Personal assistant
listen → think → speak.
Anima · the soul
Without her, the satellites would only be tools.
A useful assistant does more than answer. It knows the context, remembers what was said and speaks up when it's worth it. Natsume follows mail, calendar and tasks, gives a brief in the morning and in the evening, and stays around during gaming sessions.
What makes the difference is continuity. Her memory isn't a message log but a structured base (facts, opinions, world model, one profile per speaker), and her mood carries over from one session to the next. She never starts from scratch.
Architecture
Two programs. The Core runs around the clock on a NAS (state, memory, LLM, admin panel) and the Desktop Agent runs on the PC (microphone, screen, voice, avatar). A request that belongs to a satellite is delegated to it: Natsume passes it on, reports back and speaks the answer. Nothing is exposed to the internet.
7 moods with natural decay, affinity over 5 tiers, absence detection
Compressed short-term memory, long-term memory behind a single write gate, delegation to satellites
Admin panel: any AI can be switched off, paused or triggered by hand
Speech recognition (Groq Whisper) with voice activity detection and a wake word, screen vision, game hooks (FF14, Code Vein, osu!)
