Loyal-Elephie
Basic Information
Loyal Elephie is an open source memory-enabled conversational application that combines a Next.js web user interface with a Python backend to provide a Retrieval Augmented Generation chat experience. The project is designed to let users interact with both local and OpenAI-compatible language models while selectively saving conversational moments as editable episodic memory. It integrates hybrid search using ChromaDB and BM25 to improve retrieval, supports date-aware queries, and can connect to a local embedding server. The application includes a built-in login for secure web access and optional integration with browser-based Markdown editors so the assistant can reference and update external notes in real time. The README notes the project is primarily tested on Linux and documents deployment steps for frontend and backend, model and API configuration, and language preference settings.
