Task · Action · Goal

A tight three-part prompt framework that forces clarity on what to do, how to do it, and what success looks like.

The components

TTask
The specific thing being asked of the LLM.
AAction
How the LLM should approach it (the verb-driven steps).
GGoal
Why this matters — the success criterion and intended outcome.

Worked example

Rough prompt

Help me decide whether to take a job offer.

Super-prompt produced by TAG

[Task] Help me weigh up a job offer I have received.
[Action] Ask three clarifying questions to understand the offer, my current situation, and my priorities. Then produce a 6-row decision matrix scoring the offer against my current role across compensation, growth, autonomy, lifestyle, risk, and gut feel. End with a one-sentence recommendation and the single biggest risk to the recommendation.
[Goal] By the end of this conversation, I should be able to give a yes/no answer with the top two reasons and the strongest counter-argument clearly articulated.
