Breaking Changes

Compress session automaticlly (#333)

When the total number of tokens in the session messages exceeds compress_threshold, aichat will automatically compress the session.

This means you can chat forever in the session.

The default compress_threshold is 2000, set this value to zero to disable automatic compression.

Rename max_tokens to max_input_tokens (#339)

To avoid misunderstandings. The max_input_tokens also be referred to as context_window.

    models:
      - name: mistral
--      max_tokens: 8192
++      max_input_tokens: 8192
