Prompt Architect

Transform vague prompts into expert-level, structured prompts using 27 research-backed frameworks across 7 intent categories.

Works with Claude Code, ChatGPT, Gemini CLI, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, OpenAI Codex, and 30+ Agent Skills compatible tools.

Quick Start

npx @ckelsoe/prompt-architect

The interactive installer detects your AI agents (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Copilot, Codex, and more) and lets you choose where to install.

Important: Use npx, not npm install. The npx command runs the interactive multi-agent installer. Running npm install will only install to Claude Code silently via the postinstall hook.

Requires .npmrc with @ckelsoe:registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com and a GitHub token with read:packages scope.

Overview

Prompt Architect is an Agent Skills compatible skill that elevates your prompting capabilities through:

• Intelligent Analysis - Evaluates prompts across 5 quality dimensions (clarity, specificity, context, completeness, structure)
• Framework Recommendation - Suggests the best framework(s) for your specific use case with clear reasoning
• Guided Dialogue - Asks targeted clarifying questions to gather missing information progressively
• Systematic Application - Applies selected framework to transform your prompt
• Iterative Refinement - Continues improving based on feedback until perfect

Target Audience:

• Developers using AI coding agents (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Copilot, etc.)
• Prompt engineers optimizing LLM interactions
• AI practitioners seeking systematic prompt improvement
• Teams wanting consistent, high-quality prompts
