AI & LLM integration patterns
Call LLM APIs, structure prompts, parse responses, and ship AI features safely.
How to Build a System-User-Assistant Message List in Python
Use dataclasses to model a chat conversation and build the system/user/assistant message list expected by LLM APIs.
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from typing import List
@dataclass
class Message:
role: str
content: str
@dataclass
class Conversation:
messages: List[Message] = field(default_factory=list)
def add_system(self, content: str) -> None:
self.messages.append(Message(role="system", con…
How to Redact Emails and Phones Before Sending to an LLM in Python
This code uses regular expressions to replace email addresses and US phone numbers with [EMAIL] and [PHONE] placeholders before any LLM processing.
import re
def redact_pii(text: str) -> str:
# Replace email addresses with [EMAIL]
text = re.sub(r'[\w.+-]+@[\w-]+\.[\w.-]+', '[EMAIL]', text)
# Replace phone numbers (US format) with [PHONE]
text = re.sub(r'\(?\d{3}\)?[-.\s]?\d{3}[-.\s]?\d{4}', '[PHONE]', text)
return text
if __name__ == "__main…
Serialize and Format Data for LLM Prompts in Python
Use dataclasses and the json module to convert Python objects to JSON strings, parse them back, and format structured data into prompt-friendly text for LLM calls.
import json
from dataclasses import dataclass, asdict
@dataclass
class Recipe:
"""Simple data model to represent a recipe."""
name: str
cuisine: str
prep_minutes: int
def to_json(recipe: Recipe) -> str:
"""Serialize a Recipe to a JSON string."""
return json.dumps(asdict(recipe), indent=2)
