A solid prompting structure for grok-code-fast-1 is goal-first, context-scoped, and agentic: define the objective, supply only the necessary code/docs, specify constraints and interfaces, and iterate rapidly in short loops leveraging its speed and low cost. Below is a consolidated, working guide distilled from official docs and community practice.
Prioritize an explicit goal and minimal, relevant context; this model is tuned for fast, multi-step coding with tool use, not verbose one-shot essays.
Work iteratively: fire quick attempts, inspect reasoning/output, refine the next turn; the speed and pricing make rapid loops optimal.
Think agentic: break work into steps, define tools or functions, and request structured outputs to chain actions programmatically.
