AIChat in chat REPL mode: ![chat mode](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/4012553/226499667-4c6b261a-d897-41c7-956b-979b69da5982.gif) AIChat in command mode: ![command mode](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/4012553/226499595-0b536c82-b039-4571-a077-0c40ad57f7db.png) ## Install ### With package management tools For Rust programmer ```sh cargo install aichat ``` For macOS Homebrew or a Linuxbrew user ```sh brew install aichat ``` For Windows Scoop user ```sh scoop install aichat ``` For Arch Linux use ```sh sudo pacman -S ripgrep ``` For Android termux user ```sh pkg install aichat ``` ### Binaries for macOS, Linux, Windows Download it from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/sigoden/aichat/releases), unzip and add aichat to your $PATH. ## Support Models - [x] OpenAI: gpt-3.5/gpt-4/gpt-4-vision - [x] LocalAI: user deployed opensource LLMs - [x] Azure-OpenAI: user created gpt3.5/gpt4 - [x] PaLM: chat-bison-001 - [x] Ernie: ernie-bot-turbo/ernie-bot/ernie-bot-8k/ernie-bot-4 - [x] Qianwen: qwen-turbo/qwen-plus/qwen-max ## Features - With two modes: [chat REPL](#chat-repl) and [command](#command). - Use [Roles](#roles) - Support vision - Context-aware conversation/session - Syntax highlighting markdown and 200 other languages - Stream output with hand-typing effect - Support proxy - Dark/light theme - Save messages/sessions ## Config On first launch, aichat will guide you through the configuration. ``` > No config file, create a new one? Yes > AI Platform: openai > API Key: sk-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ``` Feel free to adjust the configuration according to your needs. ```yaml model: openai:gpt-3.5-turbo # LLM model temperature: 1.0 # GPT temperature, between 0 and 2 save: true # Whether to save the message highlight: true # Set false to turn highlight light_theme: false # Whether to use a light theme wrap: no # Specify the text-wrapping mode (no, auto, ) wrap_code: false # Whether wrap code block auto_copy: false # Automatically copy the last output to the clipboard keybindings: emacs # REPL keybindings. values: emacs, vi prelude: '' # Set a default role or session (role:, session:) clients: - type: openai api_key: sk-xxx organization_id: - type: localai api_base: http://localhost:8080/v1 models: - name: gpt4all-j max_tokens: 8192 ``` Take a look at the [config.example.yaml](config.example.yaml) for the complete configuration details. There are some configurations that can be set through environment variables. For more information, please refer to the [Environment Variables](https://github.com/sigoden/aichat/wiki/Environment-Variables) page. ### Roles We can define a batch of roles in `roles.yaml`. > We can get the location of `roles.yaml` through the repl's `.info` command or cli's `--info` option. For example, we can define a role: ```yaml - name: shell prompt: > I want you to act as a Linux shell expert. I want you to answer only with bash code. Do not provide explanations. ``` Let ChatGPT answer questions in the role of a Linux shell expert. ``` 〉.role shell shell〉 extract encrypted zipfile app.zip to /tmp/app mkdir /tmp/app unzip -P PASSWORD app.zip -d /tmp/app ``` AIChat with roles will be a universal tool. ``` $ aichat --role shell extract encrypted zipfile app.zip to /tmp/app unzip -P password app.zip -d /tmp/app $ cat README.md | aichat --role spellcheck ``` For more details about roles, please visit [Role Guide](https://github.com/sigoden/aichat/wiki/Role-Guide). ## Chat REPL aichat has a powerful Chat REPL. The Chat REPL supports: - Emacs/Vi keybinding - Command autocompletion - Edit/paste multiline input - Undo support ### `.help` - print help message ``` 〉.help .help Print this help message .info Print system info .model Switch LLM model .role Use a role .info role Show role info .exit role Leave current role .session Start a context-aware chat session .info session Show session info .exit session End the current session .file Attach files to the message and then submit it .set Modify the configuration parameters .copy Copy the last reply to the clipboard .exit Exit the REPL Type ::: to begin multi-line editing, type ::: to end