What is System Prompt?
The core instructions given to an LLM to define its personality, boundaries, and goals. Botcadence teams apply this in production with Chat Agents.
Deep Dive
The system prompt acts as the 'identity' of your AI agent. It tells the agent to be 'professional yet friendly,' defines its specific knowledge domain, and sets 'guardrails' to prevent it from discussing off-topic or sensitive subjects. Treat System Prompt as an operating practice: start narrow, measure outcomes, and only then broaden intents or channels. See Chat Agents. Version prompt guardrails and reject out-of-policy tool use before broader agent access.
