anthropic has similar instructions for claude but seems like most don’t follow it
System prompt tips: Use the system parameter to set Claude’s role. Put everything else, like task-specific instructions, in the user turn instead.

someone asked how i feel about early returns. well, i keep this in my copilot-instructions. big fan
Error Handling and Validation - Handle errors and edge cases at the beginning of functions. - Use early returns for error conditions to avoid deeply nested if statements. - Use guard clauses to handle preconditions and invalid states early. - Avoid unnecessary else statements; use if-return pattern instead. - Implement proper error logging and user-friendly error messages. - Consider using custom error types or error factories for consistent error handling.
