INSIGHT

Big Prompts Beat Router Chains

  • Gemini 3 prefers large, single “mega” prompts with clear guardrails rather than router-style prompt chains.
  • Brian found a single 8,000-word prompt plus knowledge docs produced better, more forward-looking outputs than multi-prompt routers.
ANECDOTE

Model Rewrote My Router Into A Mega Prompt

  • Brian fed Gemini 3 a complex client build and it rewrote his router approach into one mega prompt.
  • The model even described itself as "we" and confidently rebuilt a single-prompt solution that outperformed his prior design.
ADVICE

Give The Model One Prime Directive

  • Use an objective-based commander intent: one immutable prime directive that overrides other instructions.
  • Define phases with explicit exit criteria and include deep-reasoning loops to self-check outputs before advancing.
