Le bouton Générer du Playground vous permet de générer des prompts, des fonctions et des schémas à partir d’une simple description de votre tâche. Ce guide explique précisément son fonctionnement.
Vue d’ensemble
Créer des prompts et des schémas de toutes pièces peut prendre du temps. Leur génération automatique peut donc vous aider à démarrer rapidement. Le bouton Générer repose sur deux approches principales :
- Prompts : nous utilisons des méta-prompts qui intègrent les bonnes pratiques pour générer ou améliorer des prompts.
- Schémas : nous utilisons des méta-schémas qui produisent du JSON et des définitions de fonctions à la syntaxe valide.
Nous utilisons actuellement des méta-prompts et des méta-schémas, mais nous pourrions intégrer à l’avenir des techniques plus avancées, comme DSPy et la « descente de gradient ».
Prompts
Un méta-prompt demande au modèle de créer un prompt efficace à partir de la description de votre tâche ou d’améliorer un prompt existant. Les méta-prompts du Playground s’appuient sur nos bonnes pratiques d’ingénierie de prompts et sur notre expérience concrète auprès des utilisateurs.
Nous utilisons des méta-prompts spécifiques aux différents types de sortie, comme l’audio, afin que les prompts générés respectent le format attendu.

# Guidelines
- Understand the Task: Grasp the main objective, goals, requirements, constraints, and expected output.
- Minimal Changes: If an existing prompt is provided, improve it only if it's simple. For complex prompts, enhance clarity and add missing elements without altering the original structure.
- Reasoning Before Conclusions**: Encourage reasoning steps before any conclusions are reached. ATTENTION! If the user provides examples where the reasoning happens afterward, REVERSE the order! NEVER START EXAMPLES WITH CONCLUSIONS!
- Reasoning Order: Call out reasoning portions of the prompt and conclusion parts (specific fields by name). For each, determine the ORDER in which this is done, and whether it needs to be reversed.
- Conclusion, classifications, or results should ALWAYS appear last.
- Examples: Include high-quality examples if helpful, using placeholders [in brackets] for complex elements.
- What kinds of examples may need to be included, how many, and whether they are complex enough to benefit from placeholders.
- Clarity and Conciseness: Use clear, specific language. Avoid unnecessary instructions or bland statements.
- Formatting: Use markdown features for readability. DO NOT USE \`\`\` CODE BLOCKS UNLESS SPECIFICALLY REQUESTED.
- Preserve User Content: If the input task or prompt includes extensive guidelines or examples, preserve them entirely, or as closely as possible. If they are vague, consider breaking down into sub-steps. Keep any details, guidelines, examples, variables, or placeholders provided by the user.
- Constants: DO include constants in the prompt, as they are not susceptible to prompt injection. Such as guides, rubrics, and examples.
- Output Format: Explicitly the most appropriate output format, in detail. This should include length and syntax (e.g. short sentence, paragraph, JSON, etc.)
- For tasks outputting well-defined or structured data (classification, JSON, etc.) bias toward outputting a JSON.
- JSON should never be wrapped in code blocks (\`\`\`) unless explicitly requested.
The final prompt you output should adhere to the following structure below. Do not include any additional commentary, only output the completed system prompt. SPECIFICALLY, do not include any additional messages at the start or end of the prompt. (e.g. no "---")
[Concise instruction describing the task - this should be the first line in the prompt, no section header]
[Additional details as needed.]
[Optional sections with headings or bullet points for detailed steps.]
# Steps [optional]
[optional: a detailed breakdown of the steps necessary to accomplish the task]
# Output Format
[Specifically call out how the output should be formatted, be it response length, structure e.g. JSON, markdown, etc]

[Optional: 1-3 well-defined examples with placeholders if necessary. Clearly mark where examples start and end, and what the input and output are. User placeholders as necessary.]
[If the examples are shorter than what a realistic example is expected to be, make a reference with () explaining how real examples should be longer / shorter / different. AND USE PLACEHOLDERS! ]

# Guidelines
- Understand the Task: Grasp the main objective, goals, requirements, constraints, and expected output.
- Tone: Make sure to specifically call out the tone. By default it should be emotive and friendly, and speak quickly to avoid keeping the user just waiting.
- Audio Output Constraints: Because the model is outputting audio, the responses should be short and conversational.
- Minimal Changes: If an existing prompt is provided, improve it only if it's simple. For complex prompts, enhance clarity and add missing elements without altering the original structure.
- Examples: Include high-quality examples if helpful, using placeholders [in brackets] for complex elements.
- What kinds of examples may need to be included, how many, and whether they are complex enough to benefit from placeholders.
- It is very important that any examples included reflect the short, conversational output responses of the model.
Keep the sentences very short by default. Instead of 3 sentences in a row by the assistant, it should be split up with a back and forth with the user instead.
- By default each sentence should be a few words only (5-20ish words). However, if the user specifically asks for "short" responses, then the examples should truly have 1-10 word responses max.
- Make sure the examples are multi-turn (at least 4 back-forth-back-forth per example), not just one questions an response. They should reflect an organic conversation.
- Clarity and Conciseness: Use clear, specific language. Avoid unnecessary instructions or bland statements.
- Preserve User Content: If the input task or prompt includes extensive guidelines or examples, preserve them entirely, or as closely as possible. If they are vague, consider breaking down into sub-steps. Keep any details, guidelines, examples, variables, or placeholders provided by the user.
- Constants: DO include constants in the prompt, as they are not susceptible to prompt injection. Such as guides, rubrics, and examples.

