Q001 — Query Definition¶
Query as Received¶
Has anyone published a complete, usable AI/LLM system prompt that implements a full analytical rigor framework for research? Search for published prompts that go beyond narrow tasks (abstract screening, checklist verification) and attempt to make an AI agent operate under a comprehensive research methodology. Include prompts implementing any of: ICD 203, GRADE, PRISMA, Cochrane, IPCC, or any systematic review framework.
Query as Clarified¶
This query asks whether any publicly available system prompt exists that:
- Is complete and usable — not a theoretical description but an actual prompt that can be deployed
- Implements a full analytical rigor framework — not a single technique (e.g., screening only) but a comprehensive methodology covering multiple phases of research
- Goes beyond narrow tasks — abstract screening, checklist verification, or single-step data extraction do not qualify
- Targets comprehensive research methodology — covering hypothesis generation, evidence evaluation, source scoring, bias assessment, uncertainty quantification, or similar multi-step analytical processes
- Implements named frameworks — ICD 203, GRADE, PRISMA, Cochrane, IPCC, or comparable systematic review methodologies
Key vocabulary mapping: "system prompt" includes system instructions, meta-prompts, agent configurations, custom GPT instructions, and published prompt templates. "Full analytical rigor framework" means multiple interconnected analytical standards, not isolated techniques.
Scope: Published prompts in academic papers, GitHub repositories, blog posts, prompt libraries, custom GPT configurations, and leaked commercial system prompts. Time period: 2020-2026.
BLUF¶
Very unlikely (05-20%) that a complete, published system prompt implementing a full analytical rigor framework for research exists. Extensive search found numerous narrow-task prompts (screening, extraction, checklist verification) and several partial implementations of structured analytic techniques, but no published prompt that systematically implements a comprehensive research methodology such as ICD 203, GRADE, PRISMA, Cochrane, or IPCC as an integrated analytical framework.
Scope¶
| Dimension | Boundary |
|---|---|
| Time period | 2020-2026 |
| Geography | Global (English-language sources) |
| Source types | Academic papers, preprints, GitHub repos, blog posts, prompt libraries, leaked prompts |
| Inclusion criteria | Published, complete system prompts implementing multi-step analytical methodology |
| Exclusion criteria | Narrow single-task prompts; theoretical discussions without published prompts; proprietary unpublished prompts |
Assessment Summary¶
The search identified a spectrum of implementations ranging from minimal (Perplexity, OpenAI Deep Research — no analytical framework in prompt) through partial (sroberts LLM-SATs implementing 3 of 66 structured analytic techniques; Plessas ACH GPT implementing one technique) to comprehensive-but-not-prompt-based (Agent Laboratory, AI-Researcher — full research pipelines implemented in code rather than prompts). No published prompt was found that implements a complete analytical rigor framework as a system prompt.
