Message Limit

Limit the maximum number of visible chat messages to be sent per prompt. Does not include example messages, in-chat injections, etc.

How to use

1. Install the extension via the URL: https://github.com/SillyTavern/Extension-MessageLimit
2. Enable the extension in the extension settings menu. Set the message limit to your desired value (default: 10).
3. If you need to apply the message limit to background/quiet prompts (e.g. extensions, slash commands, etc.), enable the "Apply to background prompts" setting.
4. Optionally, adjust the "Messages to advance by" setting to control how many messages are removed at a time when trimming. Higher values keep the oldest messages constant longer, which helps with context caching (default: 1).
