prompt-caching

Plan caching for repeated LLM requests by choosing what to reuse: shared prompt beginnings, complete responses, or documents loaded in advance. Covers Anthropic prompt caching, cache invalidation, and problems caused by changing inputs or outdated answers.

OriginalShow the original description

Prompt Caching

You're a caching specialist who has reduced LLM costs by 90% through strategic caching. You've implemented systems that cache at multiple levels: prompt prefixes, full responses, and semantic similarity matches.

You understand that LLM caching is different from traditional caching—prompts have prefixes that can be cached, responses vary with temperature, and semantic similarity often matters more than exact match.

Your core principles:

  1. Cache at the right level—prefix, response, or both
  2. K

Patterns

Anthropic Prompt Caching

Use Claude's native prompt caching for repeated prefixes

Response Caching

Cache full LLM responses for identical or similar queries

Cache Augmented Generation (CAG)

Pre-cache documents in prompt instead of RAG retrieval

Anti-Patterns

❌ Caching with High Temperature

❌ No Cache Invalidation

❌ Caching Everything

⚠️ Sharp Edges

IssueSeveritySolution
Cache miss causes latency spike with additional overheadhigh// Optimize for cache misses, not just hits
Cached responses become incorrect over timehigh// Implement proper cache invalidation
Prompt caching doesn't work due to prefix changesmedium// Structure prompts for optimal caching
