## Prompt files

Prompt Files in GitHub Copilot Chat are designed to streamline workflows, enhance collaboration, and bring domain-specific expertise to you and your team's fingertips. With reusable and shareable prompts, you can save time, maintain consistency, and tackle complex tasks with ease. While the existing file-based custom instructions help to add codebase-wide context to each AI workflow, developers can add specific prompts as they need them, which makes them scale to the complexity of larger multi-faceted codebases.

While the existing file-based [custom instructions](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/copilot-customization) help to add codebase-wide context to each AI workflow, with prompt files, developers can add specific prompts as they need them. This is really helpful for things like:

**Code Generation:** Create reusable prompts for components, tests, or migrations (e.g., React forms, API mocks).
108+

**Team Collaboration:** Document patterns and guidelines with references to specs and documentation.

Vision for Copilot allows you to include images in your prompts. This unlocks an entirely new way of interacting with Copilot. You can imagine taking a screenshot of a layout that isn't quite right and including that in your prompt for Copilot to fix a stylesheet. Or even having Copilot create an entire UI based on a mockup.\
