5. Resending Prompts Using Memory Labels Example

Memory labels are a free-from dictionary for tagging prompts for easier querying and scoring later on. The GLOBAL_MEMORY_LABELS environment variable can be set to apply labels (e.g. operator and operation) to all prompts sent by any attack. Passed-in labels will be combined with GLOBAL_MEMORY_LABELS into one dictionary. In the case of collisions, the passed-in labels take precedence.

You can then query the database (either AzureSQL or SQLite) for prompts with specific labels, such as operator and/or operation (which are standard), as well as any others you’d like, including harm_category, language, technique, etc.

We take the following steps in this example:

  1. Send prompts to a text target using PromptSendingAttack, passing in memory_labels to the execution function.

  2. Retrieve these prompts by querying for the corresponding memory label(s).

  3. Resend the retrieved prompts.

Because you have labeled group1, you can retrieve these prompts later. For example, you could score them as shown here. Or you could resend them as shown below; this script will resend any prompts with the label regardless of modality.
