The COMPEL Glossary Graph visualizes relationships between framework terminology, showing how concepts interconnect across domains, stages, and pillars. Term nodes cluster by pillar affiliation while cross-references reveal semantic dependencies — for example, how risk appetite connects to control effectiveness, model governance, and assurance requirements. This network representation helps practitioners navigate the framework vocabulary and understand that COMPEL terminology forms a coherent conceptual system rather than isolated definitions.
COMPEL Glossary / prompt-architecture
Prompt architecture
The production-grade concerns around prompts as architectural artefacts — template assembly, versioning, registry management, injection defense, and structured-output schemas.
What this means in practice
Distinct from prompt engineering (craft-level) because prompt architecture governs how prompts behave at scale, across models and tenants, over time.
Synonyms
production prompt architecture , prompt engineering at architecture level

- Prompt template — A versioned, parameterized representation of a prompt — with placeholders for user input, retrieved context, and dynamic state — enabling reuse, testing, and audit.
- Structured output — Output formatted to match a declared schema — JSON with a JSON Schema, function-call arguments, or grammar-constrained text — rather than free text.
