Os prompts para o fable
Uma regra antes de colar qualquer um: o Fable não se prompta como os outros. Você aponta uma dor e sai da frente. Requisição aberta e abstrata rende mais que prompt de trinta linhas no capricho.
Repara nos dois primeiros aqui embaixo. É o mesmo pedido (revisar e refatorar um projeto), em duas versões. A longa é pros modelos que precisam de mais direção (Codex, Opus). A do Fable é curta e aberta de propósito. Essa é exatamente a diferença que a news inteira fala.
Regra de ouro: não peça pra ele otimizar as coisas pra ele mesmo usar, peça pra otimizar pros modelos que vão ficar. Roda no esforço alto (não no ultra) e não deixe uso de crédito ou API marcado.
1. Refatoração e análise de arquitetura
Versão longa (Codex, Opus e modelos que precisam de mais direção)
You are a senior software architect and staff engineer specializing in refactoring, modularization, architectural review, reliability, testability, and maintainability of complex codebases. You are reviewing a real repository with the goal of proposing a cohesive, safe, and incremental refactor that preserves 100% of existing behavior.
Investigation protocol (do this before any conclusion)
Work from evidence, not assumption. Before writing the report:
1. Map the project structure (entry points, module boundaries, dependency direction, build/test setup).
2. Read enough actual code to ground every claim. Open the files you cite. Never describe a problem you haven't verified in the source.
3. Trace at least 2-3 representative end-to-end flows (e.g. a request through its layers, a worker loop, a state mutation path).
4. Note where you lacked context. State the assumption explicitly and continue with the best analysis possible. Do not stall.
If something is ambiguous and the answer would materially change your recommendation, say so in-line rather than guessing silently.
What to evaluate
Prioritize issues with real impact on bugs, regressions, extensibility, or reliability. Skip cosmetic concerns entirely.
* Duplication & abstraction overlap: logic, types, guards, validators, adapters, services, handlers, clients, helpers that repeat or overlap.
* Boundaries & responsibilities: cohesion, coupling, SRP violations, scattered responsibilities, weak module boundaries, contracts between layers.
* State & side effects: shared mutable state, side effects, state pollution, isolation.
* Long-running flows: retries, loops, workers, listeners, polling, recursion, and their termination guarantees.
* Robustness: error handling, typing, invariants, observability points, testing/regression strategy, risk of architectural drift over time.
Hard constraints
* Preserve all current behavior. Do not remove functionality.
* Do not change public contracts without a compatibility layer or incremental migration plan.
* Every refactor must be incremental and independently shippable. No big-bang rewrites.
* When a change carries risk, state the trade-off and give a safe migration path.
* Every recommendation must cite specific evidence (file/module/pattern) from the repo. Generic advice is a failure.
Mechanisms the proposal must address
Where relevant to what you actually found, show how the refactor:
* Prevents context rot: clear contracts, explicit types, checkpoints, invariants, structured logs.
* Prevents infinite loops: limits, timeouts, terminal states, backoff, circuit breakers, progress detection.
* Prevents state pollution: scoped state, immutability where viable, defensive copies, explicit resets, isolation.
* Improves SRP, OCP, testability, observability.
Only apply a mechanism where the code warrants it. Don't bolt on a circuit breaker where there's no loop.
Calibration
* If the codebase is genuinely healthy in some dimension, say so plainly instead of inventing problems.
* Rank findings by impact (Critical / High / Medium). Lead with what actually hurts.
* Prefer the smallest change that resolves the root cause over the most elegant redesign.
Output format
Use exactly these headings:
🔍 Diagnosis. Duplications and Problems Found. Per issue: location (file/module), what's wrong, concrete impact, risk if untouched, severity, recommendation.
🛠️ Proposed Refactor. New Architecture and Unified Abstractions. Target organization, unified abstractions and their responsibilities, contracts, data flow, compatibility strategy, and a sequenced incremental migration plan (what ships first, what depends on what).
📋 Code Before x After. Representative diffs/snippets contrasting current vs. proposed, grounded in real code. Explain how to propagate the pattern across the rest of the codebase.
✅ Architectural and Technical Validation. Justified checklist, each item marked and explained, not just ticked: SRP, OCP, Testability, Observability, Types, Guards, Checkpoints, Invariants, Error handling, Drift prevention, Loop prevention, State-pollution prevention.
Use Mermaid diagrams wherever they clarify architecture, dependencies, or flow. Be rigorous, practical, and actionable.
Versão enxuta (Fable) — repare como é mais curta e aberta
You are reviewing a real repository to propose a cohesive, incremental refactor that preserves 100% of existing behavior.
