What's New in Version 1.0.4

Output Format Customization

Now you have the flexibility to choose the output format for generated content, such as JSON, markdown, or plain text. This allows you to tailor the output to your specific needs and integrate it seamlessly into your workflows.

File Saving Options

In addition to output format customization, you can now specify an output file to save the results of your commands. This feature is particularly useful for logging or sharing generated content with your team.

FormatInstructionsProvider Utility

To simplify output format customization, we've introduced the FormatInstructionsProvider utility class. It provides detailed instructions and templates for different output formats, making it easy to create content that suits your requirements.

StepwisePlannerCommand

Experience a new way to interact with the StepwisePlanner in a chat-like interface. The StepwisePlannerCommand allows you to engage in dynamic conversations with the planner, making it even more versatile and user-friendly.

Changes in Version 1.0.4

1. Upgraded Microsoft.SemanticKernel Package: We have upgraded the Microsoft.SemanticKernel package version from 0.22.230905.3-preview to 0.24.230912.2-preview in SKonsole.csproj, CondenseSkill.csproj, and PRSkill.csproj.

2. Added Support for OpenAI's GPT-3.5-turbo Model: Users can now configure the tool to use OpenAI's GPT-3.5-turbo model by setting the LLM_PROVIDER to "OpenAI" and providing the OPENAI_API_KEY. The KernelProvider has been updated to switch between Azure OpenAI and OpenAI based on the LLM_PROVIDER configuration.

3. Improved the Configuration Process: We've introduced a new method, ConfigOrExitAsync, which allows users to easily configure or exit the menu. Added LLMConfigAsync method to handle LLM configuration, including Azure OpenAI and OpenAI settings. Enhanced the RunKeyValueConfigAsync method to support a more efficient key-value configuration process.

4. Improved Default Configuration Handling: The ConfigurationProvider now merges the default configuration with the user's configuration. The default OPENAI_CHAT_MODEL_ID is set to "gpt-3.5-turbo" if not specified by the user.

5. Added New ConfigConstants Class: This class contains constant values for configuration keys, making it easier to manage and maintain configuration-related code.

6. Added SpectreConsoleExtensions Class: This class contains an extension method for Spectre.Console's TextPrompt class, allowing for easier handling of secret input fields.

7. Minor Code Refactoring and Cleanup: Including removing unused imports and adjusting namespaces.
