Updates

2023-10-14 This repo has been forked from [waylaidwanderer/node-chatgpt-api](https://github.com/waylaidwanderer/node-chatgpt-api) for active maintenance.
2023-03-01

Support for the official ChatGPT model has been added! You can now use the gpt-3.5-turbo model with the official OpenAI API, using ChatGPTClient. This is the same model that ChatGPT uses, and it's the most powerful model available right now. Usage of this model is not free, however it is 10x cheaper (priced at $0.002 per 1k tokens) than text-davinci-003.

See OpenAI's post, Introducing ChatGPT and Whisper APIs for more information.

To use it, set modelOptions.model to gpt-3.5-turbo, and ChatGPTClient will handle the rest. The default model used in ChatGPTClient is now gpt-3.5-turbo. You can still set userLabel, chatGptLabel and promptPrefix (system instructions) as usual.

There may be a higher chance of your account being banned if you continue to automate chat.openai.com. Continue doing so at your own risk.

Previous Updates
2023-02-19

I've added an experimental ChatGPTBrowserClient which depends on a reverse proxy server that makes use of a Cloudflare bypass, allowing you to talk to ChatGPT (chat.openai.com) without requiring browser automation. All you need is your access token from https://chat.openai.com/api/auth/session.

As always, please note that if you choose to go this route, you are exposing your access token to a closed-source third-party server. If you are concerned about this, you may choose to either use a free ChatGPT account to minimize risks, or continue using ChatGPTClient instead with the text-davinci-003 model.

2023-02-15

The method we were using to access the ChatGPT underlying models has been patched, unfortunately. Your options right now are to either use the official OpenAI API with the text-davinci-003 model (which costs money), or use a browser-based solution to interface with ChatGPT's backend (which is less powerful, more rate-limited and is not supported by this library at this time).

2023-02-11

With the help of @PawanOsman, we've figured out a way to continue using the ChatGPT underlying models. To hopefully prevent losing access again, we've decided to provide reverse proxy servers compatible with the OpenAI API. I've updated ChatGPTClient to support using a reverse proxy server instead of the OpenAI API server. See Using a Reverse Proxy for more information on available proxy servers and how they work.

Please note that if you choose to go this route, you are exposing your access token to a closed-source third-party server. If you are concerned about this, you may choose to either use a free ChatGPT account to minimize risks, or continue using the official OpenAI API instead with the text-davinci-003 model.

2023-02-10

I've found a new working model for text-chat-davinci-002, text-chat-davinci-002-sh-alpha-aoruigiofdj83. This is the underlying model that the ChatGPT Plus "Turbo" version uses. Responses are blazing fast. I've updated the library to use this model.

Bad timing; text-chat-davinci-002-sh-alpha-aoruigiofdj83 was removed shortly after, possibly due to a new model somewhere out there?

2023-02-09

Experience the power of Bing's GPT-4 version of ChatGPT with BingAIClient (experimental). The API server and CLI still need to be updated to support this, but you can use the client directly right now. Please note that if your account is still wait-listed, you will not be able to use this client.

2023-02-08

Even though text-chat-davinci-002-20221122 is back up again, it seems like it's constantly overloaded and returns a 429 error. It's likely that OpenAI only dedicated a small amount of resources to this model to prevent it being widely used by the public. Additionally, I've heard that newer versions are now access-locked to OpenAI employees and partners, so it's unlikely that we'll be able to find any workarounds until the model is officially released.

You may use the text-davinci-003 model instead as a drop-in replacement. Keep in mind that text-davinci-003 is not as good as text-chat-davinci-002 (which is trained via RHLF and fine-tuned to be a conversational AI), though results are still pretty good in most cases. Please note that using text-davinci-003 will cost you credits ($).

I will be re-adding support for the browser-based ChatGPT for the API server and CLI. Please star and watch this repository for updates.

2023-02-07

The roller coaster has reached the next stop. text-chat-davinci-002-20221122 is back up again.

Trying to use text-chat-davinci-002-20221122 with the OpenAI API now returns a 404 error. You may use the text-davinci-003 model instead as a drop-in replacement. Keep in mind that text-davinci-003 is not as good as text-chat-davinci-002 (which is trained via RHLF and fine-tuned to be a conversational AI), though results are still very good. Please note that using text-davinci-003 will cost you credits ($).

Please hold for further updates as we investigate further workarounds.

