Fabric

Fabric is an open-source AI prompt orchestration framework by Daniel Miessler. It provides a library of reusable AI prompts called Patterns — each designed for a specific real-world task — wired into a simple Unix pipeline with stdin/stdout.

When to use this skill

• Summarize or extract insights from YouTube videos, articles, or documents
• Apply any of 250+ pre-built AI patterns to content via Unix piping
• Route different patterns to different AI providers (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, etc.)
• Create custom patterns for repeatable AI workflows
• Run Fabric as a REST API server for integration with other tools
• Process command output, files, or clipboard content through AI patterns
• Use as an AI agent utility — pipe any tool output through patterns for intelligent summarization
