Prompt Chaining (Simple Guide) ​

Prompt chaining lets you reuse prompts inside other prompts. This is useful when you want multi-step workflows like extract -> summarize -> write.

How it works (simple) ​

  • You save each step as its own prompt.
  • You insert a reference to that prompt in another prompt.
  • Veriprompt resolves those references when you run it.

Quick example ​

Write a main prompt like this:

Create a short brief using this data:
[project-summary]

When saved, Veriprompt turns it into a reference behind the scenes and resolves it during execution.

Access rules ​

  • You can only reference prompts you have access to.
  • Project prompts can reference project prompts.
  • Company prompts can be shared more widely.

Best practices ​

  • Keep each prompt focused on one step.
  • Use short names so references are easy to read.
  • Test chains before using them in production.
