Running the application

Start up

When the application starts up, it will ask you what agent you want to speak with. You can save common persons with a preconditioned prompt here. e.g.:

• Personal travel agent: A chat gpt assistant that recomends things to do within your interests
• Python docstring writer
• Personal car mechanic advisor
• etc

Key Bindings

esc puts you into vim cmd mode. i or a puts you back into insert mode. pressing v in cmd mode will open a vim editor so you and write multi-line prompts with full key bindings.

Note: There are some limitations with the vim key bindings. I've found I need to press esc twice or there is a long delay for entering into cmd mode.

Roadmap

• Add vim key bindings to prompt input
• Open vim for multi line prompts
• Support multi key vim keybindings. e.g. dd ciw
• Initialize conversations from different common personas. e.g. travel agent
• Save conversations to a database
• Output running cost of the conversation
• Publish to PyPi
