Introducing Prompt Chaining: Automate Your AI Workflows

Introducing Prompt Chaining: Automate Your AI Workflows

AI Workspace just got a massive upgrade. We're thrilled to introduce Prompt Chaining—a powerful new way to orchestrate complex interactions with ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok.

Instead of manually copying and pasting or typing follow-up prompts, you can now define a sequence of steps that execute one after another. It turns your AI from a chatbot into a workflow automation tool.

What is Prompt Chaining?

Imagine you have a workflow you do every day. Maybe it's writing a blog post, debugging code, or analyzing data. Usually, this involves multiple turns:

  1. "Write an outline for X."
  2. (Wait for answer) -> "Great, now write the introduction."
  3. (Wait for answer) -> "Now write the body paragraphs."

With Prompt Chaining, you define these steps once. When you run the chain, AI Workspace handles the flow for you.

A Visual Tour

Let's look at how it works. In your prompt library, chains are now clearly distinguishable from regular prompts. They have a dedicated "Prompt Chain" badge and show the number of steps involved.

Building Your Chain

Creating a chain is intuitive. In the editor, you can add as many steps as you need. Each step can reference the output of previous steps or use global variables.

Editing a Prompt Chain with multiple steps

Smart Variables

One of the most powerful features is Smart Variables. Use {{variables}} across your entire chain. AI Workspace detects them and asks you to fill them in once before the chain starts. No more hunting for placeholders in every single prompt.

Flexible Execution

Need to restart from the middle? Or just want to test the last part of your chain? You can easily choose which step to start execution from using the Run dialog.

Selecting which step to start from

Once started, a floating window keeps you updated on the progress, so you can see exactly which step is currently running.

Real-World Examples

✍️ The Content Creator

The Old Way: Ask for 10 ideas. Pick one. Ask for an outline. Ask for the draft. Ask for a tweet thread.

The Chain Way: Create a "Blog Post Generator" chain. Enter the topic once, and watch the AI build your entire content package.

💻 The Developer

Scenario: Documenting legacy code.

The Chain Way: Step 1: Analyze code. Step 2: Generate JSDoc. Step 3: Write README. Step 4: Generate unit tests.

Why it's a Game Changer

Prompt Chaining captures your best prompting strategies into reusable workflows. It ensures consistency, saves time, and reduces the cognitive load of managing complex AI interactions.
