As titled, when AutoGPT executes a command, such as "mkdir", it only returns STDOUT: b'' and STDERR: b''. How can I verify if the shell command was executed or not? I am using GPT-3.5 in continuous mode.

Command line

Steps Taken

• Pulled main branch of Auto GPT through this commit (midday Saturday 4/22/23)
• Used the following command to download the system info plugin to the plugins folder: Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://github.com/hdkiller/Auto-GPT-SystemInfo/archive/refs/heads/master.zip" -OutFile "./plugins/Auto-GPT-SystemInfo.zip"
• I did not unzip the file
• I made 3 changes to the Auto GPT .env file:
• EXECUTE_LOCAL_COMMANDS=True
• RESTRICT_TO_WORKSPACE=True
• ALLOWLISTED_PLUGINS=SystemInformationPlugin
• I attempted to start an Auto GPT session. After taking my goals, but before asking for permission to proceed with the first action, Auto GPT crashed with the output shown in the screenshot above.

System Information

• Windows 10
• Python 3.10.5
• AutoGPT - Master Branch, through this commit

Potentially helpful context from GPT 4:

Sure, I can help you with this. The error "IndexError: tuple index out of range" is occurring because you are trying to access an index in the tuple win_ver that doesn't exist. The platform.win32_ver() function returns a tuple of strings, and the length of the tuple might be less than 5.

To fix this, you can check the length of the win_ver tuple before accessing its elements. Here's an updated version of the code block:

# Get Windows version (works on Windows only)
if platform.system() == "Windows":
    win_ver = platform.win32_ver()
    win_version = f"{win_ver[0]} {win_ver[1]}"
    if len(win_ver) > 4:
        win_version += f" {win_ver[4]}"
else:
    win_version = None

This code will make sure that the tuple has at least 5 elements before trying to access the element at index 4. If the tuple has fewer elements, it will only include the first two elements in the win_version string.

running this: curl -o ./plugins/Auto-GPT-SystemInfo.zip https://github.com/hdkiller/Auto-GPT-SystemInfo/archive/refs/heads/master.zip breaks chatgpt, give message that this is not a true zip file.

hi, any ideas why i'm being asked for a .env file? didn't see anything about it in the setup.

Can you help me declare in the new structure?
plugin_a:
config:
api_key: my-api-key
enabled: false
plugin_b:
config: {}
enabled: true

Howdy, turns out you solved a problem that I just spent an hour fixing.

Just wanting to say, as I mentioned on the Auto-GPT project, I ended up using lsb_release -a (on Linux obviously) to provide surrounding context, and I use a "preparation" step before running shell commands, to get their version info via the equivalent of --version to get customized commands for the underlying environment.

The idea was prior to executing a shell command to check a local json file which serves as key/value storage, to look up the location(path)/version number of each command and use that info for future invocations.

So the basic idea [on *nix] was:

• lsb_release -a (once during init)
• cat /proc/cpuinfo (once during init)
• cat /proc/meminfo (to show resource utilization at runtime)
• which $TOOL (look up the path/location of the tool), store the unix time or md5hash of the tool, to update the JSON if needed
• $TOOL --version (determine the installed version)

and store the corresponding data inside a JSON file for later use.

More specifically, I figured out that this contextual information is much more useful and effective if it is only conditionally added directly prior to running shell commands, as per: Significant-Gravitas/AutoGPT#2987 (comment)

Maybe some food for thought ...

Thanks & all the best
