It appears that the Github prompt YAML format is the closest that we have to a standard prompt format.

Furthermore, adopting this format will bring the following benefits.

• Using Github new Models feature to optimize prompts.
• Let the user to save prompt with its particular optimized model and parameters.
• Use Github hosted models.
• Integrate with other tools that also use this standard.
• Github is heavily investing in this, adopting it early can bring more visibility to this project.

How to do it.

1. We should be able import these yaml files, we should also be able to update its parameters and later being able to save it.
2. We should change the UI to being able to import/export these yaml in the server side.
3. The app should be able to run without these yaml files.
4. The actual base prompts content can remain in txt files, their content are copied to the yaml if the user wants to save its "prompt" (with the choice of model and params).
5. When the user loads a yaml file we ignore the existing txt base prompts.
