Chat from the terminal

Start an interactive terminal conversation:


cmdop chat

Send one prompt without opening the interactive interface:


cmdop chat --prompt "Summarize this repository"

In a real terminal the interactive interface opens by default; when input is piped, or when you pass -p, a single-prompt run is used instead.

Option	Purpose
`-p`, `--prompt <text>`	Send one prompt in non-interactive mode.
`--plain`	Force line-based single-prompt mode even in a terminal.
`--cwd <directory>`	Root the agent’s file sandbox at this directory. Defaults to the current directory.
`--model <model>`	Choose a model. Default `auto` — the relay picks.
`--tools full\|coding\|minimal`	Select a tool profile. Default `full`.
`--repo`	Push the whole workspace into the first turn, for coding sessions. Without it the agent reads and greps on demand.
`-c`, `--continue`	Continue the most recently active conversation.
`--resume <id>`	Resume a conversation by ID.
`-m`, `--machine <name>`	Address a joined machine’s agent by display name, unique prefix, or ID.
`--style <name>`	Chat personality style.
`--system <text>`	Custom system prompt.
`--no-menu`	Skip the start menu and go straight into the conversation.

Use cmdop models to see the current default model, and cmdop fleet for a picker over the machines you can address with --machine.
