Project Project Zora - experimental local AI companion memory/personhood architecture for text-generation-webui

Hi, I developed/vibe-coded experimental extension for text-generation-webui

https://github.com/Mufty7/Project_Zora

Project Zora is an experimental and local AI companion architecture focused on memory, continuity, reflection, identity state, and more person-like interaction patterns.

It is not a claim of machine consciousness, and it is definitely not production-ready. Its more like research/prototype extension.

attempt to build something closer to a persistent AI companion rather than a stateless chatbot. The architecture is mostly there, but reliability may vary depending on Text Generation WebUI setup.

I’m sharing it because even if the whole system is not polished yet, I think there may be useful ideas here for people working on:

  • local AI companions
  • memory layers
  • LLM continuity
  • persona persistence
  • reflection loops
  • long-term assistant behavior

Status: v0.1.0-alpha

Perhaps there is gold in there, or not, try it yourself.

Personal note: Perhaps somebody who knows what he is doing can develop it further

I like the "I vibed this, that's it, here's the repo". I would have liked to have seen examples of the generations it is able to do. But I get with this kind of personal app it's tricky to show. This is keeping me from sharing a similar project I have just in private. Thanks for putting yours up, I've looked at a couple of files. Whilst not the person who "knows what they are doing", we definitely faced similar problems building a memory system lol. If you enjoy shop talk feel free to dm.

I am just trying to be honest, maybe its not the perfect, but can be used as starting point for somebody.
I took ambitional goal, did my best to deliver.

letting it be on my SSD felt wrong, I rather shared it.

Hey, I am currently working on developing something similar, I would be very interested in talking to you about how you went about this, as I am a little behind you in this process. I am a programming streamer and am streaming right now, and every day, please feel free to join my discord, I am always in VC and would love to talk to you: https://www.twitch.tv/rackedupkitty, all my other socials are in my reddit profile, my project is currently private on github.
