Steer model outputs with directional-stimulus hints instead of rewriting the whole prompt

Cybernews·low signal

Directional-stimulus prompting injects short steering cues — 'focus on comparables', 'be skeptical', 'weight recent data' — to bias outputs toward a desired pattern without restructuring the prompt. It's a lightweight way to align outputs with an organizational style or a risk-averse posture, and it composes cleanly on top of role and format constraints. Use it as a tuning dial when the base prompt is good but the emphasis is off.
