Hi, I am considering using BAML as part of an agentic ecosystem (with Agno) in Python. We want to use it purely for the templating rather than using client logic - as this is handled by Agno. We can use

baml.request.FunctionName

to get the full request, but this creates the whole request...we only want to use the prompt string. I don't suppose there's any way of getting hold of this rather than transforming the output manually. Transforming is a little brittle, as the output is different for each client.

sadly there's no way to provide just a prompt string as you're spot on. the transformation per client is just very brittle.

thanks, is it something that could go on the roadmap?

yep its on there 🙂 just need to figure out inheritance/compositioning first, but once that is designed, then the

prompt

type should be easy to build in!
