After installation, run the interactive setup wizard:

```bash
# Run the setup wizard
core4ai setup
```


The wizard will guide you through:

1. **MLflow Configuration**: 
   - Enter the URI of your MLflow server (default: http://localhost:8080)
   - Core4AI will use MLflow to store and version your prompts

2. **Existing Prompts Import**:
   - If you already have prompts in MLflow, you can import them into Core4AI
   - You can provide prompt names directly or via a file

3. **AI Provider Selection**:
   - Choose between OpenAI or Ollama
   - For OpenAI: Set your API key as an environment variable:
     ```bash
     export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
     ```
   - For Ollama: Specify the server URI and model to use

## 📝 Prompt Management

Core4AI uses a powerful prompt management system that allows you to create, register, and use prompt templates in various formats.

### Prompt Template Format

Core4AI uses markdown files to define prompt templates. Each template should follow this structure:

```markdown
# Prompt Name: example_prompt

## Description
A brief description of what this prompt does.

## Tags
type: example
task: writing
purpose: demonstration

## Template
Write a {{ style }} response about {{ topic }} that includes:
- Important point 1
- Important point 2
- Important point 3

Please ensure the tone is {{ tone }} and suitable for {{ audience }}.
```

#### Key Guidelines

1. **Prompt Name** is required and must:
   - Be the first line of the file
   - Use the format `# Prompt Name: name_prompt`
   - End with `_prompt` suffix
   - Use underscores instead of spaces (e.g., `cover_letter_prompt`)

2. **Template Section** must:
   - Use double braces for variables: `{{ variable_name }}`
   - Have at least one variable
   - Provide clear instructions

3. **Tags Section** is recommended and should include:
   - `type`: The prompt category (e.g., essay, email, code)
   - `task`: The purpose (e.g., writing, analysis, instruction)
   - Additional metadata as needed

### Creating Prompt Templates

You can create a new prompt template using the CLI:

```bash
# Create a new prompt template in the current directory
core4ai register --create email

# Create a prompt template in a specific directory
core4ai register --create blog --dir ./my_prompts
```

This will:
1. Create a template file with the proper structure
2. Open it in your default editor for customization
3. Offer to register it immediately after editing

### Registering Prompts

Core4AI supports multiple ways to register prompts:

```bash
# Register a single prompt directly
core4ai register --name "email_prompt" "Write a {{ formality }} email..."

# Register from a markdown file
core4ai register --markdown ./my_prompts/email_prompt.md

# Register all prompts from a directory
core4ai register --dir ./my_prompts

# Register built-in sample prompts
core4ai register --samples

# Register only prompts that don't exist yet
core4ai register --dir ./my_prompts --only-new
```

### Managing Prompt Types

Core4AI automatically tracks prompt types based on the prompt names:

```bash
# List all registered prompt types
core4ai list-types
```

The type is extracted from the prompt name:
- For `email_prompt` → type is `email`
- For `cover_letter_prompt` → type is `cover_letter`

### Listing Available Prompts

```bash
# List all prompts
core4ai list

# Show detailed information
core4ai list --details

# Get details for a specific prompt
core4ai list --name email_prompt
```

## 🛠️ Using Core4AI

### Basic Chat Interactions

```bash
# Simple query - Core4AI will match to the best prompt template
core4ai chat "Write about the future of AI"

# Get a simple response without enhancement details
core4ai chat --simple "Write an essay about climate change"

# See verbose output with prompt enhancement details
core4ai chat --verbose "Write an email to my boss about a vacation request"
```

### Sample Prompts

Core4AI comes with several pre-registered prompt templates:

```bash
# Register sample prompts
core4ai register --samples
```

This will register the following prompt types:

| Prompt Type | Description | Sample Variables |
|-------------|-------------|------------------|
| `essay_prompt` | Academic writing | topic |
| `email_prompt` | Email composition | formality, recipient_type, topic, tone |

## 📊 How Core4AI Works

Core4AI follows this workflow to process queries:

1. **Query Analysis**: Analyze the user's query to determine intent
2. **Prompt Matching**: Match the query to the most appropriate prompt template
3. **Parameter Extraction**: Extract relevant parameters from the query
4. **Template Application**: Apply the template with extracted parameters
5. **Validation**: Validate the enhanced prompt for completeness and accuracy
6. **Adjustment**: Adjust the prompt if validation issues are found
7. **AI Response**: Send the optimized prompt to the AI provider

### From Query to Enhanced Response
The user experience with Core4AI is straightforward yet powerful:

![alt text](user-flow.png)

This workflow ensures that every user query is intelligently matched to the optimal prompt template stored in MLflow, parameters are properly extracted and applied, and the result is validated before being sent to the AI provider.
