Role Management
Customize roles to tailor LLM behavior, enhancing interaction efficiency and boosting productivity.
The role consists of a prompt and model configuration.
Session Management
Maintain context-aware conversations through sessions, ensuring continuity in interactions.
The left side uses a session, while the right side does not use a session.
RAG (Chat with your documents)
Integrate external documents into your LLM conversations for more accurate and contextually relevant responses.
Function Calling
Function calling supercharges LLMs by connecting them to external tools and data sources. This unlocks a world of possibilities, enabling LLMs to go beyond their core capabilities and tackle a wider range of tasks.
We have created a new repository https://github.com/sigoden/llm-functions to help you make the most of this feature.
AI Tools
Integrate external tools to automate tasks, retrieve information, and perform actions directly within your workflow.
AI Agents (CLI version of OpenAI GPTs)
AI Agent = Instructions (Prompt) + Tools (Function Callings) + Documents (RAG).
Local Server Capabilities
AIChat includes a lightweight built-in HTTP server for easy deployment.
