Activation

This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.

A library of reusable, production-tested prompt engineering patterns for building AI-powered features. Use when designing system prompts for apps, building AI pipelines, selecting the right prompting technique for a use case, or reviewing prompts for common failure modes. Complements the prompt-engineering skill (which covers the optimization framework); this skill covers the pattern library itself.

When not to use it

  • →Simple single-step tasks for CoT
  • →Over-general tasks for Role + Constraint

Limitations

  • →CoT adds overhead to small models
  • →Few-shot has high variability

How it compares

It offers a structured library of patterns rather than generic prompting advice.
