Configuration

Environment variables (set in .env):

BEEPER_ACCESS_TOKEN=xxx
BEEPER_BASE_URL=http://localhost:23373
FABRIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8080
FABRIC_DEFAULT_MODEL=claude-sonnet-4-20250514
STYLE_GUIDE_PATH=./data/style_guide.json
MIN_MESSAGES_FOR_ANALYSIS=100

CLI Commands

beeper-ai status                    # Check connectivity
beeper-ai search "query"            # Search messages
beeper-ai summarize <chat_id>       # Summarize conversation
beeper-ai reply <chat_id>           # Generate reply
beeper-ai analyze-style             # Create style guide

Common Tasks

Find a Chat ID

1. Search for messages from the person/conversation
2. The chat_id appears in search results

Generate a Style-Matched Reply

1. Ensure style guide exists (analyze-style if needed)
2. Run reply <chat_id> - style is applied automatically

Troubleshooting

• "Connection refused" on Beeper: Ensure Desktop app is running
• "Connection refused" on Fabric: Start with fabric --serve
• "Insufficient data": Need more messages for style analysis
