# Concepts

**2.1 Creating and Managing Prompts**

RagaAI Catalyst offers a comprehensive Prompt Management System (PMS) that functions like a CMS but specifically for your LLM prompts. Here’s how to get started:

1. **Access the Playground**:
   * From the Catalyst dashboard, navigate to the "Prompt Playground" section.
2. **Create a New Prompt**:
   * Click the `New Prompt` button.
   * Name your prompt descriptively to reflect its purpose or use case.
3. **Craft Your Prompt**:
   * Use the integrated editor with syntax highlighting to write your prompt.
   * Incorporate variables with Jinja templating for dynamic content generation.
4. **Test Prompt**:
   * Run your prompt directly in the Playground to see real-time outputs.
   * Iterate based on the results to refine your prompt.
5. **Save and Version**:
   * Commit your prompt with a detailed message describing any changes.
   * Version control allows you to track improvements and revert if necessary.
6. **Organize Prompts**:
   * Use folders within the PMS to keep your prompts structured and accessible.

**2.2 Prompt Versioning**

Version control in RagaAI Catalyst ensures that you can track and manage the evolution of your prompts. This feature is essential for maintaining high quality and supporting collaborative development.

1. **Automatic Version Assignment**:
   * Each prompt is auto-assigned a version number.
2. **Version History**:
   * Access a complete log of all changes, including commit messages and timestamps.
   * Revert to previous versions if needed.
3. **Set Default Versions**:
   * Designate a default version for each prompt, simplifying deployment and testing.

**2.3 Deleting Prompts**

To keep your workspace clean, RagaAI Catalyst allows you to delete prompts when they are no longer needed.

1. **Locate the Prompt**:
   * In the Playground sidebar, find the prompt you want to delete.
2. **Delete**:
   * Click the three dots (⋮) next to the prompt and select `Delete`.
   * Be aware this action deletes the entire prompt slug, including all versions.
