Discover the pre-built prompts that supercharge your agents.
NTM ships with a command palette - a collection of battle-tested prompts for common development tasks.
These aren't just prompts. They're carefully crafted instructions that get the best results from coding agents.
ntm palette
This opens an interactive browser of all available prompts.
Select a command to preview
Use arrow keys or click to browse
The prompts are organized into categories:
ntm palettentm send or paste directly# One-off prompt to every agent in the sessionntm send myproject "Review the changes in src/ for edge cases"# A built-in prompt template (see `ntm template list`)ntm send myproject -t code_review --file src/main.go
The palette itself is interactive-only (no --send flag). ntm send is the non-interactive sender: it targets all agents by default, or use --cc, --cod, --agy, or --pane=N to pick recipients.
Here are a few examples from the palette:
Review this code with an emphasis on: 1. Security vulnerabilities 2. Performance issues 3. Code readability 4. Edge cases not handled For each issue, provide: - The specific problem - Why it matters - A suggested fix
Analyze the architecture of this codebase: 1. Identify the main components 2. Map the data flow 3. Note any anti-patterns 4. Suggest improvements Create a simple diagram if helpful.
You can add your own prompts:
