Compass AI (my #opensource project) now supports configurable tools, and these can be given to Characters for them to use during your chat session!

This is just the foundation! More tools will be added - and I’m working on making an editor so you can paste in whatever tool you want and have your characters use it ;)

Second news is I got Windows builds working!
I don’t have a Windows PC to test with right now (and haven’t had time to tinker with a VM) , so if you want to give it a try and let me know how it goes, here’s the link:
https://github.com/compass-ai-chat/compass/releases/tag/v1.0.1

I’ve got a lot planned already - but I’m curious to hear if there’s any feature you want to see in an AI Chat program that no-one’s made yet?

      @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”

        Hey, sorry, I ended up deleting my previous comment and didnt notice you had replied

        But what I miss in other apps are things like being able to do text search in the chats, share files/media into the LLM, just as I would in a chat with a human person, the ability to select a message and ask the llm to regenerate it. To be honest I havent seen many android apps with all this funcionality that are LLM agnostic (meaning I can either plug ollama or another LLM of my choice). The ollama android app is very good but does not support openai/gemini.

          @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 :)

            Yes, I tend to keep relatively long chats with LLM. Spedially when using reasoning models the chat history grows quickly. So being able to search for some text string in a given chat would be helpful. But I understand this might be a not so common use case.

            Awesome that you already have file sharing, I will be sure to take a look!
