About PyGPT

PyGPT is very good for locally making API requests to AI APIs especially openAI based so that we can do:

General text query
Internet search based query where we give some web link that AI tool needs to access
Voice based input or output
Attachment (PDF etc.) based search to get response based on attached files
Image based search (Vision) to ask AI to look at image and reply
Get output via Image to ask AI to generate Image
Send emails based on AI requests
Repeat some AI queries at periodic interval via cron
Have separate searches group separately to access them later (Session history)
Run commands on local system and get their feed-back based on AI.

Installing PyGPT on Rocky 9.x

To install PyGPT on Rocky 9.x system use:

Install epel repository and snapd via epel repository:

sudo dnf install epel-release
sudo dnf upgrade
sudo yum install snapd

Start and enable snapd

sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap

Reboot the system so that snapd can see /snap path
```
shutdown -r now
```
Logout and relogin might also work but I always tried with reboot in past.
After reboot we can install pygpt via snap using:
```
sudo snap install pygpt
```
Configure API keys from ChatGPT. For this you must first create a login on https://platform.openai.com/docs/overview and buy at least 5 dollars of API credits via https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/billing/overview
Then generate API keys at https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys
From Plugins menu enable various plugins. Note that there is present option to quickly enable / disable a specific set of plugins via preset
Plugins dont work directly by enabling. At bottom right at top of System prompt enable tools. Then only the plugins work.
Try to send a command to pygpt to perform on local computer if "System(OS)" plugin is enabled and check whether it works. For example "How much RAM is free on this local computer?"
Do test various types of plugins and functionalities (Tabs) of PyGPT one by one. It takes some time to learn them but they all work and are useful. Keep an eye on API costs while using the tool.
