import { getPrompt } from 'wobble-bibble';

// Get the hadith prompt (automatically stacked with master)
const hadithPrompt = getPrompt('hadith');

console.log(hadithPrompt);
// {
//   id: 'hadith',
//   name: 'Hadith',
//   content: '... [master prompt]\n... [hadith addon]',
//   isMaster: false
// }

// Use with an LLM
const response = await llm.chat({
  system: hadithPrompt.content,
  messages: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'P1: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم...'
  }]
});

​
Errors

Throws an Error if the prompt ID is not found: 
try {
  const prompt = getPrompt('invalid_id' as PromptId);
} catch (error) {
  console.error(error.message); // "Prompt not found: invalid_id"
}
The PromptId type is strongly typed based on available prompt files. TypeScript will provide autocomplete and catch invalid IDs at compile time.
