Chat Mode

Chat mode is Whisper's default. It's an interactive session where you give instructions in plain English and Whisper takes action on your behalf. Think of it like having a conversation with a very capable assistant who has access to all your account data.

Starting a Session

whisper

If you have multiple accounts, specify which one:

whisper myaccount

Giving Instructions

At the > prompt, type what you want in natural language. Whisper figures out what to do.

Some examples:

What you type	What Whisper does
show my unreads	Lists all unread conversations with previews
read chat with @alice and respond	Opens Alice's conversation, reads it, drafts and sends a reply
how much did I earn this week?	Checks your earnings data and gives you a summary
find new subscribers from the last 48 hours	Searches for recent subscribers who haven't been messaged yet
what's in my vault?	Lists your content folders with item counts
send @bob the most popular photo set	Looks up your best-performing content and sends it as a paid message

You don't need to be precise. "Check my unreads" and "show me unread messages" both work. Whisper understands intent, not exact phrasing.

Follow-Up Context

Whisper remembers what you've been doing during your session. If you just read a chat with Alice, you can say:

send her something teasing

Whisper knows "her" means Alice because that's who you were just talking about.

This makes conversations with Whisper feel natural. You don't have to repeat subscriber names or context with every instruction.

Per-Subscriber Memory

Whisper maintains a separate memory for each subscriber. When you read a chat with Alice, the AI loads everything it knows about Alice: her preferences, spending patterns, conversation history, and any notes you've made.

This means conversations with Alice don't bleed into Bob's context. Each subscriber is treated as a unique person with their own relationship to your account.

The AI also updates subscriber profiles automatically. If it learns that someone prefers video content or tips on weekends, it saves that for future conversations.

Subscriber Routing

You can quickly switch your focus to a specific subscriber without going through unreads.

Sticky context with /sub:

/sub alice

Your prompt changes to @alice> so you always know who you're focused on. Everything you type goes to Alice's AI session until you switch away.

/sub clear

This returns you to the general > prompt.

One-off messages with @mention:

@bob check his latest message and respond

This routes just that one instruction to Bob's session without changing your sticky context.

For the full details, see Subscriber Routing.

Directives

You can set standing instructions that apply to every conversation:

/note Push the Beach Day photoset to outdoor fans

Whisper will follow this directive across all conversations until you remove it. For more, see Directives.

Special Commands

These commands work at the > prompt:

Command	What it does
/unreads	Process all unread messages automatically
/review	Review AI drafts before they're sent
/sub alice	Switch to Alice's subscriber context
/sub clear	Return to general context
/sub	Show current context and list known subscribers
@alice ...	Send a one-off instruction routed to Alice
/note ...	Add a standing directive
/notes	List all active directives
/help	Show available commands
/quit	Exit Whisper

Exiting

Type /quit, /exit, or press Ctrl+C to leave Whisper and return to your normal Terminal.

Need to run another Whisper command?

Commands like whisper insights, whisper account, or whisper campaign need to be run from your regular Terminal, not from inside Whisper. Exit first with /quit, then type the command.
