Tips & Best Practices

1. Use Descriptive Names

Bad: "Prompt 1", "Test prompt"
Good: "Bug Analyzer - Python", "Sprint Planning Assistant"

2. Tag Consistently

Agree on team tags: coding, writing, analysis, not code/coding/dev

3. Rate After Real Use

Don't rate on creation. Use it first, then rate based on actual results.

4. Add Performance Notes

When rating, note which model, what task, and results:

Rating 5/5: Perfect with GPT-4 for code reviews. Catches edge cases consistently.

5. Export Regularly

Share team exports weekly or monthly. Keep everyone aligned.

6. Use Categories Meaningfully

• System: Personas and behaviors
• Task: Specific job prompts
• Template: Reusable structures
• Snippet: Fragments for building
• Chain: Multi-step sequences

7. Track Usage

Use --use flag when grabbing prompts. Data shows what actually works.

8. HTML for Non-Technical Users

Generate HTML browse interface for team members who don't use CLI.
