Before and after prompts for Emergent

Rough request on the left, the PromptDC rewrite on the right.

Before

Build a site where renters can request apartment viewings.

After

Build a responsive apartment viewing request app for renters and listing agents. Screens: listing details, time selection, renter confirmation, and agent request inbox. Data: listing, renter, requested time, alternate time, response, and status. Let agents confirm a request or suggest another time and notify the renter in the app.

Why this is better: The prompt adds users, screens, and scheduling states so Emergent can build a complete full stack flow.

Before

Fix the mobile filters hiding the clear button.

After

Fix the admin filters so selected values and Clear all remain visible on small phones. Inspect the current filter sheet, order page, and URL query state before editing. Preserve browser history, active filters, and the existing desktop table behavior. Verify the layout at narrow widths with one filter, several filters, and long labels.

Why this is better: The prompt adds responsive cases and state safeguards so Emergent can repair the mobile interface.

Before

Add an admin queue for approving marketplace listings.

After

Build a permissioned moderation queue for marketplace listings. Screens: queue, listing preview, decision dialog, and moderation history. Actions: approve, reject, or request changes with a required reason where appropriate. Data: seller, category, submission time, risk flags, media, reviewer, reason, and status.

Why this is better: The prompt defines moderation roles, decisions, and records so Emergent can generate the workflow.
