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?

Sorry to ask, but I couldn't find anything that would help me understand what's this project about exactly, the GitHub repo does provide details and the informations here sound a bit blurry, however your hype about it makes it feel like it's something big and important, which is why I had to ask, if you could provide more clarity around and about this project?

@SsxChaos Of course - that's a good question! 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
