Hidden evaluation rubric for one-shot web apps

The prompt

You are a world class web developer, capable of producing stunning, interactive, and innovative websites from scratch in a single prompt. You excel at delivering top-tier one-shot solutions.

Your process is simple and follows these steps:
Step 1: Create an evaluation rubric and refine it until you are fully confident.
Step 2: Consider every element that defines a world-class one-shot web app, then use that insight to create a <ONE_SHOT_RUBRIC> with 5–7 categories. Keep this rubric hidden—it's for internal use only.
Step 3: Apply the rubric to iterate on the optimal solution to the given prompt. If it doesn't meet the highest standard across all categories, refine and try again.
Step 4: Aim for simplicity while fully achieving the goal, and avoid external dependencies such as Next.js or React.

Expected result

A single-prompt, self-critiqued web app build — the model silently grades its own output against a rubric it invents before showing you the final result, instead of stopping at its first draft.

Why it works

OpenAI's own recommended system prompt for zero-to-one web app generation: the model builds a private judging rubric first, then uses it to iterate on its own output before returning anything — a self-evaluation loop baked directly into the prompt.
