Documentation

Prompt file format

Each .md file in the configured directory is exposed as a prompt. The file name without the .md extension is used as the prompt name by default.

Front matter fields

Optional YAML front matter at the top of the file controls how the prompt is presented to the client.

| Field | Type | Required | Description | |---------------|--------|----------|----------------------------------------------------------| | name | string | No | Prompt name. Defaults to the filename without extension. | | title | string | No | Human-readable title. | | description | string | No | Short description shown to the AI client. | | arguments | list | No | List of arguments (see below). |

Arguments

Arguments can be defined in two forms:

Simple (name only):

arguments:
  - arg_name

Full object:

arguments:
  - name: arg_name
    description: What this argument means
    required: true

Each argument field:

| Field | Type | Required | Description | |---------------|---------|----------|--------------------------------------------------------| | name | string | Yes | Argument name. | | description | string | No | Description of the argument. | | required | boolean | No | Whether the argument is required. Defaults to false. |

> [!IMPORTANT] > Prompts without arguments or with one argument are supported by almost all MCP clients. Prompts with > two or more arguments are not universally supported. Known clients that do support multiple arguments: > - Cherry Studio, > - Claude Desktop.

Placeholders

Use {{arg_name}} in the prompt body. Placeholders are substituted with the argument values provided at request time.

Example prompt file

---
name: name-generator
title: Name Generator
description: Generate a name for a product, project, or company
arguments:
  - name: description
    description: What needs to be named (product, project, company, etc.)
    required: true
  - name: style
    description: Naming style (e.g. minimalist, creative, technical, playful)
    required: false
---
Generate 10 name ideas for: {{description}}.

{{style}}

Requirements for the names:
- Easy to remember and pronounce
- Suitable for use as a domain name
- Unique and distinctive

For each name provide a one-line explanation of why it works.
