Stress-test my understanding with edge cases
Use when you think you understand a rule but want to see if it holds at the boundaries.
I think I understand {{concept}}. Stress-test it with edge cases.
My current understanding: {{my_understanding}}
Hit me with the tricky boundary cases: the exceptions, the degenerate inputs, the situations where the simple rule breaks or flips. Ask me one edge-case question at a time and let me answer before revealing whether the rule still holds.
After we go through {{count}} cases, summarize: where my mental model is solid, where it cracks, and the refined version of the rule that survives all the edge cases. Be sneaky with the cases; that is the point.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
