I would want to work on docker setup and after done on ram/cpu usage tracking

Go ahead with the docker setup (you might need to add code to create the sqlite file if it doesn't exist), but I want to handle the CPU/memory tracking because that goes into monitoring cache calls (which I expect you don't know because it isn't documented)

api-client to oaast-shared is tracked here: https://github.com/LAION-AI/Open-Assistant/issues/243

I've reworked initial Dockerfile with this issue, so that now it starts successfully. #241

Container is launching successfully. So I assume Docker can be ticked

There was also a minor issue when starting container with non-empty environments. Fixed it in #292

Testing/usability feeedback:

1. Have you tested with longer, e.g. 1000 character prompts/conversations and conversations of depth 3 (e.g. after User and Assistant both said something 2x)? If I add a reaction to the bot message for testing it still looks like one big message... (long messages will exceed the discord size limit and in the log channel won't allow individual reactions.)
2. Display the prompt/conversation-reply submitted by the user in the log-channel so that it becomes publicly visible... currently only general stats/activity is shown. Post the individual messages of the conversation as separate discrod-messages so that (other) users could respond to them individually via emoji reactions.
3. The help menu with step-through next >, < prev buttons is in my opinion not helpful, please print one or multiple messages with available commands and some general information.
4. The timeout of the private bot-session is set too low, please make it configurable in seconds, default to 600.
5. Please add a colon at the end of "Enter response here:"
6. Please move task instructions like "Reply with the numbers of best to worst replies separated by commas (example: '4,1,3,2')" to the bottom.. e.g. below the ranking-options, so that the comma delimited example is visible just above the discord-input text-box at the bottom of the screen.

4-6 fixed in #357 3 is on the list already 1 is waiting on the protocol to allow for multiple messages 2 What should I display? Only what the user sends? The full task description + user input?

Closing all old discord bot issues. Discord data collection never took off. It might be more viable to develop a discord bot that communicates with the inference system.
