Magic commands can be used to control the interpreter’s behavior in interactive mode:

  • %% [shell commands, like ls or cd]: Run commands in Open Interpreter’s shell instance
  • %verbose [true/false]: Toggle verbose mode. Without arguments or with ‘true’, it enters verbose mode. With ‘false’, it exits verbose mode.
  • %reset: Reset the current session.
  • %undo: Remove previous messages and its response from the message history.
  • %save_message [path]: Saves messages to a specified JSON path. If no path is provided, it defaults to ‘messages.json’.
  • %load_message [path]: Loads messages from a specified JSON path. If no path is provided, it defaults to ‘messages.json’.
  • %tokens [prompt]: EXPERIMENTAL: Calculate the tokens used by the next request based on the current conversation’s messages and estimate the cost of that request; optionally provide a prompt to also calculate the tokens used by that prompt and the total amount of tokens that will be sent with the next request.
  • %info: Show system and interpreter information.
  • %help: Show this help message.
  • %jupyter: Export the current session to a Jupyter notebook file (.ipynb) to the Downloads folder.
  • %markdown [path]: Export the conversation to a specified Markdown path. If no path is provided, it will be saved to the Downloads folder with a generated conversation name.
