nordwestt@techhub.socialOPto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Compass AI (my #opensource project) now supports configurable tools, and these can be given to Characters for them to use during your chat session!1·3 months ago@miau Hey there - yes that’s a good shout! Been focusing so much on desktop experience, stability and polish
I’ll give the mobile UX a bit more love (it needs some after recent refactors!), and then I’ll try to get it listed on fdroid
Can I ask you weren’t completely satisfied with existing tools? just looking for what I can do better so this doesn’t just feel like “yet another AI app”

Every project has a beginning, and this is the beginning of this one
Been working on it since November last year after I made a PR for OpenWebUI, as I realised that there wasn’t really a lightweight, cross-platform, open “client” for AI (and if there was I hadn’t been able to find it, since I really wanted one!)
So I started working on Compass for fun and kept going.Now it’s pretty stable and polished and I’m ready to start letting people know about it - while I keep working on it and adding features
Feel free to try out the demo at compass-ai.chat where you can also read a bit more

But I’d like to make it more apparent and easier (perhaps accessible straight from the front page)

Yeah, overall I’m putting user experience high - it should be snappy, intuitive and robust
Thanks for the encouragement, and definitely keep an eye out for progress as I’m working on it every day
Hopefully I get Windows build working this week

Different technology but very similar aesthetic. I’m a bit jealous that they already have Windows and MacOS builds working - I’m struggling a bit with that but I know I’ll get there sooner or later ;)
@miau Ahh do you mean text search through ALL chats? so you can find a specific conversation?
We have file sharing for characters, so you can give it access - but yeah I still need to add a little “media” button for the chat so it’s easier to share on-the-go
Regeneration is a good one! And very easy to implement :)
