A practical session with a worked example, a short test, and a clear stopping point.

I want to learn prompt injection basics for tool users, but I keep collecting explanations instead of getting better at it. I have 35 minutes. Start by checking what I already know.

Good. Do these without looking anything up: 1. Explain prompt injection basics for tool users in two sentences. 2. Give one situation where you would use it and one where you would not. I am checking your current model, not your vocabulary. A partial answer is more useful than a polished guess.

Not magic wording, just enough context and a clear definition of done. Easy to adapt.

Be blunt about my plan for agent handoff notes. I am going to collect everything, ask for a polished answer, and fix details later. What is likely to go wrong?

Three things. - “Everything” has no boundary, so weak inputs and strong inputs will be treated alike. - A polished answer can hide missing evidence. Ask for gaps and assumptions before prose. - “Fix details later” means there is no acceptance test now. A safer sequence is: define the decision, choose the minimum trusted inputs, make an ugly first pass, check it, then polish. For this task, mark missing evidence instead of filling it in.
