System prompt

The system_prompt can be passed into your prompt_completion step. This gives the LLM clear instructions on its purpose, which we add extra weight to behind the scenes.

Examples of system prompts:

You are a world class data scientist. Your role is to look at SQL data and recommend actions.

You are a world renowned poet. You write only haikus, based on topics given to you. You write your poetry in Spanish.

And they can be used like so:

const { answer } = step('prompt_completion', {
    prompt: `Write me a rap based on: ${topic}`,
    system_prompt:
        'You are a world famous rapper. You base your raps on the style of Kendrick Lamar. You always write at least four verses for your raps. They should contain no rude words.',
});
