Chat TUI

openkb chat is an interactive REPL over your wiki. Unlike query (one-shot), a chat session keeps context across turns, can edit the KB through slash commands, and is saved so you can resume it later.

openkb chat
OpenKB Chat
~/research-kb · anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6 · session 20260625-143022-a1x
Type /help for commands, Ctrl-D to exit, Ctrl-C to abort the current response.
>>> How do the two papers differ on their use of attention?
Both rely on scaled dot-product attention, but…
· read_wiki_file(path="concepts/self-attention.md")
· read_wiki_file(path="summaries/deepseek-r1.md")
>>> /save attention-comparison
Saved to wiki/explorations/attention-comparison-20260625.md

Answers are grounded in your wiki: the agent reads concepts/, summaries/, entities/, and source files, and shows the tool calls it makes. Responses render as rich Markdown (headings, tables, code) in a terminal.


Persistent sessions

Every conversation is stored as JSON in <kb>/.openkb/chats/. Manage them with:

openkb chat --list # table of sessions: id · turns · updated · title
openkb chat --resume # resume the most recent session
openkb chat --resume 20260625 # resume by id or unique prefix
openkb chat --delete 20260625 # delete a session

Resuming replays the last few turns so you have context:

$ openkb chat --resume
Resumed session · 4 turn(s)
[3] >>> How do the two papers differ on their use of attention?
[3] Both rely on scaled dot-product attention, but…
[4] >>> /save attention-comparison

Slash commands

Inside the REPL, lines starting with / are commands rather than questions. Run /help to see the current set; the built-ins are:

CommandWhat it does
/helpList available commands
/exit, /quitLeave the REPL (Ctrl-D also works)
/clearStart a fresh session (the previous one is saved)
/save [name]Export the transcript to wiki/explorations/<name>-<date>.md
/statusShow KB status without leaving chat
/listList documents in the KB
/lintRun the integrity + knowledge lint
/add <path>Ingest a file or directory (Tab-completes paths)
/skill new <name> "<intent>"Compile a skill from the wiki — see skills/
/deck new [--critique] [--skill <name>] <name> "<intent>"Generate an HTML deck — see slides/
/critique <path>Run the HTML critic over an existing deck/page

Slash commands run inline — errors are reported and the conversation continues; Ctrl-C aborts the running command without ending the session.

Why slash commands matter

They turn chat into a workbench: ask a question, realize you're missing a source, /add it, and keep going — all in one session. Because the chat agent can write to wiki/explorations/** and output/**, asking it to "write that up as a note" or "turn this into a skill" produces real files you keep.


Plain output for piping or logs

openkb chat --no-color # disable colored output entirely
openkb chat --raw # show raw Markdown source, keep prompt/tool colors

--no-color also respects the NO_COLOR environment variable.

Answers are grounded in your wiki: the agent reads concepts/, summaries/, entities/, and source files, and shows the tool calls it makes. Responses render as rich Markdown (headings, tables, code) in a terminal.


Persistent sessions

Every conversation is stored as JSON in <kb>/.openkb/chats/. Manage them with:

openkb chat --list # table of sessions: id · turns · updated · title
openkb chat --resume # resume the most recent session
openkb chat --resume 20260625 # resume by id or unique prefix
openkb chat --delete 20260625 # delete a session

Resuming replays the last few turns so you have context:

$ openkb chat --resume
Resumed session · 4 turn(s)
[3] >>> How do the two papers differ on their use of attention?
[3] Both rely on scaled dot-product attention, but…
[4] >>> /save attention-comparison

Slash commands

Inside the REPL, lines starting with / are commands rather than questions. Run /help to see the current set; the built-ins are:

CommandWhat it does
/helpList available commands
/exit, /quitLeave the REPL (Ctrl-D also works)
/clearStart a fresh session (the previous one is saved)
/save [name]Export the transcript to wiki/explorations/<name>-<date>.md
/statusShow KB status without leaving chat
/listList documents in the KB
/lintRun the integrity + knowledge lint
/add <path>Ingest a file or directory (Tab-completes paths)
/skill new <name> "<intent>"Compile a skill from the wiki — see skills/
/deck new [--critique] [--skill <name>] <name> "<intent>"Generate an HTML deck — see slides/
/critique <path>Run the HTML critic over an existing deck/page

Slash commands run inline — errors are reported and the conversation continues; Ctrl-C aborts the running command without ending the session.

Why slash commands matter

They turn chat into a workbench: ask a question, realize you're missing a source, /add it, and keep going — all in one session. Because the chat agent can write to wiki/explorations/** and output/**, asking it to "write that up as a note" or "turn this into a skill" produces real files you keep.


Plain output for piping or logs

openkb chat --no-color # disable colored output entirely
openkb chat --raw # show raw Markdown source, keep prompt/tool colors

--no-color also respects the NO_COLOR environment variable.

Chat TUI

openkb chat is an interactive REPL over your wiki. Unlike query (one-shot), a chat session keeps context across turns, can edit the KB through slash commands, and is saved so you can resume it later.
