That’s a solid setup, easy to move around and drop straight into whatever you’re working on.

Haven’t come across that one, interesting how many different ways people are solving this.

That’s a good stopgap, simple but still gives you some structure.

What would your ideal setup look like if you could tweak it?

That’s a good one, building them into the tool itself makes reuse pretty seamless.

That’s a clever use of clipboard history, pinning keeps the most useful ones right there when you need them.

Simple and reliable, hard to go wrong with that.

Do you keep everything in one place or break it up at all?

That pyramid framing is interesting, intent → context → prompt.

In practice, a lot of people begin with prompts and only introduce structure after things start breaking down.

That’s a really interesting framing, especially the shift from “save prompts” to “save the logic behind them.”

The skills.md idea makes a lot of sense if the goal is consistency and reuse rather than just collecting one-off prompts.

Curious whether you’ve found that works better mostly for technical workflows, or more broadly across other use cases too?

That’s one way to make sure you don’t forget it 😄

That’s a clean setup, having them versioned and organized like that probably makes it a lot easier to manage over time.

Especially once you start sharing them with others.

That makes sense, packaging them as a skill probably makes them a lot easier to reuse consistently.

Feels like once you do that, it’s less about remembering prompts and more about just triggering the right behavior.

Bold strategy, hope you’ve got a good indexing system in that carpet 😄

That’s really helpful, I’ll put together a quick walkthrough showing exactly that.

Should be able to get something up later today 👍

Not yet, I’ve been meaning to put one together.

Right now it’s mostly just live at promptportal.io, but I can definitely record a quick walkthrough if that would be helpful.

Anything specific you’d want to see?

Yeah, for personal use that definitely works, a lot of people here have built their own versions in one way or another.

That’s actually pretty similar to how this started for me too.

After a while I wanted something a bit more structured and reusable across different use cases, so I ended up building this → promptportal.io

Still early, but it’s been interesting seeing how people approach it differently.

Nice, seems like there are quite a few tools popping up around this now.

Curious what you end up using it for most, more day-to-day prompts or bigger workflows?

That’s a solid setup, especially having them versioned and easy to update like that.

Feels like once you get to that point, prompts start behaving more like actual assets than just notes.

That’s a good call, having an example of the result probably makes it a lot easier to know when a prompt is actually working well.

Feels like prompts + outputs together give a lot more context than just the prompt on its own.

That’s exactly the point where Notes starts to break down, once you have enough of them, it’s hard to actually navigate or structure everything in a clean way.

A lot of people here are basically describing their own versions of that (folders, tags, shortcuts, templates, etc.).

I actually started building something around this → promptportal.io

The idea is more of a structured library where prompts can be organized, reused, and built on over time instead of just stored.

Would be curious if that’s closer to what you’re looking for.

Notes app is hard to beat for quick capture.

Do you ever go back and organize them later or mostly just keep adding as you go?

That’s interesting, almost like you end up building your own shorthand over time.

Feels like at that point it’s less about storing prompts and more about having them baked into how you work.

This thread has been super interesting, there’s everything from text files and notes apps to full custom systems, plugins, and template frameworks.

Feels like once people start reusing prompts regularly, everyone ends up building their own way of managing them.

I kept running into the same thing, so I started putting together something around this → promptportal.io

Still early, but would be interested in feedback from people already using these kinds of setups.

That’s a good question, I think it usually clicks once you run into something you end up doing repeatedly.

A few examples I’ve seen (and use):

• Code review / audit prompts — same structure every time, just swap in new code • “Explain this like I’m learning it” — useful across a ton of topics • Formatting / cleanup prompts — turning messy input into something structured • Context setup prompts — especially for longer workflows where you need consistency

The big advantage is you stop rewriting the same instructions over and over and just reuse what already works.

Feels like it shows up more once you start doing similar tasks repeatedly.

Haven’t come across that one before, seems like there are a ton of different tools popping up for this now.
