```yaml

temperature: 1.0 # optional, see https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/chat/create#chat/create-temperature
save: true # optional, If set true, aichat will save chat messages to message.md
highlight: true # optional, Set false to turn highlight
proxy: "socks5://127.0.0.1:1080" # optional, set proxy server. e.g. http://127.0.0.1:8080 or socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
conversation_first: false # optional, If set true, start a conversation immediately upon repl

> You can use `.info` to view the current configuration file path and roles file path.
> You can use [Enviroment Variables](https://github.com/sigoden/aichat/wiki/Environment-Variables) to customize certain configuration items.
### Roles
We can let ChatGPT play a certain role through `prompt` to make it better generate what we want.
We can predefine a batch of roles in `roles.yaml`.
> We can get the location of `roles.yaml` through the `.info` command.
For example, we 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.
# temperature: 0.3
```
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
---
```
We have provided many [Role Examples](https://github.com/sigoden/aichat/wiki/Role-Examples).

## Chat REPL
aichat has a powerful Chat REPL.
The Chat REPL supports:
- Emacs keybinding
- Command autocompletion
- History search
- Fish-style history autosuggestion hints
- Edit/past multiline input
- Undo support
- Clipboard integration
### multi-line editing mode
**Type `{` or `(` at the beginning of the line to enter the multi-line editing mode.** In this mode you can type or paste multiple lines of text. Type the corresponding `}` or `)` at the end of the line to exit the mode and submit the content.
```
〉{ convert json below to toml
{
"an": [
"arbitrarily",
"nested"
],
"data": "structure"
}}
```
### `.help` - Print help message

conversation_first false
light_theme false
dry_run false
```
### `.set` - modify the configuration temporarily
```
〉.set highlight false
〉.set save false
〉.set temperature 1.2
```
### `.prompt` - use GPT prompt
When you set up a prompt, every message sent later will carry the prompt.
```
〉{ .prompt
I want you to translate the sentences I wrote into emojis.
I will write the sentence, and you will express it with emojis.
I just want you to express it with emojis.
I want you to reply only with emojis.
}
Done
〉You are a genius
👉🧠💡👨‍🎓
〉I'm embarrassed
🙈😳
```
`.prompt` actually creates a temporary role called `%TEMP%` internally, so **run `.clear role` to clear the prompt**.
When you are satisfied with the prompt, add it to `roles.yaml` for later use.
### `.role` - let the ai play a role
Select a role.
```
〉.role emoji
name: emoji
prompt: I want you to translate the sentences I wrote 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
```
AI play the role we specified
```
emoji〉hello
👋
```
Clear current selected role
```
emoji〉.clear role
〉hello
Hello there! How can I assist you today?
```
### `.conversation` - start a context-aware conversation
By default, aichat behaves in a one-off request/response manner.
You can run `.conversation` to enter context-aware mode, or set `config.conversation_first` true to start a conversation immediately upon repl.
```
〉.conversation
list 1 to 5, one per line 4089
1
2
3
4
5
reverse the list 4065
5
4
3
2
1
.clear conversation 4043
```
When enter conversation mode, prompt `〉` will change to ``, A number will appear on the right, which means how many tokens left to use.
Once the number becomes zero, you need to start a new conversation.