2023-02-02

Trying to use text-chat-davinci-002-20230126 with the OpenAI API now returns a 404 error. Someone has already found the new model name, but they are unwilling to share at this time. I will update this repository once I find the new model. If you have any leads, please open an issue or a pull request.

In the meantime, I've added support for models like text-davinci-003, which you can use as a drop-in replacement. Keep in mind that text-davinci-003 is not as good as text-chat-davinci-002 (which is trained via RHLF and fine-tuned to be a conversational AI), though results are still very good. Please note that using text-davinci-003 will cost you credits ($).

Discord user @pig#8932 has found a working text-chat-davinci-002 model, text-chat-davinci-002-20221122. I've updated the library to use this model.

  3. Rename settings.example.js to settings.js in the root directory and change the settings where required.
  4. Start the server:
    • using npm start or npm run server (if not using Docker)
    • using docker-compose up (requires Docker)

Endpoints

POST /conversation

Start or continue a conversation. Optional parameters are only necessary for conversations that span multiple requests.

Field Description
message The message to be displayed to the user.
conversationId (Optional) An ID for the conversation you want to continue.
jailbreakConversationId (Optional, for BingAIClient only) Set to true to start a conversation in jailbreak mode. After that, this should be the ID for the jailbreak conversation (given in the response as a parameter also named jailbreakConversationId).
parentMessageId (Optional, for ChatGPTClient, and BingAIClient in jailbreak mode) The ID of the parent message (i.e. response.messageId) when continuing a conversation.
conversationSignature (Optional, for BingAIClient only) A signature for the conversation (given in the response as a parameter also named conversationSignature). Required when continuing a conversation unless in jailbreak mode.
clientId (Optional, for BingAIClient only) The ID of the client. Required when continuing a conversation unless in jailbreak mode.
invocationId (Optional, for BingAIClient only) The ID of the invocation. Required when continuing a conversation unless in jailbreak mode.
clientOptions (Optional) An object containing options for the client.
clientOptions.clientToUse (Optional) The client to use for this message. Possible values: chatgpt, chatgpt-browser, bing.
clientOptions.* (Optional) Any valid options for the client. For example, for ChatGPTClient, you can set clientOptions.openaiApiKey to set an API key for this message only, or clientOptions.promptPrefix to give the AI custom instructions for this message only, etc.

To configure which options can be changed per message (default: all), see the comments for perMessageClientOptionsWhitelist in settings.example.js. To allow changing clients, perMessageClientOptionsWhitelist.validClientsToUse must be set to a non-empty array as described in the example settings file.

Usage

Method 1 (POST)

To start a conversation with ChatGPT, send a POST request to the server's /conversation endpoint with a JSON body with parameters per Endpoints > POST /conversation above.

{
    "message": "Hello, how are you today?",
    "conversationId": "your-conversation-id (optional)",
    "parentMessageId": "your-parent-message-id (optional, for `ChatGPTClient` only)",
    "conversationSignature": "your-conversation-signature (optional, for `BingAIClient` only)",
    "clientId": "your-client-id (optional, for `BingAIClient` only)",
    "invocationId": "your-invocation-id (optional, for `BingAIClient` only)",
}

The server will return a JSON object containing ChatGPT's response:

// HTTP/1.1 200 OK
{
    "response": "I'm doing well, thank you! How are you?",
    "conversationId": "your-conversation-id",
    "messageId": "response-message-id (for `ChatGPTClient` only)",
    "conversationSignature": "your-conversation-signature (for `BingAIClient` only)",
    "clientId": "your-client-id (for `BingAIClient` only)",
    "invocationId": "your-invocation-id (for `BingAIClient` only - pass this new value back into subsequent requests as-is)",
    "details": "an object containing the raw response from the client"
}

If the request is unsuccessful, the server will return a JSON object with an error message.

If the request object is missing a required property (e.g. message):

// HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
{
    "error": "The message parameter is required."
}

If there was an error sending the message to ChatGPT:

// HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable
{
    "error": "There was an error communicating with ChatGPT."
}
Method 2 (SSE)

You can set "stream": true in the request body to receive a stream of tokens as they are generated.

import { fetchEventSource } from '@waylaidwanderer/fetch-event-source'; // use `@microsoft/fetch-event-source` instead if in a browser environment

const opts = {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
        "message": "Write a poem about cats.",
        "conversationId": "your-conversation-id (optional)",
        "parentMessageId": "your-parent-message-id (optional)",
        "stream": true,
        // Any other parameters per `Endpoints > POST /conversation` above
    }),
};

See demos/use-api-server-streaming.js for an example of how to receive the response as it's generated. You will receive one token at a time, so you will need to concatenate them yourself.

