name: promptify description: Optimize prompts for clarity and effectiveness. Use when user says "improve this prompt", "optimize my prompt", "make this clearer", or provides vague/unstructured prompts. Intelligently routes to sub-agents for codebase research, clarifying questions, or web search as needed. metadata: {"moltbot":{"emoji":"✨"}}

Prompt Optimizer

Transform prompts into clear, effective ones. Model-agnostic.

Modifiers (parse from ARGUMENTS)

• +ask → Force clarifying questions
• +deep → Force codebase exploration
• +web → Force web search

No modifiers? Auto-detect what's needed.

Auto-Detection Triggers

Trigger	Signals
codebase-researcher	"this project", "our API", specific files/functions, "integrate", "extend", "refactor"
clarifier	Ambiguous ("make it better"), multiple interpretations, missing constraints, vague pronouns
web-researcher	"best practices", "latest", external APIs/libraries, framework patterns, year references

Agent Dispatch

When agents needed:

1. Announce which and why
2. Run in parallel via Task tool (agents/ directory)
3. Synthesize findings
4. Optimize with gathered context

Core Contract (every prompt needs all four)

Element	If Missing
Role	Add persona with expertise
Task	Make action specific
Constraints	Infer from context
Output	Specify format/structure

Process

1. If image: Analyze, incorporate context
2. Detect type: coding/writing/analysis/creative/data
3. Convert output→process: "Write X" → "Analyze → Plan → Implement → Validate"
4. Strip fluff: "please", "I want you to", filler, apologies
5. Apply contract: Verify all 4 elements
6. Add structure: XML tags for complex prompts

Type Focus

• Coding: Specs, edge cases, framework
• Writing: Tone, audience, length
• Analysis: Criteria, depth
• Creative: Constraints, novelty
• Data: I/O format, edge cases

Output

1. Optimized prompt in code block
2. echo 'PROMPT' | pbcopy
3. 2-3 sentence explanation
