Prompt Management — AI Glossary

Versioning, testing, and deploying prompts as first-class software artifacts with change history and staged rollouts.

Overview

Prompt management tools (LangSmith Hub, Braintrust, Langfuse) store prompt templates with version history, attach eval results, and enable A/B testing between prompt versions before production rollout.

Commonly confused with

Prompt engineering is writing the prompt; prompt management is the operational layer around it — versioning, staged rollout, and knowing which version produced which result. The reason to separate them is that a prompt edit is a production change with no code diff, so without this layer a quality regression has no bisect path and no rollback.
