## Prompt Tips

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Be Specific" icon="bullseye">
    Instead of "buy some tokens", say "buy \$100 worth of RDOG"
  </Card>

  <Card title="Use Context" icon="layer-group">
    Reference previous actions: "Now post about the token I just created"
  </Card>

  <Card title="Set Conditions" icon="list-check">
    Use "if/then": "If price is below $0.01, buy $50 worth"
  </Card>

  <Card title="Request Confirmation" icon="shield-check">
    Add "show me the quote first" before trading
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

### Good Prompt Structure

```text theme={null}
[Action] + [Specifics] + [Context] + [Conditions]

Examples:
✅ "Buy $100 worth of RDOG on Base mainnet if price is below $0.005"
✅ "Create a post about MOON token with this image [URL], tag the token, and share to DeFi community"
✅ "Show me trending tokens with >500 holders, then get me price quotes for the top 3"

❌ "buy tokens"  (too vague)
❌ "post something"  (no content or context)
❌ "do trading stuff"  (unclear action)
```
