Output format:

22/ 100 — weak

What was missing

• A clear, single task
One explicit instruction beats a vague wish. Say exactly what you want produced.
• Context or source material
The model cannot see your situation. Give it the background, the draft, the data — whatever it should work from.
• Who it's for
Naming the reader fixes the vocabulary, the depth and the tone in one go.
• The output format
Ask for the shape you want — a table, five bullets, JSON — and you stop reformatting the answer by hand.
• A length or depth
Without a length, models default to a medium-long essay whatever you asked for.
• A tone of voice
Say how it should sound, or you get the house style: polite, hedged and a bit bland.
• Constraints
Telling it what not to do (no invented statistics, no jargon, no preamble) removes most of the rework.
• An example
One example of what "right" looks like is worth a paragraph of description.
