I'm new here and wants to know more

[cbruyndoncx]

Fyi @chrissonntag I just saw that ollama now has openapi compatible interface, I also saw there is a generic client now wich might cover this use case ...

[waldo323]

I look forward to using fabric with local models, whether ollama, litellm or whatever fabic ends up working with it.

Hi! I am JJ (sorry, real name unpronounceable in English) otherwise known as "quiet ranger". I am an old timer back end developer, Linux tinkler with a penchant for trying new things every so often. I run into a few issues with fabric but I will post those separately

[CelebritySoulja]

Nice and happy to be here

Hi there, I’m Dilara 👋 It's so nice to chat with you. I hope your day is off to a great start. 🌅 What's new in your world? 😄

Hello @danielmiessler. I'm Doug Finke 15x Microsoft MVP. This project is great. I created the PowerShell AI Assistant when OpenAI released the new API in November 2023. It mirrors the Python SDK. I also ported an earlier Python SDK version from Jan 2023 PowerShell AI supporting Text completion and the early Chat approach.

I saw you demo Fabric which inspired me to create PSWeave. I borrowed your "system prompts" and added more like: CompareAndContrast, DateBuddy, MsGraphWizard, PostToX, PowerShellMenuWizard, PsRegexWizard.

It leverages the object flow engine in PowerShell that enables piping from one "prompt" to the next, like yours.
It also uses the new AI Assistant OpenAI API primitives - Assistant, Threads, Messages and Runs. It also all runs in the OpenAI backend.

Would love to chat. Awesome work! - Doug

Hello and wow! this is 100% cool stuff!

I'm Andy, I work in a CyberSec team as Vulnerability Manager, AppSec tester and webapp/API security analyst.

I have a general question: how do you add new patterns?
i.e. I've drafted my system.md file and added a blank user.md file under fabric/patterns/MyNewPattern folder, however fabric --list seems to ignore it.
Is there any specific command that must be given to add new patterns once created?

Thanks and congrats...this is HUGE.
AdV

[th3f001]

Oops! It was THAT easy! Apologies for the oversight.
As for the new patterns....any channel where I can submit my eventual patterns before calling for the Pull Request or are you reviewing any new pattern at that stage only?

[travisdittmer]

@th3f001 having the same issue with new patterns being ignored by fabric --list. how did you resolve this?

[travisdittmer]

this solved the issue for me #167. works great!

[protteveel]

Hello, I'm Percy from Redwood City, CA.
I build and lead a PS organization delivering services related to Application Security Testing (AST) tools.
I use ChatGPT regularly. It has increased my performance by roughly 40%.
I imagine, using fabric it will be boosted even more!
Thanks, @danielmiessler! 🙏🏻

Hello! Firstly, @danielmiessler thank you so much for your generosity sharing your incredible prompts and opening up your workflow. I've gained so much from your UL newsletter and have frequently been inspired by your work ethos, and approach to life in general.

Reading some of the pull-request dialogue, I noticed mention of a Volunteer list. I'd love to put my hand up for something like this, but...

I've only been hobby coding for 6 months-ish and I've never worked in tech (career switch in the planning), so regrettably I probably won't be able to offer much to the project at this stage.

(I've actually only just published my first Repo whisper_wrapper - as it happens, an implementation of Whisper for batch transcribing audio files. In novice Python😜 I developed it to process an entire podcast series, for subsequent feeding into an LLM alongside my specialised adaptation of extract_wisdom!)

However, I might be okay for testing - particularly when you're at the stage of gauging suitability for people who are really interested in the project but are less technically advanced. I'm also pretty good at documentation.

If there's anything /fabric needs a noob for, I'd love to pitch in 😊

[xssdoctor]

Hey thank you! Take a look at a branch I made called transcribe. It does something similar. Let me know if yours is better and we can work on it together

[Dilara760]

Do we have to have GPT 4 to use Fabric?

[ValiantEagleSec]

I just realized the way I formatted that was weird. What about for my command that has the link being piped into the pattern?

