When to use system prompts: Use system prompts when you want persistent behaviour across multiple messages, or when you need the AI to maintain a specific role, set of constraints, or output format throughout a conversation.
When to use inline instructions: Use inline instructions in the user message when the task is a one-off, or when you need to override or adjust the system prompt's defaults for a specific request.
