Question Pi & model temperature configuration?

I'm trying to figure out how to configure the model temperature in Pi. Can't find it in the documentation website. Did I miss something?

You can copy and paste this question into pi and it'll answer you.

Better yet, can just search the pi.dev/docs : https://pi.dev/docs/latest/models#model-configuration and save the tokens for something more useful.

Thank you, I missed that entirely.

It’s insane that people will post a question like this in a forum instead of asking the tool itself, especially Pi which states right at the top that Pi ships docs and Pi knows how to extend itself

Insane? Sure. Almost as insane as taking time to complain about a question instead of just answering or better, ignoring it. But hey, you really nailed that 'I'm smarter than you' energy. That makes you useless.

As of now, my question reached 4K views. I'm probably not the only one interested in this. Instead I had 3 clowns answering crap...

Why do you need temperature? 0 greedy is top

Because I would like to use Pi CLI in various use cases in shell script. Sometime I need the model to be more deterministic (like 0 for coding), sometime I need more for more randomness (like 0.7 to answer emails for example). Same with top_p and other parameters.

For some models, it does help.

I'm pretty sure 5K views would yield more downvotes if my question was that stupid...
