How to use context in OpenAIAssistantAgent

[lucasmonstrox]

Is possible to use context inside class OpenAIAssistantAgent? Or, when using AssistantAgent is possible to tell the model to use specific assistan_id from openai?

Not for model context. But you can pass thread_id and assistant_id in the constructor to use an existing thread or assistant.

thread_id is not about python thread right? Is like conversation with history?

"Thread" here is an assistant API concept: https://platform.openai.com/docs/assistants/deep-dive#managing-threads-and-messages
