Incognito

Incognito disables local conversation history and optionally set a different default AI model.

Start in incognito

$ hai -i

Setting a default incognito AI model

Modify ~/.hai/hai.toml:

# The default AI model in incognito mode.
#default_incognito_ai_model = "ollama/gemma3:27b"

While any AI model can be specified, a local model (e.g. ollama/gemma3:27b) lets you be fully discrete: no conversation history and no data leaves your machine.

What history does hai keep

There are two logs that hai maintains:

• A log of recent repl-commands accessible by the up-arrow.
• The most recent conversation which is retrievable using /chat-resume.

Incognito disables both of these.
