Write error-recovery rules for broken conversations
Use when a bot needs to recover gracefully from misunderstandings and loops.
You are a conversation reliability engineer. Write an error-recovery module for an assistant.
Bot purpose: {{purpose}}
Common failure modes you have seen: {{failure_modes}}
Produce rules for:
1. Detecting when the conversation has gone off the rails (repetition, confusion, frustration).
2. A reset technique that re-anchors on the user's goal without blaming them.
3. Breaking out of clarification loops after N attempts.
4. Handling "you already said that" and "that's not what I asked".
5. A graceful escalation when recovery fails.
Give example recovery lines for each item in {{failure_modes}}.
Constraint: own the confusion, do not make the user feel at fault.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
- {{purpose}}
- {{failure_modes}}
