Interactive Mode（Beta）
Note: Interactive mode is currently in beta. While fully functional, you may encounter unexpected behavior. We appreciate your feedback as we continue to improve this experience.
Use this guide to launch aigne web chat, speak to WebSmith in natural language, and let the assistant trigger generate/update/publish actions on your behalf.
The chat command provides an interactive, conversational interface for building and managing your website. Instead of running individual commands like generate or update, you can describe your needs in plain language, and the AI assistant will guide you through the process. This is an ideal starting point for users who prefer a more guided experience.
How It Works#
Interactive mode is powered by a dedicated AI agent that understands your requests and can use other WebSmith tools to perform tasks. It maintains a memory of your conversation, allowing you to make sequential changes and build on previous actions.
The general workflow follows a simple, conversational loop:
Starting an Interactive Session#
To begin, run the chat command from your terminal:
Command
aigne webThis will launch the assistant, which will greet you and wait for your instructions.
What You Can Do#
The chat assistant can perform most of the core tasks available in the AIGNE WebSmith CLI. You can simply ask it to:
- Generate a new website: Describe your website requirements, target audience, and desired style.
- Update existing content: Specify which page or section you want to change and provide the new details.
- Translate pages: Request translation of specific pages into another language.
- Publish your site: Tell the assistant you're ready to publish your website to Pages Kit.
- Manage files: Ask to see the current file structure or content of a specific page.
Example Conversation#
Here is an example of how you might use interactive mode to create, modify, and publish a simple website.
