Swarm Assistent

SwarmUI extension for collaborative Krea 2 prompting via Ollama: chat + board (Generate | Refs tabs), LoRA chips, persona presets (Config/personas/), vector memory, model cards with Civitai fetch, img2img/inpaint, slash commands, auto Generate.

Version 0.9.0 — Persona shelves (short JSON files, nested identity markdown), per-persona Exact controls (e.g. Leonid preference_bias slider), overlay clone/author pack (/persona new), UI-only delete for overlay personas. Chats/UI/taste stay in assistent.sqlite.

Layout

• Left — Board tabs: Generate (full-height live view) | Refs (reference grid + badge N · vision M); Посмотри результат attaches the finished frame and asks for a verdict
• Splitter: drag to resize panes
• Right: Chat | Cards; persona / pack / Ollama chat model; Ollama health badge; settings gear (memory model + skills + Память)
• Chips / slash: loaded from Config/_base/ui.json (persona can override)

Config (bundled + overlay)

Config/
  _base/           # defaults (assistant, ui, models/krea2, exact.json, core, packs, skills, memory-seed, identity)
  personas/<id>/   # sparse shelves: persona/bio/voice/humor/… + optional controls.json / exact.json / memory-seed

Disk overlay (wins over bundled): /mnt/swarm_data/Assistent/ — same folder layout as Config/. Drop _base/… and personas/<id>/… to override. Plus runtime state:

Assistent/
  _base/ personas/<id>/    # overlay presets — same names as Config/, sparse
  settings.json            # embed_model, base_url, per-persona skills
  ollama-roles.json        # chat vs memory model tags (gpu-rent writes this)
  memory/assistent.sqlite  # vector memory + tags FTS + chats + ui_state + taste
  _migrated_json/          # one-shot archive of old chats/*.json, ui-state.json, taste.json

Copy personas/leonid/ → new id, edit only differing JSON. See Config/personas/README.md.

Controls: optional controls.json schema + exact.controls values. UI shows sliders; LLM may patch "controls": {…}. Values persist in overlay Exact (not session_exact).

Authoring: pack author_persona + /persona new clones to overlay only. Delete overlay personas with the ✕ button (never from the model).

Exact memory (KV)

• Config/_base/exact.json — canonical generation defaults, profiles (turbo/raw), aspect table, short facts
• Persona / disk overlays merge via DeepMerge (matching keys overwrite)
• Always injected into the system prompt; UI fills empty SwarmUI fields from Exact (no LLM call)
• Chat-session overrides (session_exact) last until persona change or clear chat — not written to disk
• Priority: core contract → current user → session_exact → exact (+ persona) → live fields → vector memory_hits

Vector memory

Two layers in memory/assistent.sqlite (persona column; empty = shared):

• Shared — Config/_base/memory-seed/, model cards, scope: "shared" upserts. Visible to every persona.
• Personal — Config/personas/<id>/memory-seed/ and chat upserts (default). Never copied into shared. Other personas do not retrieve it.
• Retrieve = shared ∪ this persona (and extends parents). Hybrid FTS5 + cosine, kind quotas (e.g. 3 cards / 3 pitfalls / 4 notes), min_score. Same kind+key: personal overwrites parent overwrites shared.
• Tools: memory_get, memory_search, lookup_tags (Danbooru csv in Data/Autocompletions, FTS, no embeddings).
• SQLite + Ollama /api/embed (default nomic-embed-text, pick in ⚙)
• Soft notes only — Exact and the user beat RAG for params
• ⚙ → Память lists every row (scope · source · date) with a per-row forget; bundled rows are read-only because reseed brings them back

Chats and runtime KV

• Every chat (messages + Generate params snapshot) is a row in assistent.sqlite, newest 200 kept. History search uses FTS over title + body.
• First launch after 0.8.3 copies chats/*.json, ui-state.json, and taste.json into sqlite, then archives them under _migrated_json/.
• localStorage stays as a fast cache; on first run with an empty store the old swarm_assistent_chats_v1 browser history is migrated up once.
• UI state seeds a fresh browser only — anything already in localStorage wins, and auto_download is never restored as on
• settings.json and persona overlays stay files (layered merge + git). .assistent.json cards stay next to weights.

VRAM handover

• Before every Generate the chat model is unloaded (keep_alive: 0) so Krea 2 gets the whole GPU
• Back in the Chat tab it is warmed again with a 1-token request (keep_alive 15m, num_ctx from assistant.json)
• Embed / memory models are never parked — reloading them would stall every retrieve

UX

• Send to Assistent under Generate/History → Ref + Assistent tab
• Enter sends; Shift+Enter newline; Interrupt cancels chat epoch
• Manual Apply + Generate / /gen always generate; Auto-generate checkbox only for LLM auto-path
• Посмотри результат / auto-critique wait for a real Generate frame — model previews and unfinished batches are skipped
• Civitai Confirm required (unless auto-download); queued-but-missing models show a ⏳ wanted badge in Cards

Slash commands (client-side, no LLM)

Command	Effect
/help	List commands
/debug	Short UI/Exact dump (no LLM)
/debug ask / /why	Dump + short model explanation
/gen	Generate now
/look generate|refN	Attach that board window + ask the LLM to look
/init /mask /clear	Same as board buttons
/interrupt	Stop generation / cancel chat
/aspect 16:9	Set size from the official 1K table
/seed lock|random	Lock or randomize seed
/vary	New seed, same prompt (+ generate if auto)
/pack write|critique|…	Switch pack
/civitai <query>	Ask LLM to search Civitai
/inventory	Rescan models + refresh LoRA list

Requirements

• SwarmUI with a Krea 2 checkpoint selected
• Ollama on http://127.0.0.1:11434 on the GPU VM (gpu-rent LLM_RUNTIME=ollama)
• Chat model + memory embed (use: memory in ollama-models.yaml; gpu-rent creates CPU variant)
• Optional: Civitai API key in SwarmUI User Settings

Install

swarmui:
  - url: https://gitea.hsrv.site/mrleo1nid/swarm-assistent.git
    ref: main
    dir: swarm-assistent
    requires: ollama

Restart / rebuild SwarmUI after clone. gpu-rent: seed-extensions + restart.

Packs & skills

Packs (one active): write_prompt, critique_image, compose_scene, fix_params, inpaint_edit, describe_ref, catalog_card.

Skills (checkboxes): prompting, creativity_sliders, memory — procedures; encyclopedia numbers live in Exact, soft notes in memory-seed / RAG.

Personas: neutral, lewd, aggressive, cinema, terse, leonid under Config/personas/. Overlay clones via /persona new.
