โจ New Features
๐ฆ Package @promptbook/anthropic-claude
To install this package, run:
npm i ptbk
npm install @promptbook/anthropic-claude
@promptbook/anthropic-claude
integrates Anthropic's Claude API with Promptbook. It allows to execute Promptbooks with OpenAI Claude 2 and 3 models.
๐งก Usage
import { createPipelineExecutor, createCollectionFromDirectory, assertsExecutionSuccessful } from '@promptbook/core';
import {
createCollectionFromDirectory,
$provideExecutionToolsForNode,
$provideFilesystemForNode,
} from '@promptbook/node';
import { JavascriptExecutionTools } from '@promptbook/execute-javascript';
import { AnthropicClaudeExecutionTools } from '@promptbook/anthropic-claude';
const fs = $provideFilesystemForNode();
const llm = new AnthropicClaudeExecutionTools(
{
isVerbose: true,
apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_CLAUDE_API_KEY,
},
);
const executables = await $provideExecutablesForNode();
const tools = {
llm,
fs,
scrapers: await $provideScrapersForNode({ fs, llm, executables }),
script: [new JavascriptExecutionTools()],
};
const collection = await createCollectionFromDirectory('./promptbook-collection', tools);
const pipeline = await collection.getPipelineByUrl(`https://promptbook.studio/my-collection/write-article.ptbk.md`);
const pipelineExecutor = createPipelineExecutor({ pipeline, tools });
const inputParameters = { word: 'rabbit' };
const result = await pipelineExecutor(inputParameters);
assertsExecutionSuccessful(result);
const { isSuccessful, errors, outputParameters, executionReport } = result;
console.info(outputParameters);
๐งโโ๏ธ Connect to LLM providers automatically
You can just use $provideExecutionToolsForNode
function to create all required tools from environment variables like ANTHROPIC_CLAUDE_API_KEY
and OPENAI_API_KEY
automatically.
import { createPipelineExecutor, createCollectionFromDirectory, assertsExecutionSuccessful } from '@promptbook/core';
import { JavascriptExecutionTools } from '@promptbook/execute-javascript';
import { $provideExecutionToolsForNode } from '@promptbook/node';
import { $provideFilesystemForNode } from '@promptbook/node';
const tools = await $provideExecutionToolsForNode();
const collection = await createCollectionFromDirectory('./promptbook-collection', tools);
const pipeline = await collection.getPipelineByUrl(`https://promptbook.studio/my-collection/write-article.ptbk.md`);
const pipelineExecutor = createPipelineExecutor({ pipeline, tools });
const inputParameters = { word: 'dog' };
const result = await pipelineExecutor(inputParameters);
assertsExecutionSuccessful(result);
const { isSuccessful, errors, outputParameters, executionReport } = result;
console.info(outputParameters);
๐ Usage of multiple LLM providers
You can use multiple LLM providers in one Promptbook execution. The best model will be chosen automatically according to the prompt and the model's capabilities.
import { createPipelineExecutor, createCollectionFromDirectory, assertsExecutionSuccessful } from '@promptbook/core';
import { $provideExecutionToolsForNode } from '@promptbook/node';
import { $provideFilesystemForNode } from '@promptbook/node';
import { JavascriptExecutionTools } from '@promptbook/execute-javascript';
import { OpenAiExecutionTools } from '@promptbook/openai';
const fs = $provideFilesystemForNode();
const llm = [
new AnthropicClaudeExecutionTools(
{
apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_CLAUDE_API_KEY,
},
),
new OpenAiExecutionTools(
{
apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY,
},
),
new AzureOpenAiExecutionTools(
{
resourceName: process.env.AZUREOPENAI_RESOURCE_NAME,
deploymentName: process.env.AZUREOPENAI_DEPLOYMENT_NAME,
apiKey: process.env.AZUREOPENAI_API_KEY,
},
),
];
const executables = await $provideExecutablesForNode();
const tools = {
llm,
fs,
scrapers: await $provideScrapersForNode({ fs, llm, executables }),
script: [new JavascriptExecutionTools()],
};
const collection = await createCollectionFromDirectory('./promptbook-collection', tools);
const pipeline = await collection.getPipelineByUrl(`https://promptbook.studio/my-collection/write-article.ptbk.md`);
const pipelineExecutor = createPipelineExecutor({ pipeline, tools });
const inputParameters = { word: 'bunny' };
const result = await pipelineExecutor(inputParameters);
assertsExecutionSuccessful(result);
const { isSuccessful, errors, outputParameters, executionReport } = result;
console.info(outputParameters);
๐ Integration with other models

