B.5.2.0:14.1 - Minimal prompt package
A robust abductive prompt should make explicit:
- the prompt species,
- the open question,
- the motivating cue or route provenance,
- the contrast set, if one is already visible,
- the scope in which the question is being asked,
- and the witnesses or cue grounds that justify beginning abduction.
This package lets downstream conjectures be tested against the same question rather than against a rewritten paraphrase.
For specialization-sensitive prompt species, the package should also make explicit the declared task family or utility target, the threshold or success condition being probed, the current budget window, the prior route provenance, and the rival prompt shapes still in play.
