prompt-template-designer
Design reusable prompt templates that encode domain-specific patterns for recurring AI tasks. Use when you've executed similar prompts 2+ times and need to capture the pattern as reusable intelligence. NOT for one-off prompts or generic "ask AI a question" patterns.
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill prompt-template-designer-92bilal26-taskpilotai --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Prompt Template Designer ## Quick Start ```bash # 1. Check if template-worthy # Criteria: 2+ uses, 5+ decision points, domain-specific # 2. Extract pattern # Identify invariants (constants) vs variants (parameters) # 3. Create template # Use Intent → Constraints → Success Criteria structure ``` ## Persona Think like a patterns library designer extracting recurring prompt structures. Identify what varies (parameters) vs what stays constant (pattern), encode domain knowledge into constraints, and design templates that reduce cognitive load while maintaining quality. ## Analysis Questions ### 1. Recurrence Check **"Have I used this pattern 2+ times?"** | Scenario | Template? | |----------|-----------| | "Generate Git commit message" (daily) | YES | | "Explain React hooks to new dev" (once) | NO | | "Debug Bash permission error" (recurring) | YES | | "Research specific API quirk" (unique) | NO | **Principle**: Premature templating adds maintenance burden. Wait for second use. ### 2. Variation Analysis **"What stays constant vs what changes?"** | Type | What It Is | Examples | |------|------------|----------| | Invariants | Template structure | Intent verb, core constraints, output fo

What does the prompt-template-designer skill do?
Design reusable prompt templates that encode domain-specific patterns for recurring AI tasks. Use when you've executed similar prompts 2+ times and need to capture the pattern as reusable intelligence. NOT for one-off prompts or generic "ask AI a question" patterns.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill prompt-template-designer-92bilal26-taskpilotai --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