Successful output:

{ data: '', event: '', id: '', retry: 3000 }
{ data: 'Hello', event: '', id: '', retry: undefined }
{ data: '!', event: '', id: '', retry: undefined }
{ data: ' How', event: '', id: '', retry: undefined }
{ data: ' can', event: '', id: '', retry: undefined }
{ data: ' I', event: '', id: '', retry: undefined }
{ data: ' help', event: '', id: '', retry: undefined }
{ data: ' you', event: '', id: '', retry: undefined }
{ data: ' today', event: '', id: '', retry: undefined }
{ data: '?', event: '', id: '', retry: undefined }
{ data: '<result JSON here, see Method 1>', event: 'result', id: '', retry: undefined }
{ data: '[DONE]', event: '', id: '', retry: undefined }
// Hello! How can I help you today?

Error output:

const message = {
  data: '{"code":503,"error":"There was an error communicating with ChatGPT."}',
  event: 'error',
  id: '',
  retry: undefined
};

if (message.event === 'error') {
  console.error(JSON.parse(message.data).error); // There was an error communicating with ChatGPT.
}

Notes

  • Method 1 is simple, but Time to First Byte (TTFB) is long.
  • Method 2 uses a non-standard implementation of server-sent event API; you should import fetch-event-source first and use POST method.

CLI

Setup

Follow the same setup instructions for the API server, creating settings.js.

Usage

If installed globally:

chatgpt-cli

If installed locally:

npm run cli

ChatGPT's responses are automatically copied to your clipboard, so you can paste them into other applications.

Using a Reverse Proxy

As shown in the examples above, you can set reverseProxyUrl in ChatGPTClient's options to use a reverse proxy server instead of the official ChatGPT API. For now, this is the only way to use the ChatGPT underlying models. This method has been patched and the instructions below are no longer relevant, but you may still want to use a reverse proxy for other reasons. Currently, reverse proxy servers are still used for performing a Cloudflare bypass for ChatGPTBrowserClient.

Instructions

How does it work? Simple answer: ChatGPTClient > reverse proxy > OpenAI server. The reverse proxy server does some magic under the hood to access the underlying model directly via OpenAI's server and then returns the response to ChatGPTClient.

Instructions are provided below.

https://chatgpt.hato.ai/completions (mine, currently offline)

Instructions

  1. Get your ChatGPT access token from https://chat.openai.com/api/auth/session (look for the accessToken property).
    • This is NOT the same thing as the session token.
    • Automatically fetching or refreshing your ChatGPT access token is not currently supported by this library. Please handle this yourself for now.
  2. Set reverseProxyUrl to https://chatgpt.hato.ai/completions in settings.js > chatGptClient or ChatGPTClient's options.
  3. Set the "OpenAI API key" parameter (e.g. settings.chatGptClient.openaiApiKey) to the ChatGPT access token you got in step 1.
  4. Set the model to text-davinci-002-render, text-davinci-002-render-paid, or text-davinci-002-render-sha depending on which ChatGPT models that your account has access to. Models must be a ChatGPT model name, not the underlying model name, and you cannot use a model that your account does not have access to.

Notes

  • Since this is my server, I can guarantee that no logging or tracking is done. I can see general usage stats, but I cannot see any of your completions. Whether you trust me on this or not is up to you.
  • Non-streaming responses over 60s are not supported. Use stream: true (API) or onProgress (client) as a workaround.
  • Rate limit of 10 requests per second.

Caveats

Regarding ChatGPTClient

Since gpt-3.5-turbo is ChatGPT's underlying model, I had to do my best to replicate the way the official ChatGPT website uses it. This means my implementation or the underlying model may not behave exactly the same in some ways:

  • Conversations are not tied to any user IDs, so if that's important to you, you should implement your own user ID system.
  • ChatGPT's model parameters (temperature, frequency penalty, etc.) are unknown, so I set some defaults that I thought would be reasonable.
  • Conversations are limited to roughly the last 3000 tokens, so earlier messages may be forgotten during longer conversations.
    • This works in a similar way to ChatGPT, except I'm pretty sure they have some additional way of retrieving context from earlier messages when needed (which can probably be achieved with embeddings, but I consider that out-of-scope for now).
