Advanced Settings

The Advanced Settings section of ChatFrame allows power users to fine-tune the application's behavior for performance, network, and LLM interaction.

Performance Tuning

  • Local RAG Cache: Adjust the size or location of the cache used for local vector search to balance speed and disk usage.
  • Model Parameters: For certain providers, you may be able to set default generation parameters such as temperature, top-p, and max tokens.

Network Configuration

  • Proxy Settings: Configure an HTTP or SOCKS proxy for all outbound LLM API requests (see proxy-configuration.md).
  • Timeouts: Adjust connection and response timeouts for LLM API calls.

MCP Server Management

  • Server Endpoints: Manually add, edit, or remove connection details for external Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.
  • Tool Visibility: Control which tools exposed by an MCP server are visible or enabled by default.

Application Diagnostics

  • Logging Level: Adjust the verbosity of application logs to help diagnose issues.
  • Data Directory: View or change the location where ChatFrame stores its local data, including API keys and RAG vector stores.

Caution: Modifying advanced settings can impact the application's stability and performance. Only change these settings if you understand their function.
