1. Make sure Node JS is installed on your system and has access through your firewall.
2. Clone this github repo. (git clone https://github.com/RossAscends/STMP/ in a command line, or use a Github GUI like Github Desktop)
3. Setup the API (see below).
4. Run STMP.bat to install the required Node modules and start the server.
5. On the first run, the server will create an empty secrets.json and a default config.json, as well as the /api-presets/ and /chats/ folders.
6. Open htttp://localhost:8181/ in your web browser.

• STMP can also be installed via Docker, thanks to city-unit.
• The Docker file can be found in /utils/

(instructions coming soon)

Currently STMP supports Text Completions (TC) and HordeAI, with TC active by default.

• Obviously, the host must have a Text Completions compatible backend installed and working on their device.
• TabbyAPI and KoboldCPP are confirmed to work with STMP's TC API mode.
• STMP assumes the default server URL of http://127.0.0.1:5000/v1/completions for TC requests.
• KoboldCPP should be run with the --multiUser flag enabled.
• If your TC API requires a key, paste it into secrets.json.
• Other OpenAI-compatible TC APIs are being tested.

• Using Horde requires a SillyTavern server to be running on your local machine to handle the Horde requests.
• IMPORTANT: ST must be running with CSRF turned off.
• IMPORTANT: STMP assumes you have BasicAuthentication enabled on your ST server, and requires you to input your username:pass into secrets.json.
• STMP assumes the default ST server URL of http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/horde/generate-text for Horde requests.
• If you have a HordeID set in SillyTavern, those credentials and kudos will be used.

• The Host can click the emoji icon at the top left to change which API is used.
• 📑 = Text Completions
• 🧟 = Horde

This must be done AFTER completing all installation steps above.

1. Run Remote-Link.cmd to download (only one time, 57MB) and auto-run cloudflared.exe to get a randomly generated tunnel URL for your server.
2. Share the generated cloudflared URL with the guest users.
3. User will be able to directly and securely connect to your PC using the Cloudflare URL.

• Place any SillyTavern compatible character card into the /characters/ folder and refresh the page.
• Character can be selected at the top of the AI Chat panel.
• If new characters are added while the server is running, the Host must refresh their browser page to see them.
• the AI character can be changed at any time without resetting the chat.

• If you want to add more presets for Instruct formats or hyperparameter Samplers, put the JSON file into the appropriate folder:
• Samplers go in /public/api-presets/
• Instruct formats go in/public/instructFormats/
• It's highly reccomended to review the structure of the default STMP preset files.
• SillyTavern preset files may not work, or may have unintended effects!

• Chatting can be done in either chat windows by typing into the appropriate box and then either pressing the Send button (✏️), or pressing Enter.
• Shift+Enter can be used to add newlines to the input.
• Markdown formatting is respected.
• (▶️/⏸️) allows for manual disconnect/reconnect to the server.

The host will see the following controls:

• Controls for changing API settings such as: API (Text Completions(📑) or HordeAI(🧟)), Context size, Response length, Sampler presets, and Instruct formats
• AutoAI Toggle to determine whether the AI should respond to every user input, or only on command from the Host.
• A text box to define the Final Instruction to send as system at Depth 1 in the prompt.
• A list of past AI Chats, click to load one.
• (🔄) refreshes the Past AI Chats list (usually not necessary as it is auto-refreshed with each new AI chat message)
• (◀️) toggles visibility of the Host Control Panel.

• A selector to set the active AI character

• (🗑️) to clear either chat.

• (🔑) opens a text box for input of the Host key in order to gain the Host role.
• once the key has been entered, the page will automatically refresh to show the host controls.
• the Host key can be found in the server console at startup.
• After the user enters the key and presses Enter, their page will refresh and they will see the Host controls.

• (🤖) Manually triggering an AI response without user Input
• (✂️) Deleting the last message in the AI Chat
• (🔄) Retry, i.e. Remove the last chat message and prompt the AI character to give a new response.

• Use the text boxes at the top of the screen to change your username(s) at any time.
• You can have a different name for the User Chat and AI Chat.
• Usernames are stored in browser localStorage.
• (⛔) clears the saved Usernames and UniqueID from localStorage.

• Smarter retry logic (add entity metadata to each chat message; only remove the last AI response)
• Custom OpenAI text completion compatible API endpoint selection

• Toggle for locking AI chat for users? (this is already kind of done with AutoResponse off)
• Drag-sort list to set User Turn Order for AI chatting?
• Allow API key/Authentication information to be set via the UI.
• Ability to rename chats.
• ability to remove any message in the chat, not just the last.
• ability to edit the text of a chat
• ability for Host to edit a User's role from the UI
• ability to change the max length of chat inputs (currently 1000 characters)

• Multiple AI characters active at once (group chats)
• Download chats as text, JSON, or SillyTavern-compatible JSONL?
• UI themes?
• Bridge extension for SillyTavern to enable intra-server communication.
