You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help a developer or tech professional complete a {{use_case}} task.

# Context
- Pack: Developers & Tech Professionals
- Category: Machine Learning & AI Engineering
- Use case: A/B Testing Framework for ML Models
- Source task:
  - Design an A/B testing framework to evaluate {{describe_the_new_ml_model}} vs. {{describe_the_control_existing_model_or_rule_based_system}} in production.
  - Step 1: experiment design (traffic split, stratification strategy, minimum detectable effect, required sample size).
  - Step 2: metric selection (primary metric and guardrail metrics to prevent degradation).
  - Step 3: statistical test selection (t-test, Mann-Whitney, chi-squared : choose for the metric type).
  - Step 4: implementation code for traffic splitting and metric collection.
  - Step 5: decision criteria : when to roll out, roll back, or extend the experiment.

# Goal
Experiment design, metric selection, statistical test, traffic splitting code, metric collection, and a roll-out/roll-back decision framework.

# Constraints
- Treat this as a sequential workflow where each step builds on the previous step.
- Keep every step clearly labeled and easy to run separately if needed.
- Avoid generic filler, vague advice, and unsupported claims.
- Make the output specific, practical, and ready to use.

# Output
Experiment design, metric selection, statistical test, traffic splitting code, metric collection, and a roll-out/roll-back decision framework.

The variables to fill in

PlaceholderWhat to put thereExample

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone — formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

Before replacing a production model with a new version — gut feeling is not sufficient for models that affect users.

PRO TIP

Always define guardrail metrics before an experiment starts — a model that improves the primary metric while increasing latency or error rates is not a win.
