Overview
The Gotchipus Terminal is the primary interface for interacting with your Gotchipus as an intelligent companion. It’s a retro-styled command terminal where you can have natural conversations, review on-chain activity, and manage Hooks.
Three Tabs
The Terminal is organized into three functional tabs:
Chat
A streaming AI conversation interface where you talk directly to your Gotchipus.
- Real-time streaming responses with visible reasoning process
- Markdown rendering with code highlighting, math (KaTeX), and diagrams (Mermaid)
- Conversation history — pin, star, rename, or delete past conversations
- Your Gotchipus’s responses are shaped by its current mood, faction, and state
Your Gotchipus isn’t a generic chatbot — it’s your companion, and its personality reflects its on-chain identity.
Activity
A real-time feed of your Gotchipus’s on-chain transactions and events:
- Transaction history from its Token-Bound Account
- Hook execution logs
- State changes (level ups, mood shifts, wearable equips)
Hooks
Manage the Hook modules attached to your selected Gotchipus:
- View currently installed Hooks
- Add new Hooks from the marketplace
- Remove or reconfigure existing Hooks
AI Session Setup
Before your Gotchipus can act autonomously, you configure an AI Session — a set of security parameters that define what your Gotchipus is allowed to do:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|
| Slippage Tolerance | Maximum acceptable slippage for trades |
| Daily Limit | Maximum total value your Gotchipus can spend per day |
| Per-Transaction Limit | Maximum value per individual transaction |
| Whitelist/Blacklist Mode | Which contracts your Gotchipus can or cannot interact with |
| Block Infinite Approvals | Prevent unlimited token approvals |
Sessions are time-limited and value-capped. You maintain full control — your Gotchipus can only act within the boundaries you set.
Selecting a Gotchipus
The Terminal operates in the context of a selected Gotchipus. If you own multiple, you choose which one you’re talking to. All chat, activity, and Hook management applies to the currently selected companion.
How It Works Under the Hood
The Terminal connects to an AI backend that:
- Receives your message as natural language
- Considers your Gotchipus’s on-chain state (faction, mood, attributes, soul level)
- Streams a response using Server-Sent Events (SSE)
- Can trigger on-chain actions if an active Session allows it
The conversation isn’t just flavor text — it’s the interface layer between human intent and autonomous on-chain execution.
