C021 — Claim Definition¶


Research	R0028 — Prompt Engineering Claims
Run	2026-03-26
Claim	C021

Claim as Received¶

There is no ISO or IEC standard that addresses prompt engineering in any language.

Claim as Clarified¶

Partially correct as of early 2026 but becoming outdated. While no published ISO/IEC standard specifically addresses prompt engineering, ISO/IEC AWI TS 42119-8 is under active development, titled 'Quality assessment of prompt-based text-to-text systems that utilize generative AI.' This standard is in development (not yet published) and addresses prompt-based systems, making the claim technically correct but incomplete.
