What is the "system" prompt?

Is it like this:
<|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>
You are a knowledgeable assistant trained to provide accurate and helpful information. Please respond to the user's queries promptly and politely.
<|eot_id|>

Or just the pure promots (w/o <|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|><|eot_id|>)?

Hi @kk3dmax we provide some examples in our blog post! Let us know if that helps :)

@pcuenq , could you recommend a good generic system prompt for general user/assistant type of conversation?

So far I'm using the common "A chat between a curious user and an artificial intelligence assistant. The assistant gives helpful, detailed, and polite answers to the user's questions." but I'd like to know if there are much better ones.

Do anyone knows how do I make a curl request with a system prompt?
