Search prompts, skills and workflows that turn ideas into usable work
HackTheSim started as a prompt hub. It is now a practical AI workflow library for prompts, skills, agents, AI teams, workflow packs, context files, quality gates and automation-ready systems.
Learn when to use a prompt, skill, agent, AI team, workflow pack, context file, quality gate or automation bridge.
Built for real work
What is HackTheSim?
A no-nonsense AI workflow hub built to help you get from vague idea to useful output faster, with less rework and less generic AI sludge.
- Prompts help with one clear output
- Skills make useful AI behaviours repeatable
- Context files stop the AI guessing your world
- Quality gates check output before it is trusted
- Workflow packs connect the pieces into an end-to-end route
Start with the lane that fits you
Keep it simple. Start with a prompt. Move up to skills, gates, packs or automation only when the work repeats or the risk rises.
I just need a better answer now
Use prompts for drafts, rewrites, summaries, plans and quick thinking.
- Email rewrites
- LinkedIn posts
- Meeting notes
I keep doing the same AI task
Use skills when the same behaviour, format and checks need to happen every time.
- Code review
- Status updates
- Decision briefs
I need the full route, not just a prompt
Use workflow packs, context files and AI teams to move from input to outcome.
- Workflow packs
- Context files
- AI teams
I need to check or automate the output
Use quality gates and automation bridge when the output affects real work.
- Quality gates
- Human approval
- Automation-ready steps

What’s new
Reusable behaviours with inputs, rules, outputs and tests.
Role-based AI setups for repeatable tasks and handoffs.
Bundled routes for bigger outcomes, not just one-off prompts.
