Prompty

Prompty is an asset class and format for LLM prompts designed to enhance observability, understandability, and portability for developers. The primary goal is to accelerate the developer inner loop.

This repo contains the following:

This Visual Studio Code extension offers an intuitive prompt playground within VS Code to streamline the prompt engineering process. You can find the Prompty extension in the Visual Studio Code Marketplace.

What is Prompty?

    Define Configuration

    Switch Model Configuration

  • Use VS Code settings to define model configuration at:

    • User level for use across different prompty files.

    • Workspace level to share with team members via Git.

      ModelConfigurationSettings

  • We strongly encourage using Azure Active Directory authentication for enhanced security. Leave the api_key empty to trigger AAD auth.

  • OpenAI is also supported. You can store the key in VSCode settings or use ${env:xxx} to read the API key from an environment variable.

    • You can put environment variables in .env file, in the same folder of the prompty file, or in the workspace root folder.
    • Alternatively, you can also specify it in system variables, follow OpenAI's Guide for key safety, setting it through Control Panel/zsh/bash, and then restart VS Code to load new values.
