I versus AI has done an incredible video covering most topics:

Configuration

To configure ChatKey, you can edit the config.ini file provided.

General settings

Key	Description	Default
popup_menu_hotkey	The hotkey to show the popup menu	Alt + .
replace_text	Whether to replace the selected text with the response	0
show_notification	Whether to show a notification when generating a response	1
max_input_length	The maximum length of input text (0 = unlimited)	0

Adding prompts

To add new prompts, you must include a new section in the config.ini file. For instance, if you wish to include a prompt for translating text to French, you can achieve this by appending the following section to the configuration file:

[prompt_translate_to_french]
name = Translate to French
shortcut = t
system_prompt = "I want you to act as a French translator. I will say something in any language and you will translate it to French. The first thing I want you to translate is:"
temperature = 0.2
model = gpt-3.5-turbo

To ensure that the newly added prompt is available in the popup menu, it must be included in the [popup_menu] section. Additionally, if you have already configured multiple prompts, you can tidy up the popup menu by utilizing --- as a separator.

[popup_menu]
---
prompt_translate_to_french

The changes will be applied automatically, there's no need to restart ChatKey (the only exception to this rule is the global popup_menu_hotkey).

Prompt settings

You can individually configure the parameters of each prompt. If keys with default values are omitted, the default values will be used instead.

Key	Description	Default
name	The name of the prompt that will be displayed in the popup menu
shortcut	The shortcut key to select the prompt from the popup menu
system_content	The prompt that will be used to generate the response (required)
model	The model to use when generating the response, more info here	gpt-3.5
temperature	The temperature to use when generating the response (0.0 - 2.0)	0.7
top_p	The top_p to use when generating the response (0.0 - 1.0)
presence_penalty	Increase the model's likelihood to talk about new topics (-2.0 - 2.0)
frequency_penalty	Decrease the model's likelihood to repeat the same line verbatim (-2.0 - 2.0)
