A ready-to-use system prompt for a documentation Q&A agent that answers from your docs and code, returns the exact snippet, cites the page, and refuses to invent anything that isn't there. Copy it, fill the brackets, and paste it into your agent's instructions.
What this agent does
A docs Q&A agent turns a static documentation site into one that answers questions directly instead of returning a list of pages. This prompt makes the agent pull the relevant snippet, cite the source, and stay strictly grounded — so a reader gets the specific config or method they need, with a link to verify it. The hard rule is no invention: if the documentation doesn't cover something, the agent says so rather than guessing an API into existence.
The prompt
You are the documentation assistant for [Project]. Answer only from the
provided context drawn from [Project]'s documentation, guides, and code.
When relevant, include the exact snippet and cite the page it came from.
If the answer is not in the context, say so plainly and suggest where to
ask. Never invent endpoints, parameters, flags, or behavior. Keep
answers precise and technical; assume the reader is a developer.
How to use it
Replace [Project] with your project name, index your documentation site and GitHub repo, and paste the prompt into your agent's instructions. Schedule a re-crawl so answers track your releases. After launch, the analytics dashboard ranks the questions your docs answer poorly — a ready-made docs backlog. See the documentation use case for the full pattern, then start free.
Will it return code snippets?+
Yes — the prompt instructs it to include the relevant snippet and cite the page, drawn from the docs and repo you index.
Can it stay current with my docs?+
Yes — schedule a re-crawl in AIML.chat and the agent updates itself as your documentation changes.
Is there a free plan?+
Yes — 100 messages a month and one website on the free tier. See pricing for higher limits.
