AI Chat Mode ​

Probe Chat gives you a grounded, code-aware chat interface in CLI or Web UI. It uses the same Probe context engine and works with any supported LLM provider.

Quick start (run from your repo root) ​

bash
# CLI mode (default)
npx -y @probelabs/probe-chat@latest

# Web UI mode
npx -y @probelabs/probe-chat@latest --web

Set one provider key first (example):

bash
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your_key
# or
export OPENAI_API_KEY=your_key
# or
export GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_key

Common usage ​

bash
# Ask a single question
npx -y @probelabs/probe-chat@latest --message "Explain the auth flow" --json

# Point to a specific repo
npx -y @probelabs/probe-chat@latest /path/to/repo

Web UI notes ​

When running with --web, allow the folders you want to access and use a dedicated account if exposing it to a team.
