On completion, it will automatically create the configuration file. Of course, you can also manually set the configuration file.
```yaml
model: openai:gpt-3.5-turbo # Choose a model

> You can use `.info` to view the current configuration file path and roles file path.
> You can use [Environment Variables](https://github.com/sigoden/aichat/wiki/Environment-Variables) to customize certain configuration items.
### 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).

### `.role` - let the AI play a role
Select a role:
```
〉.role emoji
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
```
AI takes the role we specified:
```
emoji〉hello
👋
```
Clear current selected role:
```
emoji〉.clear role
〉hello
Hello there! How can I assist you today?
```
## `.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
temp1 to 5, odd only 4089
1, 3, 5
tempto 7 4070
1, 3, 5, 7
temp.clear session
```
```sh
aichat --list-sessions # List sessions.
aichat -s # Start REPL with a new temp session
aichat -s temp # Use temp session
aichat -s temp --info # Show session details
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
```
