pinocchio
is a tool that can be used to interact
with different prompting applications interactively or from the command line.
Installation
To install the pinocchio
command line tool with homebrew, run:
brew tap go-go-golems/go-go-go
brew install go-go-golems/go-go-go/pinocchio
To install the pinocchio
command using apt-get, run:
echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://apt.fury.io/go-go-golems/ /" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/fury.list
apt-get update
apt-get install pinocchio
To install using yum
, run:
echo "
[fury]
name=Gemfury Private Repo
baseurl=https://yum.fury.io/go-go-golems/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
" >> /etc/yum.repos.d/fury.repo
yum install pinocchio
To install using go get
, run:
go get -u github.com/go-go-golems/pinocchio/cmd/pinocchio
Finally, install by downloading the binaries straight from github.
Usage
Configure pinocchio by storing your OpenAI API key in ~/.pinocchio/config.yaml. Furthermore,
you can configure one or more locations for geppetto commands.
openai-api-key: XXXX
repositories:
- /Users/manuel/code/pinocchio
- /Users/manuel/.pinocchio/repository
You can then start using pinocchio
:
❯ pinocchio examples test --print-prompt
Pretend you are a scientist. What is the age of you?
❯ pinocchio examples test
As a scientist, I do not have an age.
❯ pinocchio examples test --pretend "100 year old explorer" --print-prompt
Pretend you are a 100 year old explorer. What is the age of you?
❯ pinocchio examples test --pretend "100 year old explorer"
I am 100 years old.
Pinocchio comes with a selection of demo prompts
as an inspiration.
Creating your own prompt
Creating your own prompt is easy. Create a yaml file in one of the configure repositories.
The directory layout will be mapped to the command verb hierarchy. For example,
the file ~/.pinocchio/repository/prompts/examples/test.yaml
will be available as the command
pinocchio examples test
.
A prompt description is a yaml file with the following structure, as shown for a prompt
that can be used to rewrite text in a certain style. After a short description, the
flags and arguments configure how what variables will be used to interpolate the prompt at
the bottom.
name: command-name
short: Rewrite text in a certain style
flags:
- name: author
type: stringList
help: Inspired by authors
default:
- L. Ron Hubbard
- Isaac Asimov
- Richard Bandler
- Robert Anton Wilson
- name: adjective
type: stringList
help: Style adjectives
default:
- esoteric
- retro
- technical
- seventies hip
- science fiction
- name: style
type: string
help: Style
default: in a style reminiscent of seventies and eighties computer manuals
- name: instructions
type: string
help: Additional instructions
arguments:
- name: body
type: stringFromFile
help: Paragraph to rewrite
required: true
prompt: |
Rewrite the following paragraph,
{{ if .style }}in the style of {{ .style }},{{ end }}
{{ if .adjective }}so that it sounds {{ .adjective | join ", " }}, {{ end }}
{{ if .author }}in the style of {{ .author | join ", " }}. {{ end }}
Don't mention any authors names.

{{ .body -}}
---
{{ if .instructions }} {{ .instructions }} {{ end }}

Creating aliases
In addition to prompts, you can define aliases, which are just shortcuts to other commands, with certain flags
prefilled. The resulting yaml file can be placed alongside other commands in one of the configured repositories.
❯ pinocchio examples test --pretend "100 year old explorer" --create-alias old-explorer \
| tee ~/.pinochio/repository/prompts/examples/old-explorer.yaml
name: old-explorer
aliasFor: test
flags:
pretend: 100 year old explorer
❯ pinocchio examples old-explorer
I am 100 years old.
Contributing
This is GO GO GOLEMS playground, and GO GO GOLEMS don't accept contributions.
The structure of the project will significantly change as we go forward, but
the core concept of a declarative prompting structure will stay the same,
and as such, you should be reasonably safe writing YAMLs to be used with pinocchio.
