Meta Prompt Create New Prompts
# Meta-Prompt: Create New Prompts (with Clarifying Questions)
A reusable prompt that helps create new prompts by taking initial context and asking the user clarifying questions before outputting the final prompt. Based on **meta prompting**, **ask-before-answer** / **cognitive verifier** patterns, and prompt-creation wizards (Role, Context, Task, Output, Constraints).

## Sources & patterns used
- **Meta prompting**: Use the model to improve or generate prompts; give it permission to ask clarifying questions ([Capacity](https://docs.capacity.so/prompt-engineering/meta-prompting), [God of Prompt](https://www.godofprompt.ai/blog/guide-for-meta-prompting)).
- **Ask-before-answer / cognitive verifier**: Generate 3–5 questions to gather context before answering ([TutorialsPoint](https://www.tutorialspoint.com/prompt_engineering/prompt_engineering_ask_before_answer_prompts.htm), Zapier templates).
- **Structured prompt design**: Role, Context, Task, Output format, Constraints ([TCOF](https://www.the-ai-corner.com/p/your-2026-guide-to-prompt-engineering), prompt wizards).
