Qu’est-ce que l’enchaînement d’invites ?

Qu’est-ce que le chaînage d’invites ?

Un exemple simple de chaînage

import anthropic

client = anthropic.Anthropic(api_key='YOUR_API_KEY')

def call(prompt):
    r = client.messages.create(
        model='claude-opus-4-5',
        max_tokens=1000,
        messages=[{'role': 'user', 'content': prompt}]
    )
    return r.content[0].text

# Step 1: Generate outline
outline = call('Create a 5-point outline for a blog post about prompt engineering for beginners.')

# Step 2: Expand outline into draft
draft = call(f'Write a full blog post based on this outline:\n\n{outline}')

# Step 3: Edit for clarity
final = call(f'Edit this blog post for clarity and conciseness. Remove jargon:\n\n{draft}')

print(final[:500])

Quand le chaînage est utile : complexité de la tâche

Quand le chaînage est utile : la qualité par la spécialisation

# Each step uses a prompt optimized for its role

step1_prompt_template = '''
<task>Extract all named entities from the text below. Return JSON:
{"people": [], "companies": [], "locations": []}</task>
<text>{text}</text>
'''

step2_prompt_template = '''
<task>For each company in the list below, classify it as:
startup, enterprise, government, or nonprofit.
Return JSON: [{"company": str, "type": str}]</task>
<companies>{companies}</companies>
'''

# Each prompt is simpler, more focused, and easier to debug
# than a single prompt trying to do both tasks at once.
print('Specialized prompts per step.')

Quand le chaînage est utile : limites des fenêtres de contexte

def map_reduce_summarize(document, chunk_size=3000):

    # Map: summarize each chunk
    summaries = []
    for i, chunk in enumerate(chunks):
        summary = call(f'Summarize this section of a document in 3 bullet points:\n\n{chunk}')
        summaries.append(summary)

    # Reduce: synthesize all summaries
    combined = '\n\n'.join(f'Section {i+1}:\n{s}' for i, s in enumerate(summaries))
    final = call(f'Combine these section summaries into a single executive summary:\n\n{combined}')
    return final

Chaînes synchrones et parallèles

import concurrent.futures

def parallel_step(topics):
    # Each topic can be researched in parallel — they do not depend on each other
    def research_topic(topic):
        return call(f'List 5 key facts about: {topic}')

    with concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor() as executor:
        results = list(executor.map(research_topic, topics))

    # Then synthesize in a sequential step
    combined = '\n\n'.join(f'{t}:\n{r}' for t, r in zip(topics, results))
    synthesis = call(f'Write a comparative analysis of these topics:\n\n{combined}')
    return synthesis

print('Parallel steps can reduce total latency.')

Chaîne concrète : analyse concurrentielle

def competitive_analysis_chain(competitor_list, product_description):
    # Step 1: Research each competitor (parallel)
    def research(competitor):
        return call(f'List key features, pricing model, and target market for: {competitor}')

    with concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor() as ex:

    # Step 2: Compare against our product
