standard-prompts v1.1.0

standard-prompts

Standard AI prompts that can be invoked from the command line. To get started, make sure node.js is installed and run:

npm install -g standard-prompts

Note: This command will install standard prompts in the NPM bin directory; you may need to source the .bashrc or .zshrc file in order for the commands to be available in the same terminal session.

Standard prompts uses the OpenAI API. Make sure to also set OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable (and optionally OPENAI_API_MODEL):

export OPENAI_API_KEY=<insert-api-key-here>
export OPENAI_API_MODEL=gpt-4

If OPENAI_API_MODEL env var is not set, Standard Prompts defaults to the gpt-4 model.

Usage

Input can be either passed in as an argument to a standard prompt or piped in. For example, both are valid:

ai_code_generate "Standard gitignore file for a node.js project"
echo "Standard gitignore file for a node.js project" | ai_code_generate

Philosophy

Composable

Standard prompts follows the Unix philosophy of being composable. For example, commands can be piped together:

cat email-draft.txt | ai_review_email | pbcopy

The example commands:

• Takes an email draft from email-draft.txt
• Pipes it to ai_review_email to review the email.
• Finally, pipes the reviewed email to pbcopy, which saves it to the clipboard for pasting into an email.
