Method new()

Initializes the LLMMessage object with an optional system prompt.

Usage

LLMMessage$new(system_prompt = "You are a helpful assistant")

Arguments

system_prompt

A string that sets the initial system prompt.

Returns

A new LLMMessage object. Deep Clone of LLMMessage Object

This method creates a deep copy of the LLMMessage object. It ensures that all internal states, including message histories and settings, are copied so that the original object remains unchanged when mutations are applied to the copy. This is particularly useful for maintaining immutability in a tidyverse-like functional programming context where functions should not have side effects on their inputs.

Method clone_deep()

Usage

LLMMessage$clone_deep()

Returns

A new LLMMessage object that is a deep copy of the original. Add a message
