Great UI/UX and very nice work!

I just tested it by typing "llama cpp gpu support" that's it.

Flawless instructions for Python, but when I followed up with

"in node"

It didn't know about node-llama-cpp. Is there a general knowledge cutoff, and/or is loading developer-specific stuff a manual process?

I use Agent Mode to rephrase the query, and it appears to have provided the correct answer.

The results: https://devv.ai/search?threadId=dl3vwbdu52ww

P.S. Agent Mode is a superior option to Fast Mode. It meticulously examines your questions and assigns an appropriate agent to provide answers, leveraging GPT-4 technology in its operations.

Nice! Yeah without it, it wanted me to make my own node-llama-cpp: https://devv.ai/search?threadId=dl3rah43egw0

So agent mode is better for more recent stuff that you might find in a search engine?

Agent Mode has a "thinking" process, so it will be more intelligent than Fast Mode.