Rest of the documentation is common for entire promptbook ecosystem:
๐ค The Promptbook Whitepaper
If you have a simple, single prompt for ChatGPT, GPT-4, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Llama 3, or whatever, it doesn't matter how you integrate it. Whether it's calling a REST API directly, using the SDK, hardcoding the prompt into the source code, or importing a text file, the process remains the same.
But often you will struggle with the limitations of LLMs, such as hallucinations, off-topic responses, poor quality output, language and prompt drift, word repetition repetition repetition repetition or misuse, lack of context, or just plain w๐๐ขrd resp0nses. When this happens, you generally have three options:
- Fine-tune the model to your specifications or even train your own.
- Prompt-engineer the prompt to the best shape you can achieve.
- Orchestrate multiple prompts in a pipeline to get the best result.
In all of these situations, but especially in 3., the โจ Promptbook can make your life waaaaaaaaaay easier.
- Separates concerns between prompt-engineer and programmer, between code files and prompt files, and between prompts and their execution logic. For this purpose, it introduces a new language called the ๐ Book.
- Book allows you to focus on the business logic without having to write code or deal with the technicalities of LLMs.
- Forget about low-level details like choosing the right model, tokens, context size,
temperature
, top-k
, top-p
, or kernel sampling. Just write your intent and persona who should be responsible for the task and let the library do the rest. - We have built-in orchestration of pipeline execution and many tools to make the process easier, more reliable, and more efficient, such as caching, compilation+preparation, just-in-time fine-tuning, expectation-aware generation, agent adversary expectations, and more.
- Sometimes even the best prompts with the best framework like Promptbook
:)
can't avoid the problems. In this case, the library has built-in anomaly detection and logging to help you find and fix the problems. - Versioning is build in. You can test multiple A/B versions of pipelines and see which one works best.
- Promptbook is designed to use RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) and other advanced techniques to bring the context of your business to generic LLM. You can use knowledge to improve the quality of the output.
๐ Book language (for prompt-engineer)
Promptbook pipelines are written in markdown-like language called Book. It is designed to be understandable by non-programmers and non-technical people.

๐ฆ Packages (for developers)
This library is divided into several packages, all are published from single monorepo.
You can install all of them at once:
npm i ptbk
Or you can install them separately:

๐ Usage in Typescript / Javascript
โโ When to use Promptbook?
โ When to use
- When you are writing app that generates complex things via LLM - like websites, articles, presentations, code, stories, songs,...
- When you want to separate code from text prompts
- When you want to describe complex prompt pipelines and don't want to do it in the code
- When you want to orchestrate multiple prompts together
- When you want to reuse parts of prompts in multiple places
- When you want to version your prompts and test multiple versions
- When you want to log the execution of prompts and backtrace the issues

โ When not to use
- When you have already implemented single simple prompt and it works fine for your job
- When OpenAI Assistant (GPTs) is enough for you
- When you need streaming (this may be implemented in the future, see discussion).
- When you need to use something other than JavaScript or TypeScript (other languages are on the way, see the discussion)
- When your main focus is on something other than text - like images, audio, video, spreadsheets (other media types may be added in the future, see discussion)
- When you need to use recursion (see the discussion)
