Skip-risk reordering
A prompt-writing convention where the feature most likely to be skipped or de-prioritized goes first in a multi-feature prompt.
What it is
When AI agents work through a long prompt, they sometimes truncate or skip later sections. The skip-risk convention puts the highest-risk-of-being-skipped feature first, ensuring it gets full attention. The convention is part of Orbit's prompt review checklist.
When you would use it
You apply skip-risk reordering during prompt drafting and review. Prompt review checks for it.
Common operations
