# Intelligent Auto-Generation of Prompts for Preprocessing
## Overview
The new automatic prompt generation system for preprocessing uses local LLM models to analyze content and create optimal preprocessing instructions. This significantly improves data processing quality at minimal cost.
## Key Features
### 1. Intelligent Content Analysis
The system automatically analyzes input data using fast local models:
- **Content type analysis**: HTML, JSON, text
- **Structure detection**: tables, products, articles, data
- **Noise detection**: ads, navigation, scripts
- **Complexity assessment**: size, nesting, consistency
### 2. Local Model Priority
The system maximizes local model usage for savings:
**Priority order (default):**
1. `ollama:qwen2.5:7b` - fastest for preprocessing
2. `ollama:llama3.2:3b` - very fast, small model
3. `ollama:mistral:7b` - good balance
4. `ollama:llama3.1:8b` - stable choice
5. `jan:llama-3.2-3b` - JAN fallback
6. `jan:mistral-7b` - JAN alternative
### 3. Smart Auto-Trigger Thresholds
The system automatically determines when preprocessing is needed:
- **HTML**: >3KB (default) or presence of noise
- **Text**: >5KB (default) or formatting issues
- **JSON**: >1KB (default) or structure inconsistency
- **Any type**: >10KB automatically
### 4. Template Library
If intelligent analysis is unavailable, the system uses optimized templates:
- **HTML**: general, tables, products, articles
- **Text**: general, extraction, summarization
- **JSON**: general, tables, dates
## Configuration
### config/default.yaml
```yaml
llm:
autoPreprocess: true
preprocessing:
enabled: true # enable/disable preprocessing
intelligentMode: true # use LLM for analysis
fallbackToTemplates: true # fallback to templates
# Size thresholds for auto-trigger
thresholds:
html: 3000 # HTML larger than 3KB
text: 5000 # text larger than 5KB
json: 1000 # JSON larger than 1KB
# Model priority for preprocessing
preferredModels:
- "ollama:qwen2.5:7b" # fastest
- "ollama:llama3.2:3b" # very fast
- "ollama:mistral:7b" # balance
- "ollama:llama3.1:8b" # stable
- "jan:llama-3.2-3b" # JAN fallback
- "jan:mistral-7b" # JAN alternative
# Analysis settings
analysis:
maxContentSample: 1000 # max characters for analysis
maxAnalysisTokens: 300 # max analysis tokens
analysisTemperature: 0.1 # low temperature
```
## Usage Examples
### 1. Automatic Mode (Recommended)
```typescript
const result = await mcp.callTool('llm.transform', {
input: {
kind: 'html',
data: largeHtmlContent
},
instruction: 'Extract product information as JSON'
// preprocessRequest automatically generated
});
```
**What happens:**
1. System determines HTML >3KB needs preprocessing
2. Local model analyzes content (first 1000 characters)
3. Generates specific prompt: "Remove HTML noise: scripts, styles, navigation, ads, footers. Focus on product/item information, remove marketing fluff. Keep only content relevant to the main task."
4. Fast local model performs preprocessing
5. Main model processes cleaned data
### 2. Explicit Control
```typescript
const result = await mcp.callTool('llm.transform', {
input: { kind: 'html', data: htmlData },
instruction: 'Create product catalog',
preprocessRequest: 'Remove all non-product elements, focus on titles, prices, descriptions'
});
```
### 3. Disable Preprocessing
```typescript
// In configuration
preprocessing: {
enabled: false
}
// Or only intelligent mode
preprocessing: {
intelligentMode: false,
fallbackToTemplates: true
}
```
## System Architecture
### 1. Preprocessing Need Detector
- Analyzes content size
- Checks for HTML noise
- Detects text formatting issues
- Evaluates JSON structure consistency
### 2. Intelligent Prompt Generator
- Uses local model for content analysis
- Creates customized preprocessing instructions
- Adapts to task type (extraction, cleaning, structuring)
### 3. Fallback System
- Automatic fallback to templates on failures
- Graceful functionality degradation
- Logging of all stages for debugging
### 4. Local Model Manager
- Prioritization by speed/efficiency
- Automatic selection of available model
- Support for Ollama and JAN providers
## Performance and Savings
### Example: E-commerce Site Processing
**Without preprocessing:**
- Input data: 50KB HTML with navigation, ads, comments
- Tokens: ~12,500 (OpenAI pricing)
- Cost: ~$0.125 (GPT-4)
- Quality: low (much noise)
**With intelligent preprocessing:**
- Content analysis: ollama:qwen2.5:7b (~200 tokens, free)
- Preprocessing: ollama:qwen2.5:7b (~3000 tokens, free)
- Main processing: 5KB cleaned data (~1,250 tokens)
- Cost: ~$0.012 (only for main processing)
- **Savings: 90%** + significantly better quality
### Execution Time
- **Analysis**: 0.5-1 sec (local model)
- **Preprocessing**: 2-5 sec (local model)
- **Main processing**: 3-8 sec (target model)
- **Total time**: +20-30% for 90% savings and better quality
## Monitoring and Debugging
### Logging
The system logs all stages:
```json
{
"level": "info",
"msg": "Auto-generated intelligent preprocessing request",
"autoGeneratedPreprocess": "Remove HTML noise: scripts, styles, navigation, ads, footers. Focus on product/item information, remove marketing fluff. Keep only content relevant to the main task."
}
{
"level": "info",
"msg": "Preprocessing completed",
"originalLength": 51200,
"processedLength": 5800,
"preprocessRequest": "..."
}
{
"level": "debug",
"msg": "Selected Ollama model for preprocessing",
"model": "ollama:qwen2.5:7b",
"modelType": "Ollama"
}
```
### Debugging
For detailed analysis, set logging level:
```yaml
logging:
level: debug
```
