Prompt Map Builder

The Prompt Map Builder is a visual tool that helps you create system prompts for AI agents. Instead of staring at a blank text editor trying to write a wall of instructions, you work with a canvas of connected "nodes" — each one representing a piece of your prompt (role, tone, rules, examples, etc.).

Think of it as a flowchart for prompts. You pick a template, customize each section through guided forms, and the tool assembles a production-ready prompt for you in real-time.

Step 1: Open the Builder

Navigate to your Dashboard and click Prompt Map in the sidebar. You'll land on the template picker — a grid of pre-built starting points.

Step 2: Pick a Template

Click any template card to load it onto the canvas. Every field is already pre-filled with working defaults and examples — you can hit Export immediately and get a usable prompt, or customize everything.

Step 3: Edit the Nodes

Click into any node on the canvas to see its fields. Each field has a placeholder showing you what to type, helper text explaining why it matters, and sensible defaults you can keep or replace.

Step 4: Watch the Preview

The right panel shows your assembled prompt updating in real-time as you type. Every change you make in a node instantly appears in the preview. This is the actual text your AI agent will receive.

Step 5: Export

When you're happy, click Export to copy, download, or share your prompt. That's it.

Five templates are available, each pre-filled with different content:

The canvas is your workspace — a zoomable, pannable surface where your prompt nodes live. Here's everything you can do:

Navigation

• Scroll to zoom in and out (0.2x to 2x)
• Click and drag the background to pan around
• Use the minimap in the bottom-left corner for orientation
• Click "Fit View" in the toolbar to see all nodes at once

Moving Nodes

• Click and drag any node to move it
• Nodes snap to a 20px grid for clean alignment
• Connections between nodes update automatically as you move them

Connecting Nodes

• Each node has a dot at the top (input) and bottom (output)
• Drag from one node's output dot to another node's input dot to create a connection
• Connections determine the order sections appear in your final prompt
• Delete connections by selecting the line and pressing Delete/Backspace

Keyboard Shortcuts

Adding Nodes from the Palette

The left sidebar shows all available node types. Click the + button next to any type to add it to your canvas. Most node types can only be added once (except Knowledge, which can be duplicated for multiple sources). Nodes already on the canvas show "Added" and are grayed out.

Every node has a colored header, a collapse/expand toggle, a status indicator (green checkmark = complete, yellow warning = using defaults, red X = empty), and a three-dot menu with Duplicate, Reset to Default, and Delete options. Each also has a lightbulb button that explains why that section matters.

The Preview Panel

The right sidebar shows your fully assembled prompt, updating in real-time as you edit any node. The prompt is assembled by walking the node connections (or using default section order if there are no connections): Role, Tone, Knowledge, Rules, Examples, Tools, Memory, Opening, Closing, Context.

• Copy All button copies the entire prompt to your clipboard
• Word count and estimated token count shown at the bottom
• Edit as Text mode (pencil icon) lets you manually edit the output — though changes won't sync back to nodes

Quality Score

The Prompt Strength score (0-100) grades your prompt based on completeness:

The bar is colored red (<40), yellow (40-70), or green (>70). Below the score, you'll see the most impactful next step: "Add 2 example conversations to jump from 75 to 100."

Click the Export button in the preview panel (requires Role + at least one other node). A modal opens with three tabs:

Copy

Toggle between Markdown (with headers) and Plain Text (headers stripped). Click Copy to Clipboard — paste directly into ChatGPT, Claude, your API call, or wherever you use system prompts.

Download

• .md — Markdown file with section headers and formatting (recommended)
• .json — Structured JSON with metadata (name, type, version, timestamp, strength score) plus the full prompt. Great for programmatic use.
• .txt — Plain text, no formatting

Share

Generate a unique shareable link (requires sign-in). Anyone with the link can view your prompt map in read-only mode, see all the nodes on the canvas, copy the assembled prompt, and build their own version. Social sharing buttons for X and LinkedIn are included.

Shareable Links

Each shared prompt map gets a unique URL at promptsforeveryone.com/p/[short-id]. The viewer sees your canvas in read-only mode with a "Copy Prompt" button and a "Build Your Own" link.

Community Library

Pro users can publish their prompt maps to the Community Library at /community. Browse and filter by agent type, search by title, and see strength scores. Fork any community prompt to start with a proven foundation.

Account Tiers

On screens smaller than 768px, the canvas switches to an accordion layout — same nodes, same fields, same editing, just stacked vertically instead of on a canvas. Each section is expandable/collapsible. The Quality Score and prompt preview are available at the bottom.
