Introduce Package Rules Convention
Improving LLM Workflows with Customizable Rules
In recent years, Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized the way we interact with technology. These powerful tools have enabled developers to create more sophisticated and user-friendly applications. However, as LLMs become increasingly complex, the need for customizable rules and guidelines has become more pressing. To address this need, we propose the introduction of a package rules convention, which allows developers to provide additional guidance for end-users working with LLMs.
What are Package Rules?
Package rules are a set of guidelines and best practices that developers can include in their packages to help users work with LLMs more effectively. These rules can be used to provide context, clarify expectations, and ensure that users are aware of the potential limitations and risks associated with using LLMs.
Benefits of Package Rules
The introduction of package rules offers several benefits for developers and users alike. Some of the key advantages include:
- Improved user experience: By providing clear and concise guidelines, package rules can help users navigate the complexities of LLMs and make more informed decisions.
- Enhanced collaboration: Package rules can facilitate collaboration between developers and users by establishing a common understanding of the rules and guidelines that govern LLM usage.
- Increased transparency: By making package rules publicly available, developers can demonstrate their commitment to transparency and accountability.
How to Implement Package Rules
To implement package rules, developers can create a package-rules.md
file in the root directory of their package. This file should contain a clear and concise description of the rules and guidelines that govern LLM usage in the package.
Example Package Rules File
Here is an example of what a package-rules.md
file might look like:
# Package Rules

Including Package Rules in the Files List
To make package rules easily accessible to users, developers can include the package-rules.md
file in the files list of their package. This will allow users to browse the rules from their dependencies or combine them into a single file to provide more comprehensive rules to LLM.
Tools that Can Utilize Package Rules
Several tools, such as Tidewave, can utilize package rules to provide better and/or more up-to-date context to the LLM. By incorporating package rules into their workflows, these tools can help users navigate the complexities of LLMs and make more informed decisions.
Conclusion
The introduction of package rules convention offers several benefits for developers and users alike. By providing clear and concise guidelines, package rules can help users navigate the complexities of LLMs and make more informed decisions. We hope that this proposal will inspire developers to adopt package rules and contribute to the development of more sophisticated and user-friendly LLM applications.
Future Directions
As the use of LLMs continues to grow, it is essential that we develop more sophisticated and user-friendly tools for working with these powerful technologies. The introduction of package rules convention is an important step in this direction, and we look forward to seeing how developers will utilize this feature to improve their workflows and applications.
Recommendations
We recommend that developers adopt the package rules convention and include a package-rules.md
file in the root directory of their package. We also recommend that users take advantage of this feature by browsing the rules from their dependencies or combining them into a single file to provide more comprehensive rules to their LLM.
