I've found that you need to be very careful when asking it to modify things it produced directly without making significant changes to the regex it provides. Once I get to the 3rd or 4th iteration of asking it to modify previous responses I've found the likelihood that it starts hallucinating to increase dramatically. The best solution I've found to this is to put your entire request in a single prompt that walks it through all requirements step-by-step.
