- Go to the Application tab.
- Navigate to Cookies > quora.com.
- Look for the '
m-b
' cookie and use its value asCookie
. - IMPORTANT: Use the same email address to log in to https://poe.com/ or else you will get an error.
Setting the Authentication
const formkey = 'YOUR_FORMKEY';
const cookie = 'M_B_COOKIE_VALUE';
setAuth('Quora-Formkey', formkey);
setAuth('Cookie', `m-b=${cookie}`);
Selecting a Bot
Select the bot you want to interact with by specifying its username:
const bot = 'capybara'; // Example: 'Sage' bot
Refer to the table below to find the appropriate username for the desired bot.
| Bot | Username | | --------- | --------------- | | Sage | capybara | | GPT-4 | beaver | | Claude+ | a2_2 | | Claude | a2 | | ChatGPT | chinchilla | | Dragonfly | nutria | | Other | USERNAME_OF_BOT |

const chatId = await loadChatId(bot);
clearContext(chatId)
Clear the context of the chat associated with the provided chat ID.
await clearContext(chatId);
sendMessage(bot, chatId, text)
Send a message (text
) to the selected bot using the associated chat ID.
const text = 'Hello, Poe!';
sendMessage(bot, chatId, text);
getMessage(bot, chatId)
Get the response message from the selected bot.
const response = await getMessage(bot, chatId);
Example: Using CLI
Step 1. Install package
npm install poe-npm readline-sync
Step 2. Create a file named index.js
and paste the following code:
const { setAuth, loadChatId, clearContext, sendMessage, getMessage } = require('poe-npm');
const readlineSync = require('readline-sync');
const formkey = 'YOUR_FORMKEY';
const cookie = 'M_B_COOKIE_VALUE';
setAuth('Quora-Formkey', formkey);
setAuth('Cookie', `m-b=${cookie}`);
const bot = readlineSync.question('Enter Bot\'s Username: ');
console.log('The selected bot is: ', bot);
async function runPoeBot() {
let chatId = await loadChatId(bot);
await clearContext(chatId); // clearing context initially
while (true) {
const text = readlineSync.question('You: ');
if (text === 'clear context') {
await clearContext(chatId);
console.log('Context cleared');
}
await sendMessage(bot, chatId, text);
const response = await getMessage(bot, chatId);
console.log(`${bot}: ${response}`);
}
}
