Skill0 starsChanged 4 months agoMITView on GitHub
Curated collection of high-quality prompts for various tasks - role-based templates, analysis frameworks, code review prompts, and brainstorming structures. Use when building prompts for specific roles, needing analysis or brainstorming frameworks, creating code review prompts, or searching for proven prompt patterns and structures. DO NOT USE FOR: LLM application architecture (use llm-app-patterns), actual code review execution (use guardian), deciding what features to build or exploring requirements (use brainstorming), or prompt injection defense (use security-boundaries). NOTE: This library supplies brainstorming-style prompt templates (e.g., 'Brainstorm Features') for use within a brainstorming session; it does not conduct the brainstorming itself.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 5 edited versions we read keep these.
4
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 51
If the requested category is not listed above, suggest the closest alternative or recommend prompt-builder to create a new one.
- Distinctive: line 55
Does NOT execute prompts or validate outputs (provides templates only)
- Distinctive: line 56
Does NOT replace domain expertise (prompts need subject matter context)
- Distinctive: line 57
Does NOT guarantee model behavior (outputs vary by model, temperature, and context)
- Distinctive: line 58
Does NOT store sensitive data in prompt templates
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 5 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Prompt Library
Version: 9.0 | Updated: 01-July-2026 | Architect: Karim Bhalwani |
Curated collection of high-quality prompts for various use cases, organized by task type.
Router
Load references/prompt-templates.md automatically whenever a user requests a specific prompt template. If the file cannot be loaded, inform the user and list the categories below.
Role-Based
- Expert Developer - Code review and mentoring
- Code Reviewer - Structured code feedback (Critical / Suggestions / Praise)
- Technical Writer - Documentation clarity
- System Architect - Design with trade-off analysis
Task-Specific
- Debug This Code - Problem ID, root cause, fix, prevention
- Explain Like I'm 5 (ELI5) - Simplified explanation with analogies
- Code Refactoring - Readability-first refactoring with before/after
- Write Tests - Happy path, edge cases, errors, boundaries
- API Documentation - Endpoint specification (OpenAPI/Markdown)
Analysis
- Code Complexity Analysis - Cyclomatic, coupling, cohesion, debt
- Performance Analysis - Big-O, I/O bottlenecks, quick wins
- Security Review - Input validation, auth, injection, dependencies (Critical/High/Med/Low)
Creative & Transformation
- Brainstorm Features - 10 ideas + impact/effort ranking
- Name Generator - Descriptive / Evocative / Acronyms / Metaphorical
- Migrate Code - Cross-language/framework migration
- Convert Format - Format-to-format conversion
If the requested category is not listed above, suggest the closest alternative or recommend prompt-builder to create a new one.
Constraints
- Does NOT execute prompts or validate outputs (provides templates only)
- Does NOT replace domain expertise (prompts need subject matter context)
- Does NOT guarantee model behavior (outputs vary by model, temperature, and context)
- Does NOT store sensitive data in prompt templates
Integration Points
- prompt-builder: Uses templates from this library as starting points for new prompts
- ai-engineer: Consumes prompt patterns for RAG and agent system prompts
- brainstorming: Supplies brainstorming-style prompt templates for use inside a brainstorming session
- guardian: Reviews prompts for security (injection resistance) and quality
References
Load these when building or reviewing prompts:
- prompt-templates.md - Copy-ready prompt bodies for every category listed in the Prompt Catalog above (role-based, task-specific, analysis, creative). Load when you need the actual prompt text.
- prompt-library.md - Curated prompt meta-catalog with prompt engineering best practices, customization guidance, and chaining patterns. Load for prompt design technique, not template bodies.
- sample_prompt.md - Worked example of a well-structured prompt with all required elements. Load when the user needs a concrete reference for prompt format, section order, and quality criteria.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
