02Step-by-Step Guide
1

Define a High-Quality Output Task

Identify a task where a polished end result is critical, such as front-end design, app design, or component prototyping. This is where Opus 5 excels, even if the process is difficult.

2

Submit a Detailed Initial Prompt

Provide a detailed prompt to Claude Opus 5, clearly outlining your design requirements. Treat this as an asynchronous request, focusing on the end result rather than a conversational exchange.

3

Brace for the 'Claude Slop'

Evaluate the first output. Be prepared for it to be overly verbose, full of unnecessary meta-commentary, or not exactly what you asked for, a phenomenon described as 'Claude Slop'.

4

Provide Direct, Forceful Feedback

If the output is unsatisfactory, provide direct and blunt corrective feedback. Don't be afraid to be stern to get the model on the right track.

Pro Tip: The author notes having to say things like, 'This is garbage' to get the model to drop its verbosity and produce a better result.
5

Iterate Until Polished

Continue refining with direct feedback, focusing on stripping away commentary and honing the functional code or design until the model produces a detailed, polished, and high-quality prototype.

6

Extract Final Output

Once a satisfactory result is achieved, use the final, high-quality output for your project. This approach allows you to get the benefits of the model's strong capabilities while minimizing interaction with its frustrating personality.
