console.log(currentModel)

const currentChat = await chat.getNewChat("you are a drunk person") // optional if you want to set a system prompt
console.log(currentChat)

const tools = await chat.getToolList("1") // for the sake of not overloading the api the tools need to be called when needed also pass the page number more info : https://huggingface.co/chat/tools
console.log(tools)

let data  = await chat.chat("take screenshoot of this website : google.com", undefined, {
	tools:["000000000000000000000001","66e99753cb638fb7e2342da5"], // pass the tools id tools[0].id
	rawResponse:true
}); 

let  reader  =  data.stream.getReader();
while (true) {
	const  {  done,  value  }  =  await  reader.read();
	if (done) break;  // The streaming has ended.
	process.stdout.write(value)
}


data = await chat.chat("what is my name"); 
let response = await data.completeResponsePromise() //non streaming response 
console.log(response)

data = await chat.chat("what is my name", sessons[0].id); // using existing sessons
response = await data.completeResponsePromise()
console.log(response)



Note: Supported in node 18.x and higher.
