Summary

The developer released Persistent Sage, an AI companion app for the Microsoft App Store that runs locally, supports custom personalities and encrypted API keys, and introduces 'Memory Anchor' for persistent memories across sessions. A beta version is available for feedback before the v1.0 release.

After A LOT of work, I have finally got my AI Companion app released to the Microsoft App Store. Its called Persistent Sage! It's an AI companion app that runs locally on your machine (or portable from a flash drive) and allows you to customize you AI companion's personalities. It works with most LLM provider's, while keeping your API keys encrypted and secure. It also has, "Memory Anchor" which gives your AI Agent persistent memories across sessions without bogging down the context window. I have already started to work on the full v1.0 release and it has a ton of new features, including the ability to work on projects interactively with the agent. (Think, live HTML responses in the chat window that you can interact with alongside your agent.) But I would love everyone's input on the beta version. Your feedback will help guide me where I want to go next with this project. Thanks everyone!
