+# Drafting InnerSource Pattern with AI
+
+Our AI friends can help us to brainstorm and write new InnerSource patterns.
+Usual precaution should apply, as always with AI ;)
+
+## How to use this
+
+- Paste the below prompt into ChatGPT or your AI agent of choice.
+- Add a description of the **problem** you are looking to solve, as well as the intended **solution** (if you already have one in mind).
+- Let AI do its magic.
+- Then populate the missing sections and adapt the pattern manually as you see fit.
+- Finally, submit your work as a pull request to our repo.
+
+You might also want to instruct the AI to return the answer as a markdown file, that you can more easily copy and paste into a GitHub Pull Request.
+
+## Prompt
+
+```
+I want to write a new InnerSource Pattern.
+
+The pattern needs to follow this template:
+https://github.com/InnerSourceCommons/InnerSourcePatterns/blob/main/meta/pattern-template.md
+
+Further instructions:
+- Each headline in the template starts a new section, with a distinct semantic purpose.
+- Therefore the names of the headlines should be kept as they are. The headlines in the final pattern should appear in the same order as in the template.
+- The value of these sections should be "TBD": Known Instances, Author
+- The value of the Status section should be "Initial".
+- These sections should be removed: Acknowledgments
+- The section "Related Patterns" should contain markdown links to relevant patterns from https://patterns.innersourcecommons.org, including an explanation of how these patterns relate to this new pattern.
+- The word "(optional)" should be removed from the headlines.
+
+This is the concept that I want to explain in the pattern:
+
+<describe the problem and intended solution here in rough terms>
+```
