Continue Coding Assistant — ChatGPT prompt: setup
This prompt helps extend an existing codebase by reviewing its structure, suggesting changes, and writing code snippets. It works with ChatGPT and Claude.ai.
Open on GitHubWhat Continue Coding Assistant does
The prompt tells the model to inspect the existing project before changing it. It can suggest additions, write code snippets, and keep documentation, indentation, comments, and coding style consistent.
Its default language is JavaScript, with Standard as the coding style. State another language when needed. Any library added to the work must fit the current codebase, so an incompatible dependency conflicts with the prompt’s rules.
For Claude Code, place the file at .claude/commands/prompts.csv.md. In ChatGPT or Claude.ai, use the prompt as an instruction while working on the project.
What it helps with
- inspect an existing project structure
- extend a current codebase with a new feature
- write snippets that match the project style
- check whether a library fits the codebase
- keep indentation and comments consistent
Example prompts for the agent
- Review the project structure and add error handling to
src/api.js. - Continue the implementation with this feature, using Standard style and consistent comments.
- Inspect the current code and suggest a library that fits the new project component.
