Tagging Taxonomy

Tags and folders serve different purposes. This taxonomy ensures tags add cross-cutting searchability (technique, status, model) rather than duplicating the folder hierarchy.

Prompt
Create a tagging taxonomy for a prompt library. Tags should be orthogonal to the folder structure (folders = what domain, tags = cross-cutting attributes).

Context: {{context}}

Design tags in these categories:

1. **Technique tags**: The prompting method used (e.g., few-shot, chain-of-thought, zero-shot, role-play, system-prompt)
2. **Status tags**: The prompt's lifecycle stage (e.g., draft, tested, production, deprecated)
3. **Model tags**: Which AI model it's optimized for (e.g., gpt-4, claude, gemini)
4. **Complexity tags**: How complex the prompt is (e.g., simple, intermediate, advanced)
5. **Output tags**: What the prompt produces (e.g., text, code, json, table, analysis)

For each category:
- List 4-6 recommended tags
- Explain when to use each one
- Note which tags should be required vs. optional
