Delimiter Guide

Orange text = optional fields.

Markdown & AliChat

Upon testing with various 7B Q6 locally hosted models, I've found a combination of Markdown & AliChat is a safe and comparable alternative to PList.

Markdown

• Easy updates

• Logical grouping

• Clear relationship mapping

AliChat

• Clear, structured details

• Consistent formatting

• Token efficiency

Markdown Basic Rules

• End each category with a line break (\n) instead of a semicolon (;)

• Use # headings to organize sections. They’re clearer and less likely to cause errors than square brackets ([])
