- Full prompt management UI: list, detail, override, and version
management for AI prompts defined with `prompts.define()`
- Rich AI span inspectors for all AI SDK operations with token usage,
messages, and prompt context
- Real-time generation tracking with live polling and filtering
## Prompt management
Define prompts in your code with `prompts.define()`, then manage
versions and overrides from the dashboard without redeploying:
```typescript
import { task, prompts } from "@trigger.dev/sdk";
import { generateText } from "ai";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { z } from "zod";
const supportPrompt = prompts.define({
id: "customer-support",
model: "gpt-4o",
variables: z.object({
customerName: z.string(),
plan: z.string(),
issue: z.string(),
}),
content: `You are a support agent for Acme SaaS.
Customer: {{customerName}} ({{plan}} plan)
Issue: {{issue}}
Respond with empathy and precision.`,
});
export const supportTask = task({
id: "handle-support",
run: async (payload) => {
const resolved = await supportPrompt.resolve({
customerName: payload.name,
plan: payload.plan,
issue: payload.issue,
});
const result = await generateText({
model: openai(resolved.model ?? "gpt-4o"),
system: resolved.text,
prompt: payload.issue,
...resolved.toAISDKTelemetry(),
});
return { response: result.text };
},
});
```
The prompts list page shows each prompt with its current version, model,
override status, and a usage sparkline over the last 24 hours.
From the prompt detail page you can:
- **Create overrides** to change the prompt template or model without
redeploying. Overrides take priority over the deployed version when
`prompt.resolve()` is called.
- **Promote** any code-deployed version to be the current version
- **Browse generations** across all versions with infinite scroll and
live polling for new results
- **Filter** by version, model, operation type, and provider
- **View metrics** (total generations, avg tokens, avg cost, latency)
broken down by version
## AI span inspectors
Every AI SDK operation now gets a custom inspector in the run trace
view:
- **`ai.generateText` / `ai.streamText`** — Shows model, token usage,
cost, the full message thread (system prompt, user message, assistant
response), and linked prompt details
- **`ai.generateObject` / `ai.streamObject`** — Same as above plus the
JSON schema and structured output
- **`ai.toolCall`** — Shows tool name, call ID, and input arguments
- **`ai.embed`** — Shows model and the text being embedded
For generation spans linked to a prompt, a "Prompt" tab shows the prompt
metadata, the input variables passed to `resolve()`, and the template
content from the prompt version.
All AI span inspectors include a compact timestamp and duration header.
## Other improvements
- Resizable panel sizes now persist across page refreshes (patched
`@window-splitter/state` to fix snapshot restoration)
- Run page panels also persist their sizes
- Fixed `<div>` inside `<p>` DOM nesting warnings in span titles and
chat messages
- Added Operations and Providers filters to the AI metrics dashboard

Official TypeScript SDK for Trigger.dev
The Trigger.dev SDK is a TypeScript/JavaScript library that allows you to define and trigger tasks in your projects.
About Trigger.dev
Trigger.dev is an open source platform for building and deploying fully-managed AI agents and workflows. Write workflows in normal async TypeScript for everything from simple tasks to long-running AI agents, heavy media processing, complex real-time systems and more. Complete with full observability, managed queues, and elastic infrastructure which handles the horizontal scaling.
Core features
- Task creation and execution
- CLI for development and deployment
- Build system with extensions
- Management API for runs, schedules, and environment variables
Key Components:
- Tasks: Background jobs written in TypeScript/JavaScript
- CLI: Commands for login, init, dev, deploy
- Build Extensions: Customize builds (Prisma, Python, FFmpeg, etc.)
- Management API: Programmatic control over runs and resources
Getting started
There are two ways to get started:
- Create an account in our web app, create a new project and follow the instructions in the onboarding. Build and deploy your first task in minutes.
- Manual setup in your existing project.
