Most people type one line, like “caption for bakery”, and get a generic answer. In Claude Class Lesson 4 we showed the one change that fixes this: give Claude four parts instead of one line. Here are the four parts and the ten ready-made prompts we promised in the reel.
The 4 parts
| Part | What it answers | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Role | Who should Claude think as? (ആരായിട്ട് ചിന്തിക്കണം) | Social media manager of a home bakery in Trivandrum |
| Task | What should it do? (എന്ത് ചെയ്യണം) | Write 3 Instagram captions for our plum cake |
| Context | What does it not know? (ക്ലോഡിന് അറിയാത്ത കാര്യങ്ങൾ) | For working mothers, ₹450 for half a kilo, delivery within 5 km |
| Format | How should the answer look? (ഉത്തരം എങ്ങനെ വേണം) | Under 40 words, one emoji, end with “Order on WhatsApp” |
Anthropic's own prompting guide recommends the same ingredients: a role “focuses Claude's behavior and tone”, explaining the reason behind an instruction gives more targeted answers, and you should be specific about the output format. Role, task, context, format is just an easy way to remember them.

One warning: check before you post
Claude can get prices, names and facts wrong, and it can add things you never said. In the reel, one caption promised “Free delivery” even though the prompt never mentioned it. Give the real facts in the context, tell Claude not to add others, and read every line before it goes out.
Make it even better
- Add an example.Paste a post or message you liked and say “match this tone”.
- Reply to refine.“Shorter”, “more local”, “in Malayalam”. No need to start a new chat.
- Rewrite your last prompt. Put the last thing you typed into these four parts, send both versions, and compare the answers.
