Prompt Pattern Library

A library of 40+ prompt patterns used repeatedly in a production multi-agent system, documented with the template, the reasoning behind each pattern, when to use it over alternatives, and the failure modes to watch for.

Coverage: research synthesis, meta-prompting, chain-of-thought variants, and output structuring (typed JSON, structured XML, markdown tables). Includes a section on patterns that consistently underperform and why.

Each entry: the prompt template with annotated variables, an explanation of why it works, the output format it produces, and common mistakes.

What is included: the full library as a structured markdown document, organised by use case with an index.

Best for AI operators who want a reference doc for prompt patterns rather than rediscovering them session by session.
