What it does
Most AI writing tools forget what they wrote two chapters ago. Chronicle keeps a real story bible — characters, locations, relationships, plot threads, timeline — and feeds all of it into every generation call, so a 100K-word novel stays consistent. It runs 100% locally on your own LM Studio or Ollama model: no cloud, no subscription, no account, manuscript never leaves your machine. Free beta, Win/Linux.
QuillWork is a free local-only novel-writing tool with an LLM-backed story bible — a private alternative to Sudowrite, NovelAI, and NovelCrafter. Runs on LM Studio or Ollama. No cloud, no subscription, no account.
QuillWork is a local-only novel-writing tool with an LLM-backed story bible — a private alternative to Sudowrite, NovelAI, and NovelCrafter. It talks to a local LLM (LM Studio or Ollama) instead of a cloud API, so no account, no subscription, and nothing about your manuscript ever leaves your computer. Features include a full story bible (characters, locations, relationships, plot threads, timeline), continuity checking, manuscript import, scene generation, and export to Word/PDF/EPUB/Markdown.

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
