description	PromptScript language expert for reading, writing, modifying, and troubleshooting .prs files. Use when working with PromptScript syntax, creating or editing .prs files, adding blocks like @identity, @standards, @restrictions, @shortcuts, @skills, or @agents, configuring promptscript.yaml, resolving compilation errors, understanding inheritance (@inherit) and composition (@use, @extend), or migrating AI instructions to PromptScript. Also use when asked about the 48 built-in compilation targets, including GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, Factory AI, and AGENTS.md-based platforms.

PromptScript Language Guide

PromptScript is a domain-specific language that compiles .prs files into native instruction formats for AI coding assistants (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, Factory AI, OpenCode, Gemini CLI). One source of truth, multiple outputs.

File Structure

A .prs file is made of blocks. Order doesn't matter except @meta should come first by convention.

# Comments start with #

@meta { ... }           # Required metadata
@inherit @path          # Single inheritance (optional)
@use @path [as alias]   # Imports/mixins (optional, multiple)

@identity { ... }       # AI persona
@context { ... }        # Project context
@standards { ... }      # Coding conventions
@restrictions { ... }   # Hard rules
@shortcuts { ... }      # Command aliases
@knowledge { ... }      # Reference documentation
@skills { ... }         # Reusable skill definitions
@agents { ... }         # Subagent definitions
@examples { ... }       # Few-shot input/output examples (syntax 1.2.0+)
@params { ... }         # Template parameters
@guards { ... }         # File globs and priorities
@local { ... }          # Private config (not committed)
@extend path { ... }    # Modify imported blocks
@custom-name { ... }    # Arbitrary named blocks

Content Types

PromptScript has three content types inside blocks:

Text Content

Use triple quotes (three double-quote characters) to wrap multiline text. Text is automatically dedented - leading whitespace from source indentation is stripped. Use for prose, markdown, or freeform content.

Example: @identity with a text block describing an AI persona starting with "You are..."

Object Content (key-value pairs)

@context {
  project: "My App"
  team: "Frontend"
  monorepo: {
    tool: "Nx"
    packageManager: "pnpm"
  }
}

Values can be strings (quoted or unquoted), numbers, booleans, nested objects, or arrays.

Array Content

@standards {
  code: [
    "Use strict TypeScript",
    "Named exports only"
  ]
}

@restrictions {
  - "Never use any type"
  - "Never commit secrets"
}

Mixed Content

Blocks can contain both object properties and text in the same block. Place the triple-quoted text block alongside key-value pairs.

Block Reference

@meta (required)

@meta {
  id: "project-id"        # Required: unique identifier
  syntax: "1.0.0"         # Required: syntax version (semver)
  org: "Company Name"     # Optional
  team: "Frontend"        # Optional
  tags: [react, ts]       # Optional
  params: {               # Optional: template parameters
    projectName: string
    port: number = 3000
    debug?: boolean
    framework: enum("react", "vue") = "react"
  }
}
