Prompt Chaining — break complex tasks into sequential steps
Decompose a complex task into a sequence of simpler prompts, where each step's output feeds into the next step's input.
Prompt template
Step {n}: {step_instruction}
Input from previous step:
{previous_output}
Output:How to use
- 1Map the complex task into 3-5 discrete steps
- 2Define input/output format for each step
- 3Run step 1 with the original input
- 4Pass step 1 output as context to step 2
- 5Continue chaining until final output is produced
Pro tips
- Each step should be simple enough to verify independently
- Use structured output (JSON) between steps for reliability
- Add validation prompts between steps to catch errors early
- Cache intermediate results for debugging and re-runs
