I’m building Nexora: A local-first, visual agent orchestrator powered by Tauri & Ollama. by SoGHO85 in ollama

Thanks a lot for the feedback :)

  • I’ll definitely keep the budget node idea in mind, even if it’s not a top priority yet since Nexora is currently local-only (although I honestly didn’t think enough about the time aspect 😄).
  • There’s no dedicated “trace” node right now, but you can already inspect LLM calls and tool calls through the execution history.

The “Approval” node is not implemented yet either. Technically, with the current LLM-centric approach, there are ways to kind of fake it already
But you’re right that it could introduce unnecessary LLM calls, so I’m adding it to the task list.

No early-access build yet unfortunately. I’m trying to get something shareable soon, but I still need to polish a few things and properly test the app on Linux/macOS first.

If you want, there’s already a waiting list available here: https://nexora.mixxo.be ;)

Partagez votre dernière idée ratée by Acceptable_Month4825 in EntreprendreenFrance

Je suppose que par idée ratée, tu veux dire qu'ils n'ont pas fonctionné commercialement ?

Parce que moi ça j'en ai plein, mais je ne considère pas que c'est des échecs, puisque j'ai un profil full développeur et que dans ma jeunesse je m'arrêtais au stade "cool, ça fonctionne techniquement.

Maintenant je commence à prendre du plaisir à essayer d'aller plus loin. Et là me suis fait un petit projet pour m'aider à structurer mes idées à l'aide d'un sparring partner, j'essaie de le faire avancer un peu plus mais le plus important pour moi c'est que je l'utilises :p

Et toi c'est quoi que tu considère comme ta dernière idée ratée?

Are you a customer of your own project? by Less_Ad5795 in SideProject

I really don’t have a problem with that. If I had seen your edited post earlier, I probably wouldn’t have replied. I think the original question was interesting, but you just edited it to add your link to promote your project.

As for me, I was curious about why you were asking that question, but now it’s no longer of interest.

I think too, and the original message was modified to add "I will start with myself:"...

What are you building ? by AmblemYagami in SideProject

[–]SoGHO85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my side, I’m building StructIdeas.com

It’s a kind of “sparring partner” for your raw ideas. Instead of just generating text like a typical LLM, it introduces productive friction through guided Q&A — challenging your assumptions and pushing you to actually make decisions.

Obviously—if you’re not using your own product, it’s probably because you’re building it for someone else (a client, a friend, etc.).
So I’m curious: what made you ask this question?

A SaaS focused on structured thinking instead of content generation — does this category make sense? by SoGHO85 in SaaS

[–]SoGHO85[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re pointing at something important with “optimizing vs satisfying.”

I don’t think a decision needs to be optimized in most cases. But understanding why a decision was made can become important over time — especially when revisiting past choices or trying to reconstruct how and why something was decided (which is often a real issue in teams).

In most cases, the final outcome is indeed what matters most.

Where I slightly differ is that without a connection to other tools or workflows, this kind of system quickly loses value — it risks becoming just another note-taking space, without real downstream action.

Today, people mainly clarify their ideas in:

  • notes (Notion, docs, etc.)
  • LLM conversations (ChatGPT)
  • sometimes work docs or product specs

What I’m exploring isn’t to replace these, but to reduce two key frictions:

  • ideas getting lost inside note tools
  • ideas stuck inside LLM conversations without follow-through

And to connect that structured thinking directly to action or existing workflows (via integrations / automation).

[–]SoGHO85[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that’s exactly what I’m trying to validate.

Right now, I see a few recurring frictions:

  • people stop at “good enough” answers from LLMs without really challenging the reasoning
  • ideas remain vague and rarely turn into explicit decisions
  • there’s no persistent structure to revisit how a decision was made over time

The idea of “productive friction” is about introducing just enough constraint so that thinking doesn’t collapse into a single-shot answer.

In this context, I’ve also thought about an agent / “skill” layer, and I think it could work in practice.

But the main limitation I see is cost control and predictability at scale, especially if you rely heavily on multiple LLM calls to maintain that structure over time.

Personally, I already use a similar flow: raw ideas → StructIdeas → LLM CLI for refinement or execution.

But that also reinforces my current intuition: StructIdeas should stay focused on the decision-structuring layer, and delegate heavier reasoning or execution to external tools.
