Practical Notes
- Setup time ~10 minutes (npm install + one search + one install)
- README lists 13 output formats (e.g., cursor/claude/continue/windsurf/copilot/kiro/gemini/opencode/codex/...)
- GitHub stars + forks (verified): see Source & Thanks
PRPM becomes valuable when you treat prompts/rules as dependencies:
- Put a small
prpminstall script in your repo bootstrap. - Use non-interactive search flags for agent automation (
--no-interactive). - Prefer collections for onboarding: a single command can roll out a consistent baseline across the team.
For safety, review installed files the same way you review code: keep diffs, pin versions (if your workflow supports it), and avoid installing unknown packages directly into production repos.
FAQ
Q: Why not copy-paste rules manually? A: Manual drift is guaranteed. A registry + install step keeps teams consistent across editors.
Q: How do agents avoid interactive prompts?
A: The README explicitly recommends --no-interactive for search to avoid pagination prompts.
Q: What is the safest first use?
A: Search and read info first, then install one small package into a disposable repo to review output paths.
