Users often need to craft effective prompts for different tasks (code review, writing, analysis, etc.) but lack a centralized, easy-to-access collection of proven prompts. Currently, users must search the web or rely on external resources like the Awesome ChatGPT Prompts repo.
Proposed Solution
Add a built-in Prompt Library feature in Open WebUI that:
Pre-built Prompt Templates: Include a curated collection of common prompts organized by category (coding, writing, analysis, creative, etc.)
User-Created Prompts: Allow users to save their own custom prompts
Community Sharing: Enable users to share prompts with the community (like Open WebUI's character system)
Quick Insert: Support /prompt command to quickly search and insert prompts into chat
Use Cases
New users can discover effective prompting techniques
Teams can share organization-specific prompts
Power users can build personal prompt collections
Implementation Suggestions
Store prompts in a local JSON/SQLite database
Support categories and tags
Add search functionality
Import/export capability for prompt collections
Optional sync with community prompts (similar to how characters work)
