Automated highlighting using AI / Local LLM

[paulpetro]

Using DEVONthink 4 AI, would it be possible to automate editing a MarkDown document to highlight the most relevant sentences in an article?

Under batch processing for example, there is an option to automate renaming, provide a summary in bullet points, or append Chat responses to an annotation. However I can’t seem to find instructions how to use the AI to edit documents themselves.

Example Prompt

Analyze the selected Markdown document and identify the 5-7 most significant sentences that encapsulate:  
1. Core arguments or findings  
2. Critical data points or statistics  
3. Pivotal transitional statements  

Format the output as follows:  
- Preserve original document structure  
- Enclose identified sentences within {== ==} markers  
- Maintain all existing formatting except highlighted sections  
- Do not add commentary or explanations  

Prioritize sentences that demonstrate:  
- Conceptual complexity  
- Methodological importance  
- Thematic centrality to the document's purpose

However I can’t seem to find instructions how to use the AI to edit documents themselves.

That’s only possible via the chat assistant (if enabled in the settings and supported by the model) or by using your own script:

on scriptOutput(theRecord, theInput)
	tell application id "DNtp"
		save version of record theRecord
		update record theRecord with text theInput mode replacing
	end tell
end scriptOutput

But I would highly recommend one of the better models like GPT-4o or Claude Sonnet.
