Overview

Concrete tool for loading JSON configuration files provided by the OpenPromptInjection utility module.

Description

The open_config function reads a JSON file from disk and returns its contents as a Python dictionary. It is the entry point for all configuration-driven components in the experiment pipeline, used to load model configs, task configs, and API key information.

Usage

Import this function whenever you need to load a model or task configuration file at the start of an experiment. It is called before any factory function (create_model, create_task, etc.).
