Chat REPL

The mycellm chat command provides an interactive terminal for chatting and managing your node.

Auto-discovery

mycellm chat works without any configuration:

1. Checks local node (localhost:8420) for models
2. Falls back to configured bootstrap (from .env)
3. Falls back to public network (api.mycellm.dev)

# Just works — finds models automatically
