in prompts.py:

COT_INSTRUCTION = """Solve a question answering task by having a Thought, then Finish with your answer. Thought can reason about the current situation. Finish[answer] returns the answer and finishes the task. You will be given context that you should use to help you answer the question.
Here are some examples:
{examples}
(END OF EXAMPLES)
{reflections}
Relevant Context: {context} 
Question: {question}{scratchpad}"""
COT_AGENT_REFLECT_INSTRUCTION = """Solve a question answering task by having a Thought, then Finish with your answer. Thought can reason about the current situation. Finish[answer] returns the answer and finishes the task. You will be given context that you should use to help you answer the question.
Here are some examples:
{examples}
(END OF EXAMPLES)

{reflections}

Relevant Context: {context}
Question: {question}{scratchpad}"""

They are quite the same. Even the usage of two prompts are the same:

cot_agent_prompt = PromptTemplate(
                        input_variables=["examples", "reflections", "context", "question", "scratchpad"],
                        template = COT_INSTRUCTION,
                        )
cot_reflect_agent_prompt = PromptTemplate(
                        input_variables=["examples", "reflections", "context", "question", "scratchpad"],
                        template = COT_AGENT_REFLECT_INSTRUCTION,
                        )

So what's the difference between COT_INSTRUCTION & COT_AGENT_REFLECT_INSTRUCTION?
