prompts

prompts is an MIT-licensed collection of LLM prompts by @sneak, including development policy prompts and other useful prompts for working with large language models.

Quick Start

Bring an existing repo up to standards (run from within the repo):

export TD="$(mktemp -d)"
export INSTRUCTIONS="Read $TD/prompts/REPO_POLICIES.md and
$TD/prompts/EXISTING_REPO_CHECKLIST.md, then bring this repo up to those
standards. Be very careful to follow the policies yourself while
making these changes, ie: do your work on a feature branch, make each
change as a separate commit, make a formatting commit up front, et cetera."
git clone --depth 1 https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/prompts.git "$TD" && claude "$INSTRUCTIONS"

Start a new repo from scratch:

export TD="$(mktemp -d)"
export INSTRUCTIONS="Read $TD/prompts/REPO_POLICIES.md and
$TD/prompts/NEW_REPO_CHECKLIST.md, then set up this new repo according
to those standards. Be very careful to follow the policies yourself while
making these changes, ie: do your work on a feature branch, make each
change as a separate commit, et cetera."
git clone --depth 1 https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/prompts.git "$TD" && claude "$INSTRUCTIONS"

Getting Started

git clone https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/prompts.git
cd prompts

Prompts are stored as Markdown files in prompts/. Copy or reference them as needed in your projects.

Rationale

LLM prompts, especially development policies, benefit from version control and a single authoritative source. This repo provides a central place to maintain, share, and evolve prompts across projects.

Design

The repository is a collection of Markdown files organized in the prompts/ subdirectory. Each file contains one or more related prompts or policy documents. There is no build step or runtime component; the prompts are consumed by copying them into other projects or referencing them directly.

TODO

  • Add more prompt templates for common development tasks