);Modification des prompts
Pour modifier les prompts, nous utilisons un méta-prompt légèrement adapté. Les modifications précises sont faciles à appliquer, mais déterminer les changements nécessaires pour des révisions moins cadrées peut s’avérer difficile. Pour y remédier, nous ajoutons une section de raisonnement au début de la réponse. Cette section aide le modèle à déterminer les changements nécessaires en évaluant notamment la clarté du prompt existant, l’ordre du raisonnement détaillé (« chain-of-thought »), la structure générale et le degré de précision. Elle propose des améliorations, puis est extraite et retirée de la réponse finale.

);Schémas
Les schémas de sorties structurées et les schémas de fonctions sont eux-mêmes des objets JSON. Nous utilisons donc les sorties structurées pour les générer. Cela nécessite de définir un schéma pour la sortie souhaitée, qui est ici elle-même un schéma. Pour cela, nous utilisons un schéma qui se décrit lui-même : un méta-schéma.
Comme le champ parameters d’un schéma de fonction est lui-même un schéma, nous utilisons le même méta-schéma pour générer des fonctions.
Définition d’un méta-schéma soumis à des contraintes
Les sorties structurées prennent en charge deux modes : strict=true et strict=false. Les deux modes utilisent le même modèle, entraîné à respecter le schéma fourni, mais seul le « mode strict » garantit une conformité parfaite grâce à un échantillonnage sous contraintes.
Notre objectif est de générer des schémas pour le mode strict en utilisant ce même mode. Cependant, les méta-schémas officiels fournis par la spécification JSON Schema reposent sur des fonctionnalités qui ne sont pas encore prises en charge en mode strict. Cela pose des difficultés tant pour les schémas d’entrée que pour les schémas de sortie.
- Schéma d’entrée : nous ne pouvons pas utiliser de fonctionnalités non prises en charge dans le schéma d’entrée pour décrire le schéma de sortie.
- Schéma de sortie : le schéma généré ne doit pas inclure de fonctionnalités non prises en charge.
Comme nous devons générer de nouvelles clés dans le schéma de sortie, le méta-schéma d’entrée doit utiliser additionalProperties. Nous ne pouvons donc pas actuellement utiliser le mode strict pour générer des schémas. Nous souhaitons néanmoins que le schéma généré respecte les contraintes du mode strict.
Pour surmonter cette limitation, nous définissons un pseudo-méta-schéma : un méta-schéma qui utilise des fonctionnalités non prises en charge en mode strict pour décrire uniquement celles qui le sont. Cette approche consiste à sortir du mode strict pour définir le méta-schéma, tout en garantissant que les schémas générés respectent les contraintes de ce mode.
Construire un méta-schéma soumis à des contraintes est une tâche complexe. Nous avons donc fait appel à nos modèles pour nous aider.
Nous avons commencé par fournir à o1-preview et à gpt-4o, en mode JSON, une description de notre objectif fondée sur la documentation des sorties structurées.
Après quelques itérations, nous avons obtenu notre premier méta-schéma fonctionnel.
Nous avons ensuite utilisé gpt-4o avec les sorties structurées, en lui fournissant ce schéma initial , la description de notre tâche et la documentation, afin de générer de meilleures versions. À chaque itération, nous avons utilisé un schéma amélioré pour générer le suivant, puis nous avons procédé à une vérification manuelle minutieuse du résultat final.
Enfin, après avoir nettoyé la sortie, nous avons validé les schémas à l’aide d’un ensemble d’évaluations destinées aux schémas et aux fonctions.
Nettoyage de la sortie
Le mode strict garantit une conformité parfaite au schéma. Cependant, comme nous ne pouvons pas l’utiliser pendant la génération, nous devons valider et transformer la sortie après l’avoir générée.
Après avoir généré un schéma, nous effectuons les étapes suivantes :
- Définissez
additionalPropertiessurfalsepour tous les objets. - Marquez toutes les propriétés comme obligatoires.
- Pour les schémas de sorties structurées, encapsulez-les dans un objet
json_schema. - Pour les fonctions, encapsulez-les dans un objet
function.
L’objet function de la Realtime API diffère légèrement de celui de l’API Chat Completions, mais utilise le même schéma.
Méta-schémas
Chaque méta-schéma est associé à un prompt qui contient des exemples few-shot. En combinant ces prompts avec la fiabilité des sorties structurées, même sans mode strict, nous avons pu générer des schémas.

You must also make sure:
- all fields in an object are set as required
- I REPEAT, ALL FIELDS MUST BE MARKED AS REQUIRED
- all objects must have additionalProperties set to false
- because of this, some cases like "attributes" or "metadata" properties that would normally allow additional properties should instead have a fixed set of properties
- all objects must have properties defined
- field order matters. any form of "thinking" or "explanation" should come before the conclusion
- $defs must be defined under the schema param
Notable keywords NOT supported include:
- For objects: unevaluatedProperties, propertyNames, minProperties, maxProperties
- For arrays: unevaluatedItems, contains, minContains, maxContains, uniqueItems
Other notes:
- definitions and recursion are supported
- only if necessary to include references e.g. "$defs", it must be inside the "schema" object
