Host a Prompt
Have an idea for a prompt? Here is how to host one!
If you think the Collabathon should include a new prompt, you can propose one and even host it. Only do so if you have domain expertise and are able to provide all the required resources. We are growing the Open Climate Platform one event at the time, one day at a time. The Platform is a complex puzzle and existing initiatives focus on different pieces.
Do you have an idea of how to further improve the Open Climate Platform? Are there links and functionalities missing? Are you working on a project or in an organization that might provide such a piece? Do you have an entirely new idea that needs background research and framework building? Become a prompt host or assign someone else to this role.
Nodes are best suited to host prompts, because of their ability to provide resources and to leverage the existing community formed around them.
-
- 1.
- 2. Once you get a green light, you can add yourself as a writer here on GitBook; you will find the link to join and contribute in the ‘Welcome’ section on the side navigation.
- 3. Create a prompt page in the appropriate category here on GitBook in the PROMPT section. Load all the information trying to follow the template used in other prompts, and borrowing from the suggested structure below.
- 4. Created a Discord channel for your prompt, or ask an admin within Discord to that for you. Then link that discord channel in your GitBook page
- 5. Then we need to get you set up into the CoMakery space, so you can manage the tasks that are associated with your prompts, and see which participants are interested in your prompt. There are multiple functionalities you can do within CoMakery, such as assign reward tokens once participants accomplish a specific tasks. Once you are logged into CoMakery, we will need to create a 'Project page' for you prompt. To do this, write Noah Thorpe or Ryan Morris on Discord requesting this page creation
- 6. Once your Project page is set up in CoMakery, and you've been assigned as Project leader, you need to load the individual tasks that are associated to your prompt, so that participants can submit their work associated to those tasks
- 7. Coordinate with participant giving them support, and have fun!
