| # Setting up matrix-bot-chatgpt (optional)
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Note**: [matrix-chatgpt-bot](https://github.com/matrixgpt/matrix-chatgpt-bot) is now an archived (**unmaintained**) project. Talking to ChatGPT (and many other LLM providers) can happen via the much more featureful [baibot](https://github.com/etkecc/baibot), which can be installed using [this playbook](configuring-playbook-bot-baibot.md). Consider using that bot instead of this one.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The playbook can install and configure [matrix-chatgpt-bot](https://github.com/matrixgpt/matrix-chatgpt-bot) for you.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Talk to [ChatGPT](https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt/) via your favourite Matrix client!
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## 1. Register the bot account
 | |
| 
 | |
| The playbook does not automatically create users for you. The bot requires an access token to be able to connect to your homeserver.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You **need to register the bot user manually** before setting up the bot.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Choose a strong password for the bot. You can generate a good password with a command like this: `pwgen -s 64 1`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can use the playbook to [register a new user](registering-users.md):
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --extra-vars='username=bot.chatgpt password=PASSWORD_FOR_THE_BOT admin=no' --tags=register-user
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## 2. Get an access token and create encryption keys
 | |
| 
 | |
| Refer to the documentation on [how to obtain an access token](obtaining-access-tokens.md).
 | |
| 
 | |
| To make sure the bot can read encrypted messages, it will need an encryption key, just like any other new user. While obtaining the access token, follow the prompts to setup a backup key. More information can be found in the [element documentation](https://element.io/help#encryption6).
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## 3. Adjusting the playbook configuration
 | |
| 
 | |
| Add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file (adapt to your needs):
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| matrix_bot_chatgpt_enabled: true
 | |
| 
 | |
| # Obtain a new API key from https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys
 | |
| matrix_bot_chatgpt_openai_api_key: ''
 | |
| 
 | |
| # This is the default username
 | |
| # matrix_bot_chatgpt_matrix_bot_username_localpart: 'bot.chatgpt'
 | |
| 
 | |
| # Matrix access token (from bot user above)
 | |
| # see: https://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/131056/how-to-get-an-access-token-for-element-riot-matrix
 | |
| matrix_bot_chatgpt_matrix_access_token: ''
 | |
| 
 | |
| # Configuring the system promt used, needed if the bot is used for special tasks.
 | |
| # More information: https://github.com/mustvlad/ChatGPT-System-Prompts
 | |
| matrix_bot_chatgpt_matrix_bot_prompt_prefix: 'Instructions:\nYou are ChatGPT, a large language model trained by OpenAI.'
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| You will need to get tokens for ChatGPT.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## 4. Installing
 | |
| 
 | |
| After configuring the playbook, run the [installation](installing.md) command:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=install-all,start
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Usage
 | |
| 
 | |
| To use the bot, invite the `@bot.chatgpt:example.com` to the room you specified in a config, after that start speaking to it, use the prefix if you configured one or mention the bot.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can also refer to the upstream [documentation](https://github.com/matrixgpt/matrix-chatgpt-bot).
