LLM requests are NOT cached by default. However, you can turn on LLM request caching from script metadata or the CLI arguments.

script({
    ...,
    cache: true
})

or

npx genaiscript run ... --cache

The cache is stored in the .genaiscript/cache/chat.jsonl file. You can delete this file to clear the cache. This file is excluded from git by default.

• Directory.genaiscript

  • Directorycache

    • chat.jsonl

Use the cacheName option to specify a custom cache file name. The name will be used to create a file in the .genaiscript/cache directory.

script({
    ...,
    cache: "summary"
})

Or using the --cache-name flag in the CLI.

npx genaiscript run .... --cache-name summary

• Directory.genaiscript

  • Directorycache

    • summary.jsonl

You can instantiate a custom cache object to manage the cache programmatically.

const cache = await workspace.cache("custom")
// write entries
await cache.set("file.txt", "...")
// read value
const content = await cache.get("file.txt")
// list values
const values = await cache.values()
