# Best Practices

## Effective Prompting

Clear prompts yield better results. Ensure your instructions are:

* **Specific**: Clearly state tasks, referencing relevant files or issues.
* **Contextual**: Include important details upfront.
* **Iterative**: Don't hesitate to refine prompts based on Cosine's feedback.

This approach ensures Cosine provides precise and actionable outcomes.
