Tips

Write Instructions in the first person with clear guidelines: persona, tasks, topic boundaries, and desired tone. The more precise, the better the answers.
Predefined questions help users who don’t know what to ask. Well suited for standard concerns (e.g., “Where can I find my order?”).
Always set rate limits to control costs and abuse. A small number per minute plus a daily upper limit is usually sensible.
