+1 for "context engineering" over "prompt engineering". People associate prompts with short task descriptions you'd give an LLM in your day-to-day use. When in every industrial-strength LLM app, context engineering is the delicate art and science of filling the context window
Haha I'm not trying to coin a new word or something. I just think people's use of "prompt" tends to (incorrectly) trivialize a rather complex component. You prompt an LLM to tell you why the sky is blue. But apps build contexts (meticulously) for LLMs to solve their custom tasks.