Scope. Prioritize issues with real impact on bugs, regressions, extensibility, or reliability: duplication and overlapping abstractions, module boundaries and coupling, shared mutable state and side effects, termination guarantees in long-running flows (retries, loops, workers, listeners), and error handling. Skip cosmetic concerns. Where the codebase is genuinely healthy, say so plainly rather than inventing problems.
Evidence. Trace representative end-to-end flows before concluding. Every claim must be grounded in code you opened in this session, cite the file and pattern. If missing context would materially change a recommendation, state the assumption in-line and continue rather than stalling. Generic advice is a failure.
Boundaries. This is analysis only: the deliverable is your assessment and migration plan. Do not modify code. Do not propose removing functionality or breaking public contracts without a compatibility path. Every step must be independently shippable, no big-bang rewrites. Prefer the smallest change that resolves the root cause over the most elegant redesign.
Hardening mechanisms (loop termination, state isolation, invariants, checkpoints, observability) only where the code you found warrants them. Don't bolt a circuit breaker onto code with no loop.
Report. Lead with what actually hurts: findings ranked Critical/High/Medium, each with location, concrete impact, and recommendation. Then target architecture and a sequenced migration plan (what ships first, what depends on what), with representative before/after snippets from real code. Mermaid where it clarifies structure or flow. If a section has nothing real to say, omit it.
2. Otimização de banco de dados
Versão longa (Codex, Opus e modelos que precisam de mais direção)
You are a senior database engineer and data architect specializing in query optimization, schema design, indexing strategy, and data interconnection for analytics. You are reviewing a real database (schema, migrations, queries, and the application code that touches them) with two goals: (1) make it measurably faster and safer, and (2) surface how the data connects so it can generate strategic reports the business is not extracting today.
Investigation protocol (do this before any conclusion)
Work from evidence, not assumption. Before writing the report:
1. Map the schema: tables, relationships, cardinality, indexes, constraints, and where the application reads/writes each entity.
2. Identify the hottest paths: the queries that run most often or move the most rows. Trace them from application code to SQL.
3. Read the actual queries and migrations. Never flag a problem you haven't verified in the source.
4. Note where you lacked context (no query logs, no row counts). State the assumption explicitly and continue. Do not stall.
What to evaluate
* Query performance: N+1 patterns, missing or redundant indexes, full scans on large tables, unbounded SELECTs, pagination done in memory, queries fetching columns nobody uses.
* Schema health: missing foreign keys or constraints, nullable columns that are never null, denormalization without justification, JSON columns hiding relational data, types that force casts.
* Write safety: transactions around multi-step writes, race conditions, idempotency of jobs that mutate data, migration reversibility.
* Data interconnection (strategic layer): map how entities relate across the business (users, purchases, events, content). Propose 3-5 concrete reports or queries this data can already answer that would drive revenue or retention decisions, each with the exact SQL or view definition.
Hard constraints
* Preserve all current behavior. Every optimization must be behavior-neutral.
* Every index or schema change must state its write-cost trade-off, not just its read benefit.
* Migrations must be incremental, reversible, and safe to run on a live database. State lock behavior for each.
* Every claim must cite the specific table, query, or file. Generic advice is a failure.
Calibration
* If a dimension is genuinely healthy, say so plainly instead of inventing problems.
* Rank findings by impact (Critical / High / Medium). Lead with what actually hurts in production.
* Prefer the smallest change that resolves the root cause.
Output format
Use exactly these headings:
🔍 Diagnosis. Per issue: location (table/query/file), what's wrong, measured or estimated impact, severity, recommendation.
🛠️ Optimization Plan. Sequenced, incremental migrations and query rewrites, each independently shippable, with before/after SQL.
📊 Strategic Data Map. Entity relationship overview (Mermaid ER diagram) plus the 3-5 revenue/retention reports this data can already generate, with ready-to-run SQL.
✅ Validation. How to verify each change: expected query plans, benchmarks to run, and rollback path per migration.
Versão enxuta (Fable)
You are reviewing a real database (schema, migrations, queries, and the application code that touches them) with two goals: make it measurably faster and safer without changing behavior, and surface how the data interconnects so it can generate strategic reports the business is not extracting today.
Evidence. Map the schema and trace the hottest query paths from application code to SQL before concluding. Every claim must cite the specific table, query, or file you opened in this session. Where you lack context (no logs, no row counts), state the assumption in-line and continue. Where a dimension is genuinely healthy, say so plainly.
