Model Settings

--model or -m

Specifies which language model to use. Check out the models section for a list of available models.

--fast or -f

Sets the model to gpt-3.5-turbo.

--local or -l

Run the model locally. Check the models page for more information.

--temperature or -t

Sets the randomness level of the model’s output.

--context_window or -c

Manually set the context window size in tokens for the model.

--max_tokens or -x

Sets the maximum number of tokens that the model can generate in a single response.

--max_output or -xo

Set the maximum number of characters for code outputs.

--api_base or -ab

If you are using a custom API, specify its base URL with this argument.

--api_key or -ak

Set your API key for authentication when making API calls.

--api_version or -av

Optionally set the API version to use with your selected model. (This will override environment variables)

--llm_supports_functions or -lsf

Inform Open Interpreter that the language model you’re using supports function calling.

--no-llm_supports_functions

Inform Open Interpreter that the language model you’re using does not support function calling.

--llm_supports_vision or -lsv

--custom_instructions or -ci

Appends custom instructions to the system message. This is useful for adding information about the your system, preferred languages, etc.
