Describe the Bug

I have built a wrapper on top of ChatGPT API and save messages into my MongoDB. I would like to use my own IDs as messageIds, but I've noticed that when I pass messageId to sendMessage it's saved into parentMessageId on complete. Why is it so? How do I fix this?

Mmh... I've tried chaining messages as in the examples and it doesn't work: If I pass the current res.id to the next sendMessage as parentMessageId it's basically just spawning a new chat with the prompt... Why is it doing that?

The following is my entry in the DB:

This is where I send the former completion id as parentMessageId to a new prompt:

It answers that he can speak in French, but I'd have expected the output text of the "Golden Circle" wrote in Franch.

Follows a full convo test (which I don't think is working as expected). As you can see I'm feeding Output.id into Input.parentMessageId. Why is it choosing whatever parentMessageId it wants from one message to the next?

[transitive-bullshit]

This project is undergoing a major revamp; closing out old issues as part of the prep process.

The chatgpt package is pretty outdated at this point. I recommend that you use the openai package or the openai-fetch package instead.
