I added commands to shape the conversation:

[oderwat]

/rethink <text> will change the internal dialog of the last assistant message.
/rewrite <text> will change the last answer of the assistant.

Both commands can be used to change how the conversation continues in some pretty drastic and powerful ways.

@oderwat would you mind running black on your code to make it pass the formatting check so we can merge it more easily? https://github.com/cpacker/MemGPT#development

Alternatively if you add me as a contributor to your fork repository I can add this for you.

Thank you for another great PR btw!

EDIT: if you use VSCode, you can just install the Microsoft Black Formatter extension, then add this to your settings.json:

...
    "[python]": {
        "editor.defaultFormatter": "ms-python.black-formatter",
        "editor.formatOnSave": true
    },
    "black-formatter.args": ["-l", "140"],
...

Then go into the files that the github actions is saying are bad, and save them inside VSCode which will auto-format them to the black style so that the PR passes the check (in this case you would go to main.py and save to format):

[cpacker]

Needs black reformatting (or add me as a collaborator to your fork @oderwat and I can patch it)

[oderwat]

I use PyCharm Professional and just enabled the integrated Black formatter. I will go through the PRs and update them.

[oderwat]

OK. This did not work well. I also think that the setup of Black may be different. Have to investigate.

[oderwat]

OK. I guess it worked now. I also added @cpacker as collaborator, just in case.

[oderwat]

OK. I was in rebase hell because for some stupid reason I could not get upstream to my local origin. I hope that now everything is fine. There are two unrelated problems though: 1. Black reports an error in utils (but I did not change that) and main.py uses print_messages without importing it.

Just as an FYI @oderwat , your implementation here isn't also overwriting the persistence manager's history, so if the agent uses conversation_search to look into the past, they'll find the original unedited message.

However, it is a significant amount of work to get the persistence manager to also be in sync (since the persistence manager can have many implementations), so I think it's OK to have this issue and just leave a disclaimer, since the commands as-is are still quite useful.

Thank you for your contribution!
