lmtk 0.4.32

Command line REPL for GPT-based tools

lmtk

Interactively play with GPT-based tools from the terminal

Description

(TODO: Update README with information about other modes, config profiles, scripting, JS sandbox, and Jupyter integration)

ChatGPT needs a power-user mode. lmtk gives you a terminal UI for interacting with ChatGPT and other GPT-based tools.

The default mode, synth-chat, uses a ChatGPT-like chatbot built directly from GPT-3. It supports features not possible with ChatGPT, including:

• Writing the prefix of the next response
• Giving instructions that will always be followed and never forgetten

This project is still in the early stages of development. It will have bugs and frequent breaking changes.

Install

For now, Python >=3.9 is required. Use pip3 instead of pip if necessary.

pip install -U lmtk[extras]

If you are having trouble with the TensorFlow dependency, you can exclude it:

pip install -U lmtk

This will disable automatic code syntax detection, but most lmtk modes are good about manual syntax annotation.

If you don't have an OpenAI API key create one here and set it:

export OPENAI_API_KEY="<your api key>"

Usage

lmtk @thread-name [-m mode-name]

Use lmtk modes to list available REPL modes and lmtk threads to list open threads.

Inside the REPL, type .help for a list of commands and keyboard shortcuts.

Tips

Conversation Seeds

Conversation seeds give you extremely strong influence over the chatbot's behavior.

.seed You must write your message using only lowercase letters

All future responses will only use lowercase letters (usually). Seeds are never forgotten. Seeds are best phrased as statements of fact or commands. See .help for examples.

Forced Response Prefix

If you aren't getting a response you like, you can directly specify how the next response must start using :>. For example, if you send:

Give me Pong in Pygame :> Here is the code:

Then the response will start with Here is the code:.

Useful Commands

See .help for a full list, but these are some particularly important commands:

• .clear or C-x + C-c to clear the screen
• .exit or C-d to exit the REPL
• .new or C-x + C-n to reset the thread
• .redo or C-x + C-r to resample the response
• .undo or C-x + C-u to rewrite your most recent message

Custom Modes

Add a Python file that looks like this to $LMTK_CONFIG_PATH/plugins/. By default this will be ~/.config/lmtk/plugins/.

See lmtk/modes for more complete examples.

Development

To install lmtk from source:

git clone [e-mail]:veered/lmtk.git
cd lmtk
pip install -U flit
flit install -s
