Anthropic Introduces New Prompt Improver to Developer Console: Automatically Refine Prompts With Prompt Engineering Techniques and CoT Reasoning

Say goodbye to frustrating AI outputs—Anthropic AI’s new console features put control back in developers’ hands. Anthropic has made building dependable AI applications with Claude simpler by improving prompts and managing examples directly in the console. The Anthropic Console allows users to build with Anthropic API, meaning it is especially useful for developers. You can think of Anthropic Console as an assistant from the company.

Developers can use the Anthropic Console to:

• Interact with the Anthropic API.
• Manage API usage and costs.
• Build and improve prompts for Claude or other AI systems.
• Test prompts under different scenarios.
• Simplify the prompt generation and evaluation process.
• Generate a test suite.

As we all know, prompt quality plays a huge role in the success of AI responses. Yet, mastering prompt engineering can be time-consuming and varies across different AI models. Anthropic AI’s prompt improver helps everyone, especially developers, refine their existing prompts automatically. The prompt improver uses advanced techniques, adapting prompts originally written for other AI models or improving hand-written prompts.

Here’s how the prompt improver strengthens prompts:

• Chain-of-thought reasoning: It adds a section for Claude to think through problems systematically. This way, users can expect higher accuracy and reliability.
• Example standardization: The prompt improver feature can convert examples into a consistent Extensible Markup Language (XML) format for clarity. XML helps users to store, transmit, and reconstruct data to be shared amongst computer systems.
• Example enrichment: It improves examples with reasoning that aligns with the new prompt structure.
• Rewriting: The feature can clarify any structure and correct minor grammatical or spelling issues.
• Prefill addition: The assistant message is prefilled to guide Claude’s actions and execute the output formats.

After generating a new prompt, you can tell Claude what’s working and what’s not to refine it further. Anthropic AI testing has shown significant improvements.

“According to Anthropic, the prompt improver increased accuracy by 30% for a multi-label classification test. It also achieved 100% compliance to the word count for a summarization task.“

Adding examples to prompts is one of the best ways to improve AI responses. It could help Claude follow specific formats precisely.

Now, you can directly manage examples in a structured format in the Workbench. This makes adding new examples or editing existing ones easier to refine response quality.

Claude can automatically create synthetic inputs and draft outputs if your prompt lacks examples to make the process easier.

Adding examples leads to increased:

• Accuracy: Reduces misinterpretation of instructions.
• Consistency: Ensures desired output formatting.
• Performance: Boosts Claude’s ability to handle complex tasks.

The prompt evaluator lets you test your prompts under different scenarios. An optional “ideal output” column is added in the Evaluations tab to benchmark and improve performance. This helps users consistently grade model outputs on a 5-point scale.

After testing, you can give Claude more feedback on the prompt improvement and repeat the process until satisfied. Claude AI can also modify the prompt and examples based on requests.

For example, you can ask for JSON-formatted outputs instead of XML.

Conclusion:

Anthropic AI’s latest features put more power in developers’ hands. The prompt improver can simplify prompt refinement and example management. Developers can build reliable AI applications due to the accessibility of better and more refined prompts. Anthropic Console features and tools can save time and boost and improve AI models’ and developers’ performance, output, and accuracy.
