I feel like "prompting language" doesn't translate over perfectly either. It's like we become experts at operating a particular AI agent.

I've been experimenting with small local models and the types of prompts you use with these are very different than the ones you use with Claude Code. It seems less different between Claude, Codex, and Gemini but there are differences.

It's hard to articulate those differences but I think that I kind of get in a groove after using models for a while.
