Generic system-prompt install

For any LLM that takes a system prompt — GPT-4/5, Gemini, Llama, Mistral, local models via Ollama / LM Studio / vLLM, or any agent framework that exposes a system-prompt field.

Install

Paste the contents of system-prompt.md from this folder into:

  • ChatGPT custom GPT instructions
  • Claude.ai project custom instructions
  • OpenAI API system role message
  • Anthropic API system parameter
  • Gemini API systemInstruction
  • Ollama Modelfile SYSTEM directive
  • LangChain SystemMessage
  • AutoGen, CrewAI, or any agent framework's system prompt field

Verify

After the model finishes a task, type "did you do your best?" The model should run the audit protocol.

Caveat

Adherence to long system prompts varies by model. In rough order of reliability:

  1. Claude 3.5 Sonnet and above (highest adherence)
  2. GPT-4o / GPT-5
  3. Gemini 1.5 Pro / 2.0
  4. Llama 3.1 70B+
  5. Smaller local models (often need the trigger phrase made more explicit)
