Prompting Claude Opus 5.5

Claude.ai has released a new version of its large language model, Opus 5.5, which includes improved prompting techniques. The new version uses a combination of two different prompting methods: template-based and hybrid prompting. Template-based prompting involves pre-defining a template for the model to follow, while hybrid prompting combines template-based and free-form prompting. Claude.ai's developers believe that this new approach will improve the model's performance and flexibility. The update also includes improvements to the model's ability to handle out-of-vocabulary words and to generate more coherent and diverse responses.
