Enhancement Request: Customizable Multiple AI Assistant Prompts with User-Defined !bang Commands

Syx

Making a new assistant, you can't create a custom bang for it unlike !code.

Relatedly, you can't make custom bangs in https://kagi.com/settings, only in the search interface.

I created a custom bang !summarise-jp which is meant to summarise a japanese article I'm reading. I set up custom assistant for it, and then typing in the query !summarise-jp ..... in Kagi search will redirect me to the assistant.

Yeah i cant agree more than wanting this feature. Probably my number 1 thing I want them to add.

Kel

Same here. This would be a blessing.

Hey, this is currently a work in progress. I'll merge this thread with an existing, longer discussion to streamline both updates and communication.

Luis

Hey! We are still developing this feature. In the meantime, you can use the profile and internet query parameters in the Assistant URL -- for example: https://kagi.com/assistant?q=%s&profile=gpt-4o&internet=on

&profile with value,

for custom assistants: the id in the URL when you open your custom assistant in the settings page
for standard models: uses the model's name, for e.g. gpt-4o
- full list: code, claude-3-haiku, claude-3-opus, claude-3-sonnet, gemini-pro, gpt-4, gpt-4-turbo, gpt-4o, gpt-4o-mini, llama-3-405b, mistral-large, mistral-nemo

&internet + &personalizations use values on and off

Luis Thanks this works perfectly!

This was working, but seems to have broken today. I have this bang defined as !c

https://kagi.com/assistant?q=%s&profile=code

But now !c redirects me to cnn, which is annoying but also a potential data leak.

Hi,

I was going to create a new thread but it seems that it's the same topic being discussed here.

To my recollection, with the Beta version of Assistant, we had this behavior :

!code would trigger the "code" assistant
!chat would trigger the latest "general" assistant
and we could define bang for our custom assistants

With the new one :

!code trigger the "code" assistant as expected, but it appears as a "Custom Assistant" in the list behind the prompt input even though I didn't created it and it appears as "Default Assistant" in settings
!chat trigger the latest assistant I used, so if I used "!code" in my previous thread, I'm back with the "code" assistant, which means that if I want to use another, I have to manually pick it after the first reply, which is kind of annoying because it's a lost request/reply and furthermore, if I use a bang that is not "!code", I expect to interact with an assistant that is not the "code" one ; that's why I picked another bang in the first place
it seems that it's impossible to define a bang for a custom assistant

The proposed features :

I expect "!chat" to never trigger the "dev" assistant which should be triggered only through "!bang"
I expect "!chat" to trigger the latest "non dev" assistant I used
It would be nice to be able to assign a bang to custom assistants

Luis

dix you can define custom bangs for custom Assistants. Instructions are available here: https://kagifeedback.org/d/2183-enhancement-request-customizable-multiple-ai-assistant-prompts-with-user-defined-bang-commands/22

We are simplifying the setup process in an upcoming release.

I expect "!chat" to trigger the latest "non dev" assistant I used

Currently, using !chat opens the Assistant, which by default loads the last used model. To suggest changes to our standard bangs, please open a new thread or, if you're comfortable with git, consider opening a PR in our open source repository. Thank you!

Luis Thanks for the reply
I'll have a look at defining custom bangs for custom Assistants!

Luis

somerabbit155 We've made some recent changes but that's unexpected. Could you please delete that custom bang and recreate it? Let me know if everything works correctly

somerabbit155

Luis It started working a couple hours ago, so was temporary. Probably caused by the new ability to add custom bangs natively on assistant settings 🎉

Now the only thing missing is, you can't add a custom bang to the code bot, because it has no configure option. So I'm left with my https://kagi.com/assistant?q=%s&profile=code even though I was able to delete the other Custom Bangs and just configure it on my assistants.

somerabbit155

Not sure you need this information, but it started working on it's own; I didn't do anything to my configuration. I did decide to delete those custom bangs and configure it on the assistant instead though as that seemed more native.

Luis

somerabbit155 we fixed it (https://kagifeedback.org/d/5148-custom-bangs-that-override-builtin-bangs-no-longer-work). I forgot to follow up with you on this thread. Thanks for reporting!
