The prompt tells Claude to analyze a Python snippet, identify bugs or errors, return a corrected version and explain each problem and fix, with code that is functional, efficient and follows Python best practices. It is the system prompt of the Python bug buster entry in Anthropic’s prompt library, where the buggy code is passed as the user message. To adapt it, keep it as the system prompt and send your own code as the message.
The prompt is quoted from Python bug buster - Claude API Docs.
