Understand the problem

Prompts are code: review, eval gates, and staged rollout instead of vibes-driven edits.

Study the solution

Treat prompts as versioned artifacts: store them in git (or a prompt registry) with IDs, review changes like code, and gate merges on an eval suite — a golden dataset scored by code and LLM-judge graders — so you see accuracy deltas, not anecdotes. Roll out gradually (shadow traffic or a percentage canary), monitor qua
