What is SillyTavern?

Brought to you by Cohee, RossAscends, and the SillyTavern community, SillyTavern is a local-install interface that allows you to interact with text generation AIs (LLMs) to chat and roleplay with custom characters.

SillyTavern originated as a modification of TavernAI 1.2.8 in February 2023, and has since added many cutting edge features not present in the original TavernAI.

Features

• Mobile-friendly interface
• Multiple backend API connectivity (KoboldAI, KoboldCPP, AI Horde, NovelAI, Oobabooga's TextGen WebUI, OpenAI+proxies, Poe.com, WindowAI)
• Visual Novel-like Waifu Mode
• Horde Stable Diffusion generation
• TTS support (ElevenLabs, Silero, and built-in OS)
• WorldInfo (lorebooks)
• Customizable colors, backgrounds, avatar styles, and UI panel placement
• Notification sound for AI responses
• Export chats as .txt files
• Auto-translate single messages or the entire chat via Google API, even automatically.
• Extensive prompt formatting options
• Character HotSwap buttons to quickly change between your favorite characters
• Prompt token breakdown view for each message
• Swipes
• Group chats: multi-bot rooms for characters to talk to you or each other
• Chat bookmarks / branching
• Soft prompts via KoboldAI
• webp character card interoperability (PNG is still the internal format)

Extensions

SillyTavern supports extensions/plugins:

• Author's Note / Character Bias
• Character emotional expressions
• Auto-Summary of the chat history
• Sending images to chat, and the AI interpreting the content.
• Stable Diffusion image generation (5 chat-related presets plus 'free mode')
• Text-to-speech for AI response messages (via ElevenLabs, Silero, or the OS's System TTS)

Additional functionality can be added by using SillyTavern Extras.
