Query Q001

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

  • Subject: Published AI/LLM system prompts implementing comprehensive research methodology frameworks
  • Scope: Publicly available prompts (GitHub, academic papers, blog posts, prompt libraries) that attempt to encode a full analytical rigor framework — not narrow single-task prompts (e.g., abstract screening only) but prompts that govern an AI agent's entire research workflow including evidence assessment, bias checking, confidence calibration, and synthesis
  • Evidence basis: Published artifacts (code repositories, academic papers, blog posts with source code, prompt libraries) containing the actual prompt text or system instructions

Ambiguities Identified

  1. "Complete" vs. "comprehensive" — Where is the threshold between a multi-step prompt and a "full framework"? Clarified: must address at least 3 of: search methodology, evidence scoring, bias assessment, confidence calibration, synthesis, self-audit.
  2. "Usable" — Does this mean production-ready or proof-of-concept? Clarified: either qualifies, but must be a concrete prompt artifact, not a theoretical proposal.
  3. "System prompt" vs. "prompt chain" — Some implementations use multi-turn prompt chains rather than a single system prompt. Clarified: both qualify.

Sub-Questions

  1. Do any published GitHub repositories contain system prompts implementing analytical rigor frameworks for research?
  2. Have any academic papers published the actual prompt text used to implement systematic review methodologies?
  3. Do prompt libraries (e.g., awesome-prompts collections) contain research-methodology prompts?
  4. Has anyone implemented ICD 203 analytic standards as an LLM system prompt?
