# Promptkit
Promptkit is a reusable Go library for preparing and executing prompt-defined
LLM workflows. Its module path is:
```text
gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit
```
The root `promptkit` package provides the supported public engine. Consumers
can configure file, embedded, or programmatic backend, profile, and prompt
definitions alongside filesystem or in-memory schemas,
prepare requests without generation, run requests with the built-in
OpenAI-compatible client, or inject their own model client and artifact reader.
## Quickstart
Run the maintained offline preparation example from the repository root:
```sh
go run ./examples/go-library/prepare
```
It composes two explicitly selected synthetic collections, imports
source-relative prompt content, supplies an inline input, and prepares through
a scoped view. The example also demonstrates collection inventories and
namespace-filtered discovery, without contacting a provider or requiring
credentials.
The [consumer guide](docs/consumers/pkg-promptkit.md) also shows a local backend,
ordered file/embedded sources, programmatic mappings, and how to replace an
engine when source files change. Read the
[example source](examples/go-library/prepare/main.go), the
[Go package consumer guide](docs/consumers/pkg-promptkit.md), and the
[framework format reference](docs/formats.md) to build a consumer workflow.
The consumer guide also covers explicit, live smoke diagnostics and interpreting
their factual reports; they are separate from the offline quickstart.
Contributors should start with the [development guide](docs/development.md).
The [architecture policy](docs/policy/architecture.md) defines the library
boundary and constraints that framework work must preserve.
