Replit AI Chatlogs

Since Replit AI Advanced is now capped to a certain amount,
it should be possible to view my past chats.

Why do you need to have access to the chat history with AI?

besides convenience, it prevents wasting uses if you ever need to ask the same question again

This would use either Repl storage or account storage, and since many users have storage problems, I think something like an extension would be more likely.

I don’t think an extension can access your AI chat history, since there are no APIs for that. But wouldn’t a toggle option in the AI pane itself be a better, more intuitive option?

Individual Repls really don’t have storage limits

Why would it need to use your storage?

e.g. client memory, etc? Why can’t you store data in repl descriptions, bio, or something of the likes?

Why would anyone do this for AI chat history? It’s impractical first off, and secondly it’s just a weird idea. At the most basic level Replit can just have a file be made that acts like .env (yes I know Secrets exist, but for the sake of example) that holds the data. Users can choose whether they want to copy-paste it somewhere else, but it’ll be there in the meantime.

no i mean ways that you can “bypass” account storage showing that not everything needs to count towards your account storage.

An easier way to “bypass” replit account storage is to… use google docs instead of storing stuff in repl descriptions or bio.

I am still waiting for this feature, or something alike.

Seems like it might be getting implemented: Discord

Could you send a screenshot? Not everyone has Discord

It says “message failed to load” and I can’t access the #gday-bot channel.

They added a flag called flag-ai-chat-log-ld-start.

This feature exists, albeit very obscure.

  1. Enter a Repl with the debug query parameter equal to 1 (?debug=1)
  2. You should now see a new Tool named Debug (Red bug icon)
  3. Open the Debug tool and choose the aichat section
  4. Click on the Messages tab
  5. From there, you can either manually download your chat history to your PC, export it to your Repl or import it from your Repl.

(You can also edit the chat log from your Repl and re-import it to make funny things like this happen:)

While your solution does work, it’s using the debug pane which is not intended for normal people and only admins, and someday without warning they might restrict it to admins only. And because people usually don’t like having a feature disappear one day without warning I wouldn’t suggest this as a proper answer. At least give a warning saying something like “this might stop working at any time”.
