## Statements (checkable)
0. On June 3, 2026 OpenAI notified developers using reusable prompts in the dashboard and API that reusable prompt objects are being deprecated; prompt creation is de-emphasized in the platform.  [✓0 ✗0]
1. The v1/prompts API and reusable prompt objects are scheduled to shut down on Nov 30, 2026.  [✓0 ✗0]
2. OpenAI's migration guide says to move the prompt content out of the managed prompt object (e.g. responses.create with prompt: {id: 'pmpt_...', version, variables}) into application code.  [✓0 ✗0]

## Fix
```text
Before Nov 30, 2026: export each pmpt_ prompt's text/variables into your repo and send it as instructions/input yourself; remove the prompt: {id, version, variables} parameter from Responses calls (see Migrate from prompt objects).
```
