The Absolute Beginner's Guide to Using a Proxy with Janitor Part One

Accepted Answer

Hello! Welcome. You've heard people talking about "proxies" and "new models" and want to see what all the fuss is about. The good news is that it's surprisingly simple. This guide will walk you through it, step-by-step. We'll get you from zero to chatting with a powerful new AI model in just a few minutes. Our Plan:

Part 1: The "Why?" - We'll quickly explain what a proxy is and why you want one. (No technical jargon, promise!)
Part 2: The "How?" - A step-by-step walk-through to get your very first proxy running for free.
Part 3: The "What's Next?" - Now that you're a pro, we'll explore other models and options.
Part 4: The "Oh No!" - A simple guide to fixing things if they go wrong.

Part 1: The "Why?" - Understanding the Basics

So, what is Janitor.AI's default model?

JanitorAI has its own, free AI model called JanitorLLM (or JLLM). Think of it as the "brain" that powers the characters you chat with. It's good, but there are many other, very different brains out there.

And what is a "Model"?

A "Model" (or Large Language Model/LLM) is just that: the AI brain. Different models have different personalities. Some are better at creative writing, some are smarter, some have better memory, and some are less filtered. Using a new model can completely change your roleplaying experience for the better.

What is a "Proxy"?

A proxy is simply a bridge. It's the service that connects JanitorAI to these powerful new models. To

OpenRouter Error Guide

OR Proxy Error Guide

Things break sometimes, and when they do, you get weird, cryptic error messages. This guide translates those messages into plain language and tells you exactly what went wrong and how to fix it. Whether it’s a wrong model name, too many tokens, or just the provider having a bad day, this section has your back.

Fix-It First: Proxy Error Basics

Before you worry about what the error message says, take a second to make sure your setup isn’t just… being fussy. Step 1: Open your config and check if it says Active. If it doesn’t, click to activate it. Step 2: Now hit Save Settings, yes, even if you didn’t change anything. Step 3: Then refresh the entire Janitor.AI page.

Step 4: Once you’re back in, re-open your config and click `Test`. If things still aren’t working, that’s when it’s time to match your error message to the quick guide below.

Proxy Errors

“This model’s maximum context length is X tokens. However, you requested Y tokens…” (400)

You’ve overloaded the model with too many tokens. That includes your bot personality, your message, Chat Memory(CM), Advanced Prompt(AP) Fix: Use shorter messages, trim down memory, or switch to a smaller/simpler bot.

“Prompt tokens limit X > Y. To increase…” (402)

You don’t have enough balance for the request. Fix: Use a free model (:free at the end), add credits, or upgrade your OpenRouter plan to increase limits.

Question 3

What Are Scripts - A Beginner Friendly Overview

Accepted Answer

What Are Scripts? (Overview)

Scripts is like giving your character a smart assistant that whispers helpful information in their ear during conversations. Instead of your character always being exactly the same, Scripts help them react naturally to what's happening in your chat.

Important: Think of Scripts like sticky notes that appear just for the current message. They don't permanently change your character unless you specifically build that with Advanced scripts.

What Are Scripts?

Imagine your character has an invisible friend sitting next to them during your conversation. This friend:

Knows tons of background information about your world
Pays attention to what you're talking about
Occasionally whispers relevant details to your character
Sometimes stays quiet to keep things natural

That's exactly what Scripts do! They automatically sprinkle in relevant information when certain topics come up.

Important: Only YOU Trigger Scripts

Here's something super important that might confuse you at first: Scripts only wake up when YOU (the user) say the keywords, not when your character says them.

Example:

Your character has a lorebook entry for "Clare" (their best friend)
You say: Tell me about Clare" → The Clare entry activates ✅
Your character responds: "Clare is my best friend from college" → Nothing activates ❌ Think of it like: Your invisible assistant only listens to you, not to what your character says back. This prevents
