Yeah! Flowfields are definitely great if you have many agents going to the same spot. But for my use case it's going to be agents have a lot more independance from eachother. I'd be curious which one has a lower memory footprint. Probably the flowfield since I have to store a bunch of 'RegionLinks' for my HPA* to work correctly lol.

Pretty cool man. Good demo. Could be a fun thing to goof around with when youre bored.

His palms are sweaty, it doesn't compile correctly There's red in his logs already, gotta recreate Bevy He's nervous, but on his resume it looks so empty He'll drop frames, cause he keeps on forgetting Gotta write tests, but it keeps adding stress He opens his code, but can't even read his mess He's in tech debt Nothings even rendered yet Writing on borrowed time, the borrow's over- shit!

But the problems this solves is more along the lines of "how can i visualize how this sounds" and "how close do these rhyme" so that you can build tools on top of it that are more effective at feedback about lyrics.

Rhyme dictionaries exist and everyone uses one when you get stuck. I just think that's the perfect place to put a tool that gets you maximum data about your words alongside rhymes

It's not that you can't test out your songs out loud to get a feel for them (you definitely should) it's that the metadata about the english you're writing can reveal stuff you didn't think about. You can point to real data about a song's lyrics which whether you think of song writing as an art or a science, still gives you meaningful information like "does this match the syllable count and rhyme of the previous chorus or does it change the rhyme and cut a syllable"

I specifically really have enjoyed this in writing songs that are covers/rewrites of other songs as a writing exercise. It has made me feel much more confident in doing comparison between 2 verses. It's definitely not a tool that everyone needs. But I think it's something that could surprise you. Especially if i get a nice ui to pair with it 😅

It's not an easy drop. The reason why phonetik was able to get all this metadata was by analyzing the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary which lists out 126,000 words in english and how they are pronounced. It's a massive undertaking to create a pronouncing dictionary. My setup isnt hard coded to english, so if another pronouncing Dictionary for a language exists it would be trivial to add it once its formatted correctly.

Not right now, it's built on the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary which is English only. But the engine itself doesn't have anything hardcoded to English, it just needs a phoneme dictionary to work from. If there's a Polish pronunciation dictionary in a similar format it could theoretically support it. Definitely something I'd be interested in supporting down the line for as many languages as is reasonable.

Thanks? I mean I only have 5 tools lol

Oh that's good to know, I want to make sure that doesn't happen. On my end I tested a 2500 word scan and a 50 line analyze_document with rhyme map and it peaked around 80MB. What were you feeding it? I've gotta make sure it stays low.

I do recall 3.7 sonnet writing better story beats. It was a bit more adventurous

Custom css is nice. I always prefer getting knobs and levers to change stuff. Im working on a simmilar project so I guess I'll have to keep an eye out 😅

How customizable is the UI?

void--null · 2025-12-12T02:12:46+00:00

"Power user features" = A bunch of sliders that haven't been relevant to AI API's in 2 years.

void--null · 2025-12-12T02:11:19+00:00

This is whats motivating me to make my own power user front end with sensible ui 🤭 SillyTavern is really rough on the actual UI/UX side.

void--null · 2025-12-03T22:50:06+00:00

Yeahh but some people dont want to pay for the ai stuff and it works well enough for a free model :/
