Introducing Tempo’s Chat Modes

Welcome to a new era of coding efficiency with Tempo’s Reasoning Agents. By combining Gemini’s powerful reasoning capabilities and Claude 3.7’s precise code execution, you’ll enjoy the best accuracy and speed in your development workflow. We’ve also added Search Mode so you can pull in external information directly into your chats.

​
Chat Modes Overview

Tempo offers three distinct chat modes. Here’s how each one works:
  1. Normal Mode
    • Model: Claude 3.7
    • Use Case: General-purpose conversations, code generation, and quick debugging.
    • Benefits: Fast, reliable replies for day-to-day coding questions or brainstorming.
  2. Reasoning Mode
    • Model: Gemini + Claude 3.7 for large context reasonsing
    • Use Case: Deep analysis of your codebase, planning out changes, and identifying files to modify.
    • Benefits: Leverages Gemini’s large context window for thorough understanding of your entire codebase, providing methodical and accurate guidance.
  3. Search Mode
    • Model: Claude 3.7 + Gemini for Internet Search
    • Use Case: When you need immediate external information (e.g., API documentation, design patterns, reference solutions).
    • Benefits: Brings external resources right into your chat, so you can quickly gather information without leaving your coding environment.

​
How the Workflow Operates

  1. Deep Reasoning (Gemini)
    1. Context Analysis: Gemini takes advantage of its largest-in-industry context window, scanning your entire codebase.
    2. Strategic Plan: It outlines a thought process for the changes to be made and which files need changes.
  2. Code Execution (Claude 3.7)
    1. Implement Changes: Once Gemini’s plan is ready, Claude 3.7 precisely edits the relevant files.
    2. Validate & Verify: Claude’s high accuracy ensures that any modifications align perfectly with your project’s structure.

​
Enhanced Search Functionality

  • Integrated Search: In Search Mode, you can fetch external data (tutorials, API docs, design inspiration) without leaving the chat.
  • Contextual Insights: Results are merged with your chat context, so the AI can immediately reference them in subsequent suggestions.

​
Why This Matters

  • Accuracy: Gemini’s deep understanding of your codebase drastically reduces errors.
  • Efficiency: Claude 3.7 is widely regarded as the best coding LLM, ensuring high-quality changes.
  • Productivity: Built-in search eliminates the need to switch between tools, streamlining your workflow.

​
Getting Started

  1. Open the Chat Interface: Select the mode you need from the mode selector (Normal, Reasoning, or Search).
  2. Ask Your Question or Give a Task:
    • Reasoning Mode for big-picture planning or multiple-file changes.
    • Search Mode if you need external references first.
    • Normal Mode for straightforward Q&A or coding help.
  3. Review & Approve: Look over the suggestions before finalizing changes in your code.

​
Example Use Case

  1. Switch to Reasoning Mode to get Gemini’s plan for refactoring your authentication module.
  2. Review the Plan. Gemini will outline which files to modify and why.
  3. Switch to Normal Mode to let Claude 3.7 implement those changes.
  4. Search Mode if you need additional references like best-practice docs or library usage examples.

​
Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does Search Mode cost extra? A: Search Mode uses your available prompts. All external queries are processed alongside your chat context to ensure a seamless experience. Q: What if I don’t see the chat Modes A: This means you are either on a Free plan or on an old Paid plan. Only new paid plans have access to multiple chat modes.
