Attachments

You can attach configuration text and images to supplement the theme text.

Types of Attachments

Attachments in this app are handled in the following categories:

• Text files: Text files with .txt or .md extensions. Loaded as plain text.
• Theme files: Text files with YAML front matter at the beginning.
• Image files: Commonly .jpg and .png image files (limited to what the AI model accepts).
• b64 files: Text files with .b64 extension. Decoded and loaded as plain text.

Text Files

• Attached text files are sent to the AI as an extension of the theme text. There is almost no difference in handling from the theme text.

Theme Files

• A format for attachment files that come with a theme text set, for when it's tedious to enter the theme text each time.
• If the YAML front matter contains a theme field, it is automatically treated as a theme file.
• The format looks like this:

---
theme: |
  Alice's Adventures in Akihabara:
  Alice wanders into Akihabara chasing a white rabbit.
---

(Configuration text follows)

Image Files

• For when you have an image but it's tedious to describe it in text, you can attach images.
• To save tokens, the AI reads information from the image during the first scene generation, records the key points internally, and then discards the image.
  • In other words, you cannot use it like a map to "look back later and extract information."
• Use for character appearances, etc.
• Ignored if the AI being used cannot read images.

b64 Files

• Loads base64-encoded text as an attachment. The app decodes it and sends it to the AI as plain text.
• Implemented for when "you want someone to play with this setting, but reading the setting would spoil it."
