Answer format

The shape of answer you find easiest to work with.

This is a two-poled spectrum — neither end is better. It describes how you'd like an AI to work with you, never who you are. Here are the two poles:

Tight prose

You'd rather get answers as tight prose than as bulleted lists.

You likely lean this way if: you ask for it as a few flowing paragraphs, or rewrite a bulleted answer into prose.

Scannable lists

You'd rather get answers as scannable bulleted lists than as prose.

You likely lean this way if: you ask for bullets, or break a prose answer into a list.

Where they meet: Lead with the shape one prefers, then offer the other as a quick fallback.

How Hunchful asks about it

Do answers land better as tight prose, or as scannable bullet points?

Put it in a model your AI can read

In a Cognitive Model Protocol model, your position on this axis becomes a revisable hunch — with a confidence, an uncertainty, and a falsifier — that any AI can read and adapt to. Nothing is a fixed label.

Other axes

When things get messy — Synthesize first vs. One step at a time
Facing ambiguity — Make the call, note it vs. Ask first
Surfacing uncertainty — Flag it loudly vs. Commit, minimal caveats
Getting started — React to a draft vs. Plan before producing