[ValiantEagleSec]

I'm on Ubuntu Linux, here's what I just tried and the result:

"myuser"@ubuntu:/Documents$ touch wizardoz.txt
"myuser"@ubuntu:/Documents$ nano wizardoz.txt
"myuser"@ubuntu:/Documents$ xclip -sel c < wizardoz.txt
"myuser"@ubuntu:/Documents$ xclip -o -sel clip | fabric --pattern summarize

[xssdoctor]

so I think you're running into an error that I introduced a few days ago but then fixed yesterday. Go into your .zshrc or .bashrc (whichever shell you're using) and delete all of the fabric aliases. Then run setup.sh again

[ValiantEagleSec]

Ok, I did that and am hitting the same error. Here's the only fabric aliases I see now in my bashrc:

alias fabric='/home/user/.cache/pypoetry/virtualenvs/fabric-b-VP_u_0-py3.10/bin/fabric'

alias fabric-api='/home/user/.cache/pypoetry/virtualenvs/fabric-b-VP_u_0-py3.10/bin/fabric-api'

alias fabric-webui='/home/user/.cache/pypoetry/virtualenvs/fabric-b-VP_u_0-py3.10/bin/fabric-webui'

alias yt='/home/user/.cache/pypoetry/virtualenvs/fabric-b-VP_u_0-py3.10/bin/yt'

[azarita1966]

I had the same error, and following advice from @xssdoctor to @ValiantEagleSec I tried to modify my .zshrc and .bashrc, but they were empty. So, no aliases to delete.
I tried fabric --clear , but system notified that there's no such command.

So, the key here is that 'model gpt-4-turbo-preview does not exist'. I checked with fabric --listmodels and indeed this model wasn't listed. I started to search how can add this model. It turn out that you have to add more money to your balance. I went to my account at OpenAI.com, then Settings, Billing, Add to Credit Balance.you have to add minimum 5 dollars. After that the model gpt-4-turbo-preview was added to my list of models in Fabric. I run three patterns, and it deducted about 40 cents from this balance. It's on the top of monthly subscription to ChatGPT4.
Hope that's useful. And if you have other solutions to the problem (not involving paying extra), I'd be interested.

[xssdoctor]

did you put your api key in? with --setup?

[ValiantEagleSec]

I don't think so, I just tried to open zshrc and it was a blank file

[xssdoctor]

.zshrc is a blank file? And which shell are you using?

[ValiantEagleSec]

Yep, typed "nano ~/.zshrc", it opened in the same directory that bashrc is in, but was blank and said New File. I'm using the GNOME terminal on my Ubuntu VM, so I assume it's bash.

[xssdoctor]

Oh you already did. That error message doesn’t make sense because it’s assuming you are using the —model when you aren’t so that must be one of your aliases. Do echo $shell

[ValiantEagleSec]

echo $shell

The output is blank, that seems problematic

[xssdoctor]

Ok then show me your .bashrc file

[xssdoctor]

Or maybe it’s in bash config

[majinmarco]

Hi, how can I just provide input to the model? I want to ask a question about a article I pasted. I have the following:

pbpaste | fabric --stream

I want to give input to fabric like so:

pbpaste | fabric --stream {input}

Obviously this does not work. How could I do it if it is possible?

[johnconnor-sec]

You could use echo "$(printf "Input here" && pbpaste)" | fabric -s. This usually works for me. You can use similar methods to create an "agentic" type workflow.

[twelsh37]

Hey All. How can I submit a new pattern for possible inclusion in the patterns library for Fabric? I have created a pattern that analyses a CIPFA case study and outputs a detailed analysis of the paper, SWOT, TOWS, and Porter's Five Forces Analysis, along with a whole raft of analysis and summarisation. I created it initially to break down a paper for my wife, but I have now had time to get it all up and running, having used improve_prompt, and I would like to release it to the general public. I'm sure someone may find it helpful.
