Show HN: Promptctl – Git for your AI prompts

Promptctl is a CLI tool that brings version control to AI prompts, allowing users to track, manage, and collaborate on prompts similarly to how Git handles code. It enables prompt versioning, diffing, branching, and sharing across projects.

Background

- Promptctl is a command-line tool that applies version control (like Git) to AI prompts, letting users track changes, roll back to previous versions, and collaborate on prompt development. - As AI coding assistants (e.g., Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot) become widely used, prompts — the instructions given to the model — have become valuable assets that teams iterate on like code, but lacked proper tooling for management. - The project is hosted on GitHub by naya-ai, built in Rust, and was shared on Hacker News (Show HN) as an open-source release for developers who want to maintain prompt history, diff changes, and manage prompt libraries systematically.
