Usage

Here’s an example of a conversational assistant that remember’s the user’s previous messages: 
import {
  Chat,
  // import conversation state management functions
  getConversationState,
  setConversationState,
} from "@palico-ai/app";

const handler: Chat = async ({
  conversationId,
  isNewConversation,
  userMessage,
}) => {
  let state: {
    messages: OpenAIMessage[];
  };
  // create or restore conversation state
  if (isNewConversation) {
    state = { messages: [] };
  } else {
    state = await getConversationState(conversationId);
  }

  // add user message to conversation state and call LLM
  state.messages.push({ role: "user", content: userMessage });
  const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
    model: "gpt-3.5-turbo-0125",
    messages: state.messages,
  });
  const responseMessage = response.choices[0].message.content;
  // add agent message to conversation state
  state.messages.push({ role: "agent", content: responseMessage });

  // save conversation state
  await setConversationState(conversationId, state);
  return { message: responseMessage };
};
