Lesson 06.3 · Phase 06 Judging the output
Ask it to critique itself.
01 · The problem
The first pass is loyal to itself. If you do not ask for the holes, you will not hear them.
02 · The prompt
Ask for three weaknesses and one thing it would not send. Forbid a rewrite until you ask.
Holes first
Critique this note. List three weaknesses. Then name the one line you would not send. Do not rewrite yet. “Hi Mara — you failed to send Tuesday’s pallet, which has put our class of 18 at risk. We need it Friday. Please fix this.”
03 · Try itPromptYour prompt
Read the critique. Decide which hole is real. Then, if you want, ask for a revision.
Illustrative answer — written for this lesson, not a live model
1. It assigns blame. 2. “At risk” is heat without a ask. 3. “Please fix this” has no date or action. I would not send the first sentence.
04 · What you made
A critique you asked for, on purpose. Use it before you polish.
