arXiv:2607.06145v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we define the quantity of prompting complexity: for a fixed instruction-tuned language model, what is the shortest plausible prompt that makes deterministic decoding produce a target text? It is an LM-relative analogue of resource-bounded Kolmogorov complexity: the prompt is a program, the model interface is the interpreter, and information omitted from the prompt is supplied by the model's weights, training distribution, tokenizer, template, and decoding rule. Unlike classical Kolmogorov complexity, this measure is intentionally n
