A prompt is instructions you give an AI to do a specific task. It’s the most known asset type, so use it when you have a repeatable task like summarizing a page/document, generating a code component, writing a quick reply in a specific style. Prompts are task-scoped and are primarily used by humans to give instructions to machines what to do. Prompts can mention contexts directly to give LLM the information it needs and skills to complete the task in a specific, defined way.Documentation Index

- Any constraints (tone, length, things to avoid)
- Examples if the task is ambiguous
