import asyncio
import json


async def run():
    async with Copilot() as cp:

        while True:

            async for line in cp.ask_stream(thread_id, question):
                response = line.replace("data: ", "")
                try:
                    response = json.loads(response)
                except json.decoder.JSONDecodeError:
                    continue
                if response["type"] == "content":
                    print(response["body"], end="")

                    break
            print("-----")
        await cp.generate_title(thread_id)
