Usage

Text Completion

You have two options to communicate with your AI models;

  1. Click Alpaca Bot found in the admin menu, below Dashboard and above Posts.
  2. Use the shortcode [alpacabot] to generate a response within any post or page.

Agents

Use the [alpacabot_agent] shortcode to execute tasks on your behalf. Agents are a powerful way to empower your AI models to perform tasks on your behalf.

For example, you can use the [alpacabot_agent] shortcode to retrieve content from a remote source. [alpacabot_agent]s can interact directly with your models and help summarize a webpage or rewrite content.

Example

Basic webpage summarization:

[alpacabot_agent name=summarize model=tinyllama url=https://example.com/]
