Description

Include the Linux system username of the user in the initial system message that gives the LLM its default context for the chat thread. This should allow the LLM to more personally address the user it is interacting with.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look at the code where the initial system message is set; likely in a chat handler or initialization function. Add a call to getpass.getuser() or os.getlogin() to include the username.
