Thanks.
1. I had two active message channels, both listening for and processing my input. I fixed that. It seems NIP17 doesn't work...
2. I find the thing very limited... Had to edit many things myself in the config.toml file, and still it can't read a website properly. Basically, it's just a chatbot for the moment.
I'm giving up on this tool for now. Too complicated for my level. Not enough documentation. Let's see if it improves over time.
