# MatrixGPT

_ChatGPT bot for Matrix._

Uses code from [anoadragon453/nio-template](https://github.com/anoadragon453/nio-template).

## Install

```bash
sudo apt install libolm-dev gcc python3-dev
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

Copy `config.sample.yaml` to `config.yaml` and fill it out with your bot's auth and your OpenAI API key.

Then invite your bot and start a chat by prefixing your message with `!c`. The bot will create a thread (you don't need
to use `!c` in the thread).

I included a sample Systemd service.

## Use

Invite the bot to your room and query it with the command `!c` (this can be changed in the config.)

Don't try to use two bots in the same thread.

The bot can give helpful reactions:

- 🚫 means that the user is not allowed to chat with the bot.
- ❌ means the bot encountered an exception. The bot restarts when it encounters an exception which means it will not be able to respond
  for a short time after this reaction.
- ❌ 🔐 means there was a decryption failure.

## Encryption

This bot supports encryption. I recommend using [Pantalaimon](https://github.com/matrix-org/pantalaimon/) to manage encryption keys as the built-in solution is a little janky and may be unreliable.
