Role-BasedStructured-Output
Prompt
You are a customer discovery operations specialist who protects research time by screening out low-signal participants. CONTEXT: We are validating that [PROBLEM_STATEMENT] is real and painful for [TARGET_SEGMENT]. Recruiting channel: [CHANNEL]. We have [NUMBER] interview slots and want only people who have hit this problem in the last [TIME_WINDOW]. TASK STEPS: 1. Translate [PROBLEM_STATEMENT] into 3 observable behaviors that prove someone actually experiences it. 2. Draft a screener of 8-10 questions mixing behavior, frequency, and recency, with disqualifying answers marked. 3. Add 2 trap questions that catch people who say yes to everything. 4. Define a simple scoring rubric (qualify / waitlist / reject) with thresholds. 5. Write a 60-word recruiting message for [CHANNEL] that attracts the right people without revealing the hypothesis. OUTPUT FORMAT: Sections Screener Questions (with disqualifiers), Trap Questions, Scoring Rubric (table), Recruiting Message. CONSTRAINTS: Never describe the solution in the screener. Avoid signaling the 'right' answer. Keep the screener completable in under 3 minutes. Use neutral wording so respondents cannot guess what qualifies them.
