# # 2. Creating Seeds Programmatically and with YAML
#
# Seeds are the fundamental data type PyRIT uses to initialize attacks and manage test content. Understanding how to create and work with seeds is essential for effective AI red teaming. This guide covers two primary approaches for defining seeds: programmatically (in code) and declaratively (using YAML files).
#
# ## Defining Seeds Programmatically
# ## Translating from Seeds for Attack Parameters
#
# Most [attacks](../executor/attack/0_attack.md) make use of several parameters.
#
# Most [attacks](../executor/attack/0_attack.md) require three key components:
# 1. An **objective** - what you're trying to achieve
# 2. A **seed group** - the content to send to the target
# 2. A **next_message** (optional) - the next message to send to the target
# 3. A **prepended conversation** (optional) - context to set up the attack
#
# While seeds are typically stored in the database for better management, this example demonstrates creating them manually to illustrate how the components work together:
# Attacks have a `from_seed_group` method that can extract these parameters from various ways from an `SeedAttackGroup`.
#
# While seeds are typically stored in the database or YAML for better management, this example demonstrates creating them manually to illustrate how the components work together - creating a multi-modal conversation with `SeedPrompts` and `SeedObjectives`.

To execute an Attack, one generally follows this pattern:
1. Create an **attack context** containing state information (i.e. attack objective, memory labels, prepended conversations, seed prompts)
2. Initialize an **attack strategy** (with optional **attack configurations** for converters, scorers, and adversarial chat targets)
3. _Execute_ the attack strategy with the created context
3. _Execute_ the attack strategy with the created context (which includes the objective and often optionally prepended_conversations and next_message)
4. Receive and process the **attack result**
