weave multiversal writing tool

Weave Icon

Weave is a "multiversal" generative tree writing tool akin to loom. It supports multiple generative backends such as:

  • ✅ drama_llama - llama.cpp wrapper supporting all llama.cpp models
  • ✅ OpenAI models
    • ✅ Shim for GPT 3.5+ chat completions API, including GPT 4o.
  • 🔲 Anthropic models (coming soon, using misanthropic)

Installation

  • Download a release from the releases page and extract it.
  • For macOS and Linux installation will be straightforward with an .app and a Debian package containing a static binary.
  • For Windows, a release is not yet provided but it will probably build for openai with cargo build --release --features="openai,gui". LLaMA will require a bit more work to build on Windows.

Usage

Features

Notable features:

  • Live switching of backends - Generate part of a story with OpenAI and another part with LLaMA -- all without restarting the app.
  • Streaming responses - Cancel generations in progress -- both local and online.
  • Live editing - Edit posts during generation. New tokens are always appended to the end.
  • Advanced sampling controls - For local language models. Use any sampling methods in any order.

Coming soon:

  • Multiple tabs and windows
  • Per-story settings
  • Anthropic models

Additionally, one goal of weave is feature parity with loom.

    • ✅ Combine multiple trees

Notable issues

  • This is alpha software. It may crash. It does auto-save, however you should export your work to JSON if you care about it. It is not guaranteed to be compatible with future versions, however we will try to maintain compatibility as much as possible.
  • With each new generation, all tokens need to be injested again with most backends. This is solvable with drama_llama (longest prefix cache) but not for the OpenAI API. So for OpenAI, it's recommended to generate larger posts. The system prompt is customizable so you can tweak the agent's instructions on verbosity. With Anthropic models, caching will be supported at user-defined breakpoints.
  • It is not currently possible to have a scrollable viewport so it's recommended to collapse nodes if things get cluttered. This is because the nodes are implemented with egui::containers::Window which ignore scrollable areas. This is fixable but not easily and not cleanly. Zoom does work, however (Ctrl + + and Ctrl + -).
