Promptheus

Refine and optimize prompts for LLMs

<!-- mcp-name: io.github.abhichandra21/promptheus -->

Quick Start

pip install promptheus
# Interactive session
promptheus

# Single prompt
promptheus "Write a technical blog post"

# Skip clarifying questions
promptheus -s "Explain Kubernetes"

# Use web UI
promptheus web

Python library usage

from promptheus import refine_prompt

result = refine_prompt("Write a technical blog post", skip_questions=True)
print(result["refined_prompt"])

If you're already in an async application (e.g., FastAPI), call refinepromptasync instead of the sync helper.

What is Promptheus?

Promptheus analyzes your prompts and refines them with:

  • Adaptive questioning: Smart detection of what information you need to provide
  • Multi-provider support: Works with Google, OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, Qwen, and more
  • Interactive refinement: Iteratively improve outputs through natural conversation
  • Session history: Automatically track and reuse past prompts
  • CLI and Web UI: Use from terminal or browser

Supported Providers

OpenRouter integration in Promptheus is optimized around the openrouter/auto routing model:

  • Model listing is intentionally minimal: Promptheus does not expose your full OpenRouter account catalog.
  • You can still specify a concrete model manually with OPENROUTER_MODEL or --model if your key has access.

Core Features

🧠 Adaptive Task Detection Automatically detects whether your task needs refinement or direct optimization

⚡ Interactive Refinement Ask targeted questions to elicit requirements and improve outputs

📝 Pipeline Integration Works seamlessly in Unix pipelines and shell scripts

🔄 Session Management Track, load, and reuse past prompts automatically

📊 Telemetry & Analytics Anonymous usage and performance metrics tracking for insights (local storage only, can be disabled)

🌐 Web Interface Beautiful UI for interactive prompt refinement and history management
