Fabric Prompts for gptel

fabric crowd sources prompts, gptel is a versatile LLM client for emacs. I wanted fabric prompts to be usable via gptel.

Overview

• pickup the fabric patterns subdirectory via a no-cone sparse checkout
• filter patterns that have a system prompt available based on a “system.md exists” predicate
• a completing read then allows to hit gptel-send with the selected pattern, without altering your existing custom gptel-message

Installation

Doom Emacs

In your packages.el, after your gptel fetch:

(package! fabric-gpt.el
  :recipe (:host github :repo "/rajp152k/fabric-gpt.el"))

In your config.el, after your gptel config:

(use-package! fabric-gpt.el
  :after gptel
  :config
  (setq fabric-gpt.el-root "<root dir to cache fabric patterns>")
  (fabric-gpt.el-sync-patterns))

Usage

fabric-gpt.el-send

This is the primary exposure for utilizing fabric patterns.

I would recommend you bind (fabric-gptel-send) to something handy, I use “leader i g f f” as it is mnemonically aligned with what gptel exposes via “leader i g [hsm]”

Upon invocation, a completing read will ask for the desired pattern (with all the bells and whistles of your favourite completion engine (I’m using vertico))

Syncing patterns

I bind (fabric-gpt.el-sync-patterns) to “leader i g f s” to fetch any new patterns from the fabric upstream

These are pulled into your <fabric-gpt.el-root>/fabric
