/ quick answer

Prompt versioning stores each prompt as a versioned artifact (git, PromptLayer, LangSmith) with evals attached. Enables safe iteration and rollback when quality regresses. Treating prompts as code: tracked, diffed, rollback-able.

Treating prompts as code: tracked, diffed, rollback-able. Prompt versioning stores each prompt as a versioned artifact (git, PromptLayer, LangSmith) with evals attached. Enables safe iteration and rollback when quality regresses. In practice: prompt v3 dropped answer accuracy by 4% in evals — rollback to v2.
