts, which of the five is biting — before you rerun the prompt again.
Diagnose in minutesThe diagnosis is free — the fixes run deep
This diagnostic names the causes; the full fixes live in the prompt-construction chapters and the reusable primitives. Use the diagnosis today. When you want the depth behind each fix, the Playbook is a seven-day free trial away, no card to start.
