The REPL console

The REPL is an interactive session that keeps your profile and history between commands. It sits between the one-shot CLI and the visual bench: type plain messages to run governed checks, and use short verbs for everything else. Start it with:

paresium console

Running checks

Type a message and press Enter to run a governed check. No command needed:

paresium› What is our refund policy for enterprise plans?

Switching the model

A /model control, like the one in the bench, shows the model picker. Only the beta model is live today, so the others are refused with a clear message:

paresium› /model
Model tiers:
* Beta (clara-dev) available
RC (clara-staging) unavailable (release candidate, not published yet)
Production (clara) unavailable (stable production, not published yet)
Switch with: model <beta|rc|production>
paresium› /model rc
RC is not available yet. Only Beta is live today.

Managing knowledge

The knowledge verb is the scriptable, agent-friendly way to add and review compliance rules and playbooks:

paresium› knowledge list
paresium› knowledge add compliance: customers must be told about fees before signing
paresium› knowledge review
paresium› knowledge publish

add drafts a clean, structured rule from your plain-language description; every publish quotes a price first and is checked so it can never weaken a required safety rule.
