What it does
JeffreysPrompts collects curated prompts for Claude Code, Codex CLI and Gemini CLI, such as Idea Wizard, README Reviser and Robot-Mode Maker. Each prompt comes with notes on when to apply it and examples. The `jfp` command searches prompts by text, shows one, copies it to the clipboard and exports to Markdown or a Claude Code `SKILL.md` bundle. Output is available as JSON, and `jfp serve` exposes prompts to an agent as MCP resources and tools. The same prompts open in the jeffreysprompts.com web app.
Who it is for. Programmers who write agent prompts daily and want ready wording from the terminal instead of bookmarks.
Good fit when
- The agent gives weak ideas and you want a prompt that makes it draft thirty options first and pick five.
- The README lags behind the code and one ready prompt should refresh it.
- A working prompt should land in the project as a `SKILL.md`.
- An agent needs access to a prompt library over MCP.
Not a fit when
- You need full skills with install and updates: a separate project, Jeffrey's Skills.md (`jsm`), handles those.
- The catalog must work fully offline without touching the registry.
- The task is narrow and a general prompt would be rewritten from scratch.

The core set is a selection from the author's post series, not a neutral library. A large part of the repository is a web app with ratings, referrals and support pages; the CLI is one of four layers and the Rust port is still in progress. Saved collections, notes and sync belong to the paid Pro tier. The license is MIT with an OpenAI and Anthropic rider, so read its terms before commercial use. The installer runs a script fetched from the network.
How to disable. Remove the `jfp` binary and the registry cache. If you registered `jfp serve` as MCP, delete that entry from the agent configuration.
FAQ
How do I find a prompt in the terminal?
Run `jfp search "brainstorm"` for fuzzy search or `jfp i` for interactive mode, then open the prompt with `jfp show idea-wizard`.
How do I copy a prompt to the clipboard?
The `jfp copy idea-wizard` command puts the text in the clipboard. For a file, use the Markdown export.
What does agent mode give me?
Every command accepts `--json`, and piped output switches to JSON on its own. Running with no arguments prints a short help of about a hundred tokens.
Where do skills live?
A separate tool, `jsm` from Jeffrey's Skills.md, manages them. JeffreysPrompts covers prompts and Markdown export.
Can `jfp` run as an MCP server?
Yes, `jfp serve` exposes prompts to an agent as MCP resources and tools. Add the entry to the client configuration by hand.

README in short
The project has a web app, the `jfp` CLI, a shared package with the prompt registry and a Rust port. Prompts can be copied, exported to Markdown or fetched as `SKILL.md`.
