The core issue is that these instructions become part of the model's reasoning process rather than a post-processing filter, which degrades the actual work. Why: Builders should stop injecting persona or stylistic constraints directly into the main system prompt if it affects reasoning. Instead, separate the generation of the core content from the formatting or stylistic translation to avoid degrading the model's primary task performance. prompt-engineering llms ai-agents
