I just release a beta version of a free AI Chat for DNN.

It give you the ability to use AI inside DNN with a number of tools for managing pages and modules, send emails, etc.

You have also the ability to add your own custom tools.

It will apreciate if some of you want to test it and give some feedback on github.

Do you have some example prompts and/or use cases? That might activate people to try this. Currently I do not have a Claude subscription (yet) and still trying to figure out what subscriptions I need. There are quite a few already :-)

You dont need a subscription. You need a api key, witch is pay what you use. Price depend on the used model. I recommend claude sonnet.

It's a good idea to create some examples of prompts. I will add it to github wiki.

This is awesome! Why did you choose Claude over others? My personal experience from testing the things I do is that Claude is definitely a second place, but SO distant behind ChatGPT. 🤔

I chose Claude because i have good expiences with claude for coding and tools usage.

Witch is the main goal here. For managing content (pages and modules) and managing html, css, js, handlebars, razor (of skins and opencontent templates for exemple).

Tools is what in this dnn AI assitant call all dnn stuff.

Claude do it very well in chaining different tools to get some more complex task acomplished.

The niced will be to support many AI providers, but for now i decided to start only with claud.

Great Sacha, there is no release on that project. Should there be one? so people can help test it.
