    ## Level 1: Ad hoc prompt
    - Quick, natural language prompts for rapid prototyping
    - Perfect for exploring model capabilities and behaviors
    - Can be run across multiple models for comparison
    - Great for one-off tasks and experimentation

    ## Level 2: Structured prompt
    - Reusable prompts with clear purpose and instructions
    - Uses XML/structured format for better model performance
    - Contains static variables that can be modified
    - Solves well-defined, repeatable problems

    ## Level 3: Structured prompt with example output
    - Builds on Level 2 by adding example outputs
    - Examples guide the model to produce specific formats
    - Increases consistency and reliability of outputs
    - Perfect for when output format matters

    ## Level 4: Structured prompt with dynamic content
    - Production-ready prompts with dynamic variables
    - Can be integrated into code and applications
    - Infinitely scalable through programmatic updates
    - Foundation for building AI-powered tools and agents