it. Press Ctrl+C to abort readline, Ctrl+D to exit the REPL ``` ### `.info` - view information ``` 〉.info model openai:gpt-3.5-turbo temperature - dry_run false save true highlight true light_theme false wrap no wrap_code false auto_copy false keybindings emacs prelude - config_file /home/alice/.config/aichat/config.yaml roles_file /home/alice/.config/aichat/roles.yaml messages_file /home/alice/.config/aichat/messages.md sessions_dir /home/alice/.config/aichat/sessions ``` ### `.model` - choose a model ``` > .model openai:gpt-4 > .model localai:gpt4all-j ``` > You can easily enter enter model name using autocomplete. ### `.role` - let the AI play a role Select a role: ``` 〉.role emoji ``` Send message with the role: ``` emoji〉hello 👋 ``` Leave current role: ``` emoji〉.exit role 〉hello Hello there! How can I assist you today? ``` Show role info: ``` emoji〉.info role name: emoji prompt: I want you to translate the sentences I write into emojis. I will write the sentence, and you will express it with emojis. I just want you to express it with emojis. I don't want you to reply with anything but emoji. When I need to tell you something in English, I will do it by wrapping it in curly brackets like {like this}. temperature: null ``` Temporarily use a role to send a message. ``` 〉::: .role emoji hello world ::: 👋🌍 〉 ``` ### `.session` - context-aware conversation By default, aichat behaves in a one-off request/response manner. You should run aichat with `-s/--session` or use the `.session` command to start a session. ``` 〉.session temp）1 to 5, odd only 0 1, 3, 5 temp）to 7 19(0.46%) 1, 3, 5, 7 temp）.exit session 42(1.03%) ? Save session? (y/N) ``` The prompt on the right side is about the current usage of tokens and the proportion of tokens used, compared to the maximum number of tokens allowed by the model. ### `.file` - attach files to the message ``` Usage: .file ... [-- text...] .file message.txt .file config.yaml -- convert to toml .file a.jpg b.jpg -- What’s in these images? .file https://ibb.co/a.png https://ibb.co/b.png -- what is the difference? ``` > Only the current model that supports vision can process images submitted through `.file` command. ### `.set` - modify the configuration temporarily ``` 〉.set temperature 1.2 〉.set dry_run true 〉.set highlight false 〉.set save false 〉.set auto_copy true ``` ## Command ``` Usage: aichat [OPTIONS] [TEXT]... Arguments: [TEXT]... Input text Options: -m, --model Choose a LLM model -r, --role Choose a role -s, --session [] Create or reuse a session -f, --file ... Attach files to the message to be sent -H, --no-highlight Disable syntax highlighting -S, --no-stream No stream output -w, --wrap Specify the text-wrapping mode (no*, auto, ) --light-theme Use light theme --dry-run Run in dry run mode --info Print related information --list-models List all available models --list-roles List all available roles --list-sessions List all available sessions -h, --help Print help -V, --version Print version ``` Here are some practical examples: ```sh aichat -s # Start REPL with a new temp session aichat -s temp # Reuse temp session aichat -r shell -s # Create a session with a role aichat -m openai:gpt-4-32k -s # Create a session with a model aichat -s sh unzip a file # Run session in command mode aichat -r shell unzip a file # Use role in command mode aichat -s shell unzip a file # Use session in command mode cat config.json | aichat convert to yaml # Read stdin cat config.json | aichat -r convert:yaml # Read stdin with a role cat config.json | aichat -s i18n # Read stdin with a session aichat --file a.png b.png -- diff images # Attach files aichat --file screenshot.png -r ocr # Attach files with a role aichat --list-models # List all available models aichat --list-roles # List all available roles aichat --list-sessions # List all available models aichat --info # system-wide information aichat -s temp --info # Show session details aichat -r shell --info # Show role info $(echo "$data" | aichat -S -H to json) # Use aichat in a script ``` ## License Copyright (c) 2023 aichat-developers. aichat is made available under the terms of either the MIT License or the Apache License 2.0, at your option.
