Purpose
This project is an open-source prompt library, originally named Awesome ChatGPT Prompts and now operating under the name prompts.chat. It is designed to help users make better use of ChatGPT and other modern AI assistants by sharing, discovering, and collecting prompts through the community. The prompts are suitable for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Mistral, and many other models.
Main Capabilities
- Provides a large number of community-contributed prompts that can be browsed, discovered, and collected.
- Supports self-hosting, allowing organizations to deploy a private prompt library with custom branding, themes, and authentication (GitHub/Google/Azure AD).
- Includes a free interactive prompt engineering book with 28+ chapters, covering everything from the basics to advanced techniques (such as chain-of-thought reasoning, few-shot learning, and AI agents).
- Provides an interactive game-based prompt learning adventure for children aged 8-14.
- Provides a Claude Code plugin.
- Can be used as an MCP server in AI tools (remote method recommended).
How to Use
- Browse prompts: visit the project website or GitHub repository.
- Contribute prompts: add them at prompts.chat/prompts/new, and they will automatically sync to the repository.
- Self-host: use the setup wizard to configure branding, themes, authentication, and features; PostgreSQL is recommended as the database, and Neon is recommended for hosted databases. Complete self-hosting guides and Docker guides are provided.
- Read the interactive book: start reading from the link provided by the project.
- Children's learning: start the game through the link provided by the project.
- Use the Claude Code plugin: refer to the plugin documentation.
- Use as an MCP server: refer to the MCP documentation; the remote method is recommended.
Applicable Scenarios
- Individual users looking for and using high-quality prompts to improve AI interaction results.
- Organizations that need a private, customizable prompt library and want full control over data privacy.
- Educators or parents using the interactive book and children's game to teach prompt engineering.
- Developers integrating the prompt library into their workflows through the Claude Code plugin or MCP server.
Limitations
- Specific fees, prices, platform compatibility details, performance guarantees, and similar information are not explained in the provided materials and are not currently available.
- Self-hosting requires technical configuration, involving database and authentication setup.
- Prompt content is community-contributed, so quality may vary.
