# Prompt Templates

Use these templates to create your own custom prompts.

## How to Create a Custom Prompt

1. Copy `prompt_template.md` to the appropriate phase folder:
   ```bash
   cp templates/prompt_template.md drafting/my_custom_prompt.md
   ```

2. Edit the file:
   - Give it a clear name/title
   - Fill in the parameters relevant to your use case
   - Write or adapt the prompt instructions
   - Add usage examples

3. Use it:
   > "Use the `my_custom_prompt` prompt from drafting to write..."

## Template Structure

Every prompt should have:

1. **Header** — Name, phase, and what it's best for
2. **Parameters** — Editable values in a table
3. **The Prompt** — The actual instructions
4. **Self-Edit Checklist** — Verification points
5. **Usage Example** — How to ask Claude to use it
