Open Prompts is an open-source platform for discovering, sharing, and reusing AI image prompt templates. Browse a curated gallery, open any template in a focused generation studio, and produce images with pluggable providers—without leaving one workflow.

Most teams collect prompts in docs, threads, or spreadsheets. Open Prompts turns them into structured templates with preview images, tags, models, and visibility (public, private, or draft). Users can:
- Explore community and catalog prompts in a gallery
- Generate from a template in one click
- Submit new public prompts for review, or create private templates from the account dashboard
- Sign in with GitHub, Google, or email (admin credentials for operators)
The app is built with Next.js, next-intl (English, Chinese, Japanese), NextAuth, and Postgres (e.g. Supabase). Image generation is routed through server APIs with Atlas Cloud today (Replicate is planned, not yet supported), plus a test mode for development without paid API calls.
| Area | What you get |
|---|---|
| Gallery | Search and filter templates by model and tags; open detail view and jump to Create with the prompt pre-filled. |
| Create studio | Template carousel, prompt editor, aspect ratio / quality / batch controls, provider selection, and session history (browser localStorage). |
| Submit flow | Single-page wizard to publish prompts to the gallery (public → review queue) or save private templates via ?visibility=private. |
| Account dashboard | My templates, admin review queue (approve / reject), credits and subscription placeholders. |
| Auth | GitHub & Google OAuth; email/password for configured admin users; no public self-registration UI. |
| Admin moderation | Review queue over all templates; status and visibility aligned with gallery rules. |
| X import | Paste a public tweet URL on Submit to pre-fill title, description, prompt, and images. |
| i18n | Locale routes: / (en), /zh, /ja for main pages; shared site header and footer. |
| Self-host | Apache 2.0; env-driven providers and database; deploy to Vercel or any Node host. |
A few templates from the built-in gallery (community / X). Try them on open-prompts.com or run locally and click Generate in the gallery.

Apply migrations (Supabase SQL editor or psql), then seed prompts if needed:
# Optional: push schema via Drizzle
npm run db:push
# Seed gallery prompts from bundled dataset
npm run seed:prompts
# Ensure admin user password in DB (if login fails)
npm run seed:adminMigration SQL also lives under supabase/migrations/ and scripts/apply-owner-visibility-migration.sql.
npm run devOpen http://localhost:3000 (default port 3000).
- Import the repo on Vercel (Next.js preset,
npm run build). - Add the same env vars as step 2; set
NEXTAUTH_URLandNEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_URLtohttps://your-app.vercel.app. - Run
supabase/migrations/on your Supabase DB, thennpm run seed:promptsandnpm run seed:adminlocally with thatDATABASE_URL. - Register OAuth callbacks:
…/api/auth/callback/githuband…/api/auth/callback/googleon your Vercel domain.
Redeploy after env changes. If admin login fails, run npm run seed:admin against production DATABASE_URL.
| Provider | Status | Configuration |
|---|---|---|
| Atlas Cloud | Supported | ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY, ATLASCLOUD_BASE_URL |
| Replicate | Planned (not supported) | Env keys exist in .env.example for future use; do not set DEFAULT_IMAGE_PROVIDER=replicate yet |
| Test mode | Dev / demo | USE_TEST_MODE=true, TEST_IMAGE_URL |
On the Create page, users can optionally override the API key in the browser (localStorage); prefer server-side keys in production.

Issues and pull requests are welcome. For large changes, open an issue first to discuss direction.
Open Prompts is meant to be a practical hub for reusable image prompts: discover what works in the gallery, generate with your chosen model, and contribute templates back to the community—while keeping private drafts and a moderation path for public listings. Fork it, deploy on Vercel with Supabase, wire your preferred image API, and adapt the workflow to your team under Apache 2.0.
If this project helps your workflow, consider starring the repo and sharing feedback in GitHub Issues.
