Custom context

[the-s-anton]

Is it possible to create a custom context instead of relying on the RubyLLM.chat()?

I have "micro-chats" that I want to share as context with other agents along with it's internal context.

If you want to pass the context around, you simply have to pass the message history to the other chats.

I am not sure I understand how to do it

If I have

chat_a = Chat.create!(model_id: "gpt-...")
chat_a.ast("something here")

chat_b = Chat.create!(model_id: "claude-...")
chat_b.ask("something else")

# at this point chat_a and chat_b has messages
# but the context is isolated and within its root
# chat_a/b records

chat_c = Chat.create!(model_id: "third-model-...")
chat_c.ask("another request")

How do I pass the chat_a and chat_b history to chat_c?

Is there a proper way to do this, or is it only possible using .with_instructions()?
