llm-alias-options

LLM plugin to save prompt options alongside an alias.

Built for llm version 0.28.

This plugin allows you to save default prompt options (like temperature, max_tokens, etc.) with an alias, so they are automatically applied when you use that alias.

Installation

Install this plugin in the same environment as LLM:

llm install llm-alias-options

Usage

You can save default prompt options with an alias using the -o or --option flag with llm aliases set:

llm aliases set creative gpt-4o -o temperature 0.9

Now, whenever you use the creative alias, the temperature=0.9 option will be applied automatically:

llm -m creative "Write a story"

The options you specify on the command line will override the saved alias options:

llm -m creative -o temperature 0.5 "Write a story"

Listing aliases with options

To see which aliases have options configured, use the --options flag:

llm aliases list --options

Or just:

llm aliases --options

Output:

creative: gpt-4o
  Options:
    temperature: 0.9

You can also get this information in JSON format:

llm aliases --options --json

How it works

This plugin monkeypatches the core llm alias handling to support a dictionary format in aliases.json. It also wraps the prompt and chat commands to intercept the model ID and inject the saved options before the command executes.
