New CLI tool 'prompt-diff' helps catch LLM prompt regressions

A new command-line interface tool called prompt-diff has been developed to help developers catch regressions in LLM prompts before deployment. This zero-dependency tool, written in Node.js, compares a baseline set of prompt outputs against a candidate set, highlighting differences and providing a pass/fail report. It supports various checks like containment, regex matching, and JSON validation, and can integrate with CI/CD pipelines via GitHub Actions. AI