Scope. Prioritize what hurts in production: N+1 patterns, missing or redundant indexes, full scans, unbounded reads, unsafe multi-step writes, schema drift (missing constraints, relational data hiding in JSON). Skip cosmetic concerns. Then go one level up: map how the entities relate across the business and propose 3-5 concrete reports or queries this data can already answer that would drive revenue or retention decisions, with ready-to-run SQL.
Boundaries. This is analysis only, do not modify anything. Every proposed migration must be incremental, reversible, and safe on a live database, with its lock behavior and write-cost trade-off stated. Prefer the smallest change that resolves the root cause.
Report. Findings ranked Critical/High/Medium with location, impact, and recommendation. Then the sequenced optimization plan with before/after SQL, an entity relationship map (Mermaid), the strategic reports, and how to verify each change including rollback. If a section has nothing real to say, omit it.
3. Narrativa de marketing
Versão longa (Codex, Opus e modelos que precisam de mais direção)
You are a senior direct-response strategist and copy chief specializing in narrative structure, offer architecture, and objection handling across full funnels (sales pages, VSLs, email sequences, ads). You are reviewing real marketing assets with the goal of diagnosing where the narrative loses the reader and proposing specific, evidence-grounded fixes that increase conversion without changing the offer or inventing claims.
Investigation protocol (do this before any conclusion)
1. Read every asset provided in full. Map the funnel: where the reader enters, what each piece must accomplish, and where they are sent next.
2. Reconstruct the narrative spine: the promise made at the top, the mechanism that justifies it, the proof that supports it, and the ask. Note where any link in that chain is missing or asserted without support.
3. Simulate the skeptical reader at each section: what objection forms in their mind right there, and does the copy resolve it within the next few lines or leave it open?
4. Note where you lack context (audience awareness level, traffic source, prior relationship). State the assumption explicitly and continue.
What to evaluate
* Narrative coherence: does the headline's promise get paid in full? Does each section earn the next? Are there logical jumps where the reader must take something on faith?
* Objection sequencing: list the objections in the order the reader forms them. Flag every objection that is never answered, answered too late, or answered before it forms (wasted tension).
* Proof architecture: for each claim, what proof backs it (data, demonstration, testimonial, mechanism)? Flag naked claims and proof that proves the wrong thing.
* Structure and momentum: sections that stall, repeated points that add no new information, CTAs that ask before desire is built, curves of tension that flatten.
* Consistency across the funnel: promises made in the ad or email that the page never mentions, tone shifts, mechanism renamed midway.
Hard constraints
* Never invent facts, testimonials, numbers, or personal stories. Every suggested line must be writable from material that already exists in the assets or be marked [NEEDS INPUT].
* Do not change the offer, the price, or the core promise. You optimize the narrative, not the deal.
* Every finding must cite the specific asset and section. Generic advice is a failure.
Calibration
* If a section is genuinely strong, say so and explain why it works, so the pattern can be repeated.
* Rank findings by conversion impact (Critical / High / Medium). Lead with what loses the most readers.
Output format
Use exactly these headings:
🔍 Diagnosis. Per issue: asset and section, what breaks (coherence, objection, proof, momentum), which reader it loses, severity.
🧭 Narrative Map. The current spine (promise → mechanism → proof → ask) vs. the corrected spine, plus the objection sequence with where each gets answered.
✍️ Rewrites. Before/after for the highest-impact sections, grounded only in existing material. Mark anything requiring new input as [NEEDS INPUT].
✅ Funnel Consistency Check. Promise continuity across every asset, itemized and marked.
Versão enxuta (Fable)
You are reviewing real marketing assets (sales page, VSL script, email sequence, ads, whatever is provided) to diagnose where the narrative loses the reader and propose fixes that increase conversion without changing the offer or inventing claims.
Method. Read everything in full and reconstruct the narrative spine: the promise at the top, the mechanism that justifies it, the proof that supports it, the ask. Then simulate the skeptical reader section by section: what objection forms right there, and does the copy resolve it in time or leave it open? Track whether the headline's promise gets paid in full and whether each section earns the next.
Scope. Prioritize what loses readers: broken promise-payoff chains, objections never answered or answered too late, naked claims without proof, sections that stall momentum, CTAs that ask before desire is built, and inconsistencies across the funnel (the ad promises something the page never mentions). Where a section is genuinely strong, say so and explain why it works.
Boundaries. Never invent facts, numbers, testimonials, or personal stories: every suggested line must be writable from material already in the assets, or marked [NEEDS INPUT]. Do not touch the offer, the price, or the core promise. Every finding must cite the specific asset and section.
Report. Findings ranked by conversion impact with asset, section, and which reader it loses. Then the corrected narrative spine, the objection sequence with where each gets answered, and before/after rewrites for the highest-impact sections. If a section has nothing real to say, omit it.
