SET_USER Keyword
The SET_USER keyword defines the active user context for the current bot session.
It associates all subsequent actions, memory entries, and responses with a specific user identity.
Syntax
SET_USER "user-id"
Parameters
"user-id"— A unique identifier (UUID or username) representing the user.
This value is used to link session data, memory, and logs to the correct user record.
Description
SET_USER updates the bot’s internal session to reflect the specified user identity.
This is typically used after authentication or when switching between users in multi-user environments.
Once set, all commands such as SET_CONTEXT, SET_BOT_MEMORY, and FIND operate within the scope of that user.
If the user ID does not exist in the database, the system automatically creates a new user record.
The command ensures that the session token and memory cache are properly synchronized.
Example
' Set the active user for the session
SET_USER "john_doe"
' Store personalized memory
SET_BOT_MEMORY "preferred_language" "English"
' Retrieve user-specific data
FIND "recent orders"
Implementation Notes
- Implemented in Rust under
src/session/mod.rsandsrc/org/mod.rs. - The keyword interacts with the session manager to update the active user ID.
- It ensures that all subsequent operations are scoped to the correct user context.
- If cache component or database caching is enabled, the user ID is stored for persistence across sessions.

SET_CONTEXT— Defines the operational context for the session.SET_BOT_MEMORY— Stores persistent data for the bot or user.GET_BOT_MEMORY— Retrieves stored memory entries.
Summary
SET_USER is essential for maintaining user-specific state and personalization in GeneralBots.
It ensures that each session operates independently and securely under the correct user identity.
