Prompt Chaining: A 4-Step Template for Breaking Up a Big Task

Prompt chaining is a technique 2026 guides widely agree 'genuinely works': split a complex task into 4-6 sequential small prompts, with each step's output feeding the next — this is more stable and easier to debug than stuffing everything into one giant prompt, and even non-engineers can apply it immediately. The Traditional Chinese angle here turns it into a workflow template office workers can copy directly — writing a proposal becomes: produce an outline → expand each section → proofread → convert to a slide deck. Why this beats writing it all in one go: with one giant attempt, your only option if it's wrong is to scrap the whole thing and start over; broken into steps, you can correct direction as early as the outline stage, so later steps aren't wasted. It's also easy to change your angle mid-task by just rerunning that one step. The prompt deliberately requires it to 'stop after each step and wait for the next instruction' — that's the whole point of this design; otherwise the model loves to charge straight through to the end on its own, and you lose the chance to step in partway through (this is exactly where it tends to trip up — it's very eager to rush ahead). Honest note: if it doesn't stop and writes everything itself, just tell it 'stop, give me only step 1's outline' and it'll fall in line. The more specific the task and background material you provide, the higher the quality of the outline and the less work later steps require.

我要用「提示鏈」分四步完成一個任務，不要一次叫你全部寫完。請先確認你理解這個流程，然後我們一步一步來，每一步你只做當步的事、做完停下等我說「下一步」。

【任務】[任務]
【背景與素材】[背景素材]
【對象與目的】[對象目的]

流程如下：

步驟 1｜產大綱：根據以上資訊，先只給「結構大綱」——分幾個段落、每段的標題與一句話重點。先別展開內文。給完停下，等我確認或調整。

步驟 2｜逐段展開：等我說「下一步」後，依照確認過的大綱，把每一段展開成完整內文。一次展開全部，但嚴格貼著大綱、不要新增大綱沒有的段落。

步驟 3｜校稿潤飾：等我說「下一步」後，針對上一步的全文做潤飾——刪贅字、修語氣為[語氣]、確認台灣正體中文與台灣用語、抓出邏輯不順或前後矛盾的地方並修掉。把修改重點簡述給我。

步驟 4｜轉換輸出：等我說「下一步」後，把定稿轉成我要的最終形式：[最終形式]（例如簡報逐頁條列、Email、摘要）。

現在請從步驟 1 開始。記住：每步做完就停、等我指令，不要自己一路衝到底。
