Overview

Chat is Wegent's core interaction feature that allows you to have real-time conversations with AI agents to complete various tasks.

πŸ“‹ Core Concepts​

Chat Tasks​

A Chat Task is the basic unit of the Chat feature. Every interaction with AI creates a task:

  • Single-turn: Simple one-time Q&A
  • Multi-turn: Continuous contextual conversation
  • Code Task: Programming tasks related to code repositories

Chat Modes​

Wegent provides multiple conversation modes for different scenarios:

ModeDescriptionUse Case
Smart Follow-upAI asks questions to clarify requirementsComplex tasks with unclear requirements
AI Cross-ValidationAI suggests modificationsCode review, document optimization
Direct ExecutionAI executes tasks immediatelySimple tasks with clear requirements

🎯 Main Features​

1. Task Management​

Centralized management of all chat tasks:

  • View conversation history list
  • Filter by status (in progress, completed, failed)
  • Search and archive tasks
  • Export conversation records

2. Multi-Agent Collaboration​

Support for various collaboration methods:

  • Single Agent: One-on-one conversation with one agent
  • Group Chat: Multiple agents participating in discussions
  • Team Mode: Agents collaborate with assigned roles

3. Code Tasks​

Enhanced features designed for programming:

  • Automatic code repository cloning
  • Agents read and analyze code
  • Execute code modifications and commits
  • Real-time execution monitoring

4. Conversation Control​

Flexible conversation control options:

  • Pause/resume conversation
  • Regenerate responses
  • Modify context
  • Switch agents

5. Runtime Model Switching​

After a task has started, you can adjust the model used for later responses in the current task. The change only affects the current task. It does not modify the agent, bot, or model defaults, and it does not affect other tasks or newly created conversations.

To keep the runtime protocol consistent, WeWork limits model switching for already running tasks to the same runtime model family in the model selector. Wegent derives the API response field runtime.family from the combination of the model CRD's modelConfig.env.model and spec.protocol values:

  • The current task model and the target model must have the same runtime.family value
  • For example, Claude, Kimi, or DeepSeek-compatible models whose runtime.family is claude.claude can be switched between each other
  • Models with the same env.model but different spec.protocol values are treated as different runtime families
  • Models without runtime.family stay visible for an already running task, but are disabled

Models with a different runtime.family value remain visible, but are disabled in the selector.
