# Prompt-Engine

This package provides an easy and reusable interface to build prompts for Large scale Language
Models (LLMs).

Prompt Engineering is a technique used to elicit intended responses out of a LLM model and can work
on many strategies.

## Background

LLMs like GPT-3 and Codex have continued to push the bounds of what AI is capable of - they can
capably generate language and code, but are also capable of emergent behavior like question answering,
summarization, classification and dialog. One of the best techniques for enabling specific behavior
out of LLMs is called prompt engineering - crafting inputs that coax the model to produce certain
kinds of outputs. Few-shot prompting is the discipline of giving examples of inputs and outputs,
such that the model has a reference for the type of output you're looking for.

Prompt engineering can be as simple as formatting a question and passing it to the model, but it can
also get quite complex - requiring substantial code to manipulate and update strings. This library
aims to make that easier. It also aims to codify patterns and practices around prompt engineering.

See
[How to get Codex to produce the code you want](https://microsoft.github.io/prompt-engineering/)
article for an example of the prompt engineering patterns this library codifies.

## Usage

The library currently supports a generic `GenericEngine` and a `TextAnalysisEngine`. Both facilitate
a pattern of prompt engineering where the prompt is composed of a description, examples of inputs
and outputs and an ongoing "dialog" representing the ongoing input/output pairs as the user and
model communicate. The dialog ensures that the model (which is stateless) has the context about
what's happened in the conversation so far.

## Examples

The repository includes a few [examples](Examples), showing how to leverage the library to generate
free form text, JSON files such as Azure ARM templates, pseudo code like Mermaid graphs, etc.

## Statement of Purpose

This library aims to simplify use of Large Language Models, and to make it easy for developers to
take advantage of existing patterns. This package works independently of any specific LLM - prompt
generated by the package should be usable with various language and code generating models.
