Hub-wide Ground Rules

summary ground rules are house rules that must hold for every prompt in your purple hub — tone of voice, brand voice, spelling conventions, legal constraints, topics to avoid instead of repeating them in every single prompt, you maintain them once centrally, and purple prompts automatically adds them to every request it sends to the language model configuring the ground rules ground rules are edited in 'purple prompts' ❭ 'settings' , in the ground rules text area only administrators can open this settings page the field is empty by default as long as it is empty, every prompt behaves exactly as it did before — nothing is added write the rules in whatever language fits your content most where the ground rules apply the rules are added directly in front of the instructions of the individual prompt, for every feature that runs a prompt prompts run from the purple prompts sidebar in the article view (see using purple prompts in the article view docid\ gk6a6pboxgznoblsocw7k ) the whole prompt sequence behind the finalize article button (see finalize article docid 2 bngepn8v16nhvnw7u5v ) the ai metadata suggestions for images in purple dam (see uploading media docid\ xcdxtroopsufsgyarvq1m ) prompts of the usage area external workflow , which external automations fetch from the hub an individual prompt still wins where it needs to the ground rules are handed to the model with the note that they apply unless the prompt's own instructions explicitly override them so a prompt that has to produce, say, an all lowercase value can still say so and will be followed keep them short the ground rules are sent along with every request, so they add to the execution time and api cost of every single prompt, and a very long rule set can crowd out the instructions of the prompt itself keep them to the few rules that genuinely have to hold everywhere, and leave everything task specific in the individual prompts example always address the reader formally ("sie"), never informally ("du") write product names exactly as they are spelled by the manufacturer never use exclamation marks do not mention competitors by name for more on phrasing instructions that language models follow reliably, see prompt writing best practices docid\ xeiyypznvocj5sc6azuu9
