System prompt for "verbose" output #562

Closed bzorn closed 3 days ago

bzorn commented 6 days ago

Sometimes you want the model to explain its output with greater clarity. Have a special "explain" system prompt for that. Maybe also add a --verbose option to the command line version that inserts this for debugging purposes.

Also, in the "explain" prompt, ask the model to quote from the input to make its explanations concrete.

So you could use env.vars.explain and set that flag in the cli

if (env.vars.explain)
  $`Explain your reasoning`

then

genaiscript ... --vars explain=true

Sounds like a good approach. Closing since it is easy for users to implement on their own.
