Control NEX Response Verbosity
Adjust How Much Detail NEX Provides
When working with complex EDA tools, your need for detail changes based on the task. Sometimes you need a comprehensive, deep-dive explanation of a module; other times, you just need the bottom-line answer.
The /verbosity command in NEX allows you to directly control how much detail the agent provides, adapting its output to your current workflow.
Choose the Right Verbosity Level
The command offers three distinct modes, each tailoring the AI's internal processing and final output:
- High (Default): The agent provides a deep, comprehensive response. Thinking boxes are enabled, allowing you to see the reasoning the agent used to arrive at its conclusion. Ideal for complex debugging or learning a new architecture.
- Medium: The agent provides a balanced, standard explanation. Thinking boxes are hidden, keeping the interface cleaner while still delivering enough detail to fully understand the result.
- Low: The agent provides brief, direct answers. Thinking boxes are hidden, and the system enables "caveman prompt compression" for terser, highly condensed replies. Perfect for quick checks or experienced users who just need the raw data.
Good to know
Changing the verbosity level affects how much explanation NEX provides, not the task it performs. You can switch levels at any time during a session.
Changing the Verbosity
You can change the verbosity level at any time during your session. Simply type /verbosity followed by your desired level:
# For maximum detail and visible reasoning
>: /verbosity high
# For a balanced, standard response
>: /verbosity medium
# For the shortest, most direct answers
>: /verbosity low

By adjusting the verbosity, NEX adapts to exactly how much detail you need, exactly when you need it.
