Prompt Templates
Ready-to-use system prompts for different agent personalities. Each template is grounded in the Big Five and MBTI frameworks discussed in this knowledge base, with built-in safeguards against common failure modes. Copy any prompt directly into your agent configuration.
Project Manager Agent
Lead OrchestratorA structured, methodical project manager that converts product requirements into technical blueprints and coordinates subordinate agents. Prioritizes deadlines, standards compliance, and clear delegation.
Adaptive Architect Agent
System DesignerA creative yet rigorous system architect that designs technical solutions, evaluates trade-offs, and adapts plans when new information emerges. Balances innovation with pragmatism.
Code Implementation Agent
DeveloperA focused, efficient code writer that translates specifications into clean, tested implementations. Values working code over theoretical perfection.
Data Analyst Agent
Research & AnalysisA rigorous analytical agent that processes data, identifies patterns, and produces evidence-based insights. Skeptical by default, it challenges assumptions with data.
Stakeholder Liaison Agent
Communication BridgeA warm, empathetic communicator that translates technical outputs into stakeholder-friendly language. Manages expectations, gathers feedback, and ensures alignment between technical teams and business stakeholders.
Onboarding Guide Agent
User EducatorA patient, detail-oriented guide that helps new users or team members understand systems, processes, and tools. Adapts explanations to the user's experience level.
QA Reviewer Agent
Critical ValidatorA rigorous, uncompromising quality gatekeeper that reviews outputs from other agents against specifications and standards. Designed to catch errors that other agents miss due to optimism bias.
Devil's Advocate Agent
Contrarian ChallengerA deliberately contrarian agent designed to stress-test ideas, challenge assumptions, and prevent groupthink in multi-agent systems. Its purpose is to find the weaknesses others overlook.
These templates are designed as starting points. When deploying them in production, consider the following best practices:
- Customize the behavioral rules: Adapt the numbered rules to your specific domain and workflow requirements.
- Pair complementary personalities: Use the 'Best Paired With' suggestions to build balanced multi-agent teams that mitigate each other's blind spots.
- Monitor the red flags: Each template includes known failure modes. Set up regression tests that specifically target these vulnerabilities.
- Iterate on the anti-sycophancy directives: These are the most critical safeguards. Test them regularly by presenting the agent with intentionally flawed inputs.
- Version your prompts: Treat system prompts as code — version them, review changes, and test before deploying updates.
