What it does

Prompt Architect is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Comprehensive framework for analyzing, creating, and refining prompts for AI systems. Use when creating prompts for Claude, ChatGPT, or other language models, improving existing prompts, or applying evidence-based prompt engineering techniques. Applies structural optimization, self-consistency patterns, and anti-pattern detection to transform prompts into highly effective versions.

Its SKILL.md is about 4.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `references/anti-patterns.md` and `skill-report.json`).

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Prompt engineering. It works with OpenAI. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Creating prompts for Claude
  • Other language models
  • Improving existing prompts
  • Applying evidence-based prompt engineering techniques

Example prompts

  • “/prompt-architect”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Clarify Core Intent First
  2. Restructure for Attention and Flow
  3. Add Necessary Context
  4. Apply Evidence-Based Techniques
  5. Build in Quality Mechanisms
  6. Address Edge Cases and Failure Modes
  7. Optimize Output Specification

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 44923f3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Prompt Architect loads about 4.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,006 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~100
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~6.2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,006 words (~4,220 tokens).

“A comprehensive framework for creating, analyzing, and refining prompts for AI language models using evidence-based techniques, structural optimization principles, and systematic anti-pattern detection.”
