# GDR Prompt Creation
Create focused Gemini Deep Research prompts using NSB v0.4's layered constraint architecture.
## Core Concept
GDR's iterative research can cascade into unproductive territory. NSB prevents this through three constraint layers applied in sequence:
| Layer | Function | Operates On |
|-------|----------|-------------|
| **Anchors** | Immutable facts (budget, hardware, timeline) | Context |
| **Walls** | Hard exclusions—entire domains OFF-LIMITS | Search vectors |
| **Gates** | Conditional inclusion—PERMITTED ONLY IF | Source evaluation |
**Key insight:** Walls collapse the search space *before* GDR begins iterating. Gates filter *during* synthesis. Both are needed.
## Workflow
### 1. Extract Anchors
Ask: "What are the non-negotiable facts about your situation?"
Target categories:
- **Physical**: Space constraints, hardware specs, location
- **Economic**: Budget ceiling, ongoing costs acceptable
- **Temporal**: Deadlines, timeline requirements
- **Role/Scope**: What problem this solves, what it doesn't need to do
Anchors are facts, not preferences. If it could change based on research findings, it's not an anchor.
### 2. Derive Walls
For each anchor, ask: "What entire categories does this eliminate?"
Pattern: `NO [domain] ([brief justification tied to anchor])`
Good walls:
- Eliminate domains that *always* violate anchors
- Are keyword/topic level (not source-specific)
- Include parenthetical justification to prevent drift
Bad walls:
- Exclude
