HOW-TO
How to fix prompts scattered across tools
When working copies live in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and Slack, nobody knows which wording is current. This how-to moves the prompts that matter into a private team library — with owners, versions, and share tiers.
WHY IT MATTERS
Scatter has a cost
- Drift
Five copies mean five tones. Quality depends on which tool someone opened.
- Onboarding
New starters ask around and get five answers.
- No rollback
You cannot roll back a change you never recorded.
HOW TO
Fix prompts scattered across tools — inventory to reuse
- Inventory
List the prompts that affect clients, brand, or compliance — ignore one-off experiments.
- Create
Add each working copy to your org catalogue with an owner and folder.
- Version
Publish the approved wording; note why it changed when you revise.
- Share
Set private, group, or org visibility with view / use / manage rights.
- Reuse
Point agents and teammates at the catalogue — keep using ChatGPT and Claude as runtimes.
WHAT YOU GET
Team library, not another doc dump
- Draft and publish
Editing a published prompt opens a draft. Nothing reaches the team until you publish.
- Share tiers
Private, group, or organisation — with permissions that scale.
- Agent reuse
Reference approved prompts inside agent packages.
- Keys stay out
Do not paste API keys into prompt text — use the secrets vault.
