Word Loom is a convention for expressing language text and templates for AI language model-related uses, for example prompt templates. The format is based on TOML, and word looms are meant to be kept in resource directories for use with code invoking LLMs.
Basic principles:
- Separation of code from natural language
- Must be a straightforward process to translate any natural language elements
- Composability of natural language elements
- Friendliness to mechanical comparisons (i.e. via
diff
) - Friendliness to traditional globalization (G11N) techniques
