Термины SillyTavern

SillyTavern (ST): Open-source LLM chat frontend built around character cards, presets, World Info, and flexible API connectors—popular for local and self-hosted roleplay.
Character Card: A portable persona package (name, personality, scenario, avatar, example messages) that tells the model how to stay in character.
Character Card V2 (PNG Card): Standard JSON spec (often embedded in PNG) with fields like description, personality, scenario, first_mes, and mes_example—shared across ST-compatible tools.
first_mes / Greeting: The character’s opening message when a new chat starts; sets tone and hooks the user into the scene.
mes_example: Example dialogue snippets in the card that teach the model the character’s speech style and typical exchange patterns.
World Info (WI) / Lorebook: Keyword-triggered lore entries injected into context when matched—used for settings, factions, spells, or relationship facts.
Author's Note (AN): Short hidden instructions appended near the end of context to steer style, pacing, or scene focus without rewriting the whole card.
Main Prompt / System Prompt: Global instructions that apply to every reply (format rules, POV, safety tone, language)—separate from the character card body.
Preset (Chat Completion): A bundled configuration of prompts, sampler settings, and formatting templates that defines how the model formats roleplay output.
API Connector: Connection layer to LLM providers (OpenAI-compatible, Claude, DeepSeek, local Ollama, etc.) that sends your built prompt to the model.
Context Window / Token Budget: Maximum text the model can see at once; cards, lore, and chat history compete for this space—trimming and summarization matter.
Regenerate / Swipe: Regenerate replaces the last AI message; swipe navigates alternate generations stored for the same turn.
User Persona: Your player identity (name, description, speaking style) injected so the character reacts to a consistent “you,” not a generic user.
Group Chat: Multiple character cards in one conversation; the UI and prompt structure must manage who speaks and when.
Extensions: Community or official add-ons that extend ST (extra UI, automation, importers)—powerful but can affect stability if stacked carelessly.
Quick Reply (QR): One-tap user message buttons (e.g., “continue”, “OOC”) to speed up common actions without retyping.
Streaming Output: Tokens appear incrementally as the model generates, making long replies feel faster and more interactive.
Instruct / Chat Template: Model-specific wrappers that convert messages into the format each LLM expects—wrong template causes broken or OOC replies.

Термины MiniTavern

MiniTavern: Mobile-first SillyTavern-style ecosystem for easier AI roleplay—native iOS/Android apps, Web Tavern, Chrome card tools, and a card market in one workflow.
One-Tap Character Import: Import SillyTavern PNG/JSON cards in seconds on phone—no manual file hunting—so you can start chatting immediately.
Mobile-Optimized Tavern UI: Thumb-friendly layout, smooth scrolling, and one-hand flows designed for iPhone/Android instead of desktop-only ST layouts.
Multi-Model Hub: Connect OpenAI, Claude, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, local endpoints, and more from one place—switch models without rebuilding your card library.
Web Tavern: Browser-based tavern session (EvaX explore) for users who want instant play without installing the native app.
Character Card Manager (Chrome Extension): Manage ST cards outside the tavern list—create, edit, sync folders, and generate share URLs for quick import into MiniTavern.
URL Card Import: Paste a temporary share link from the extension to pull a card into MiniTavern—handy for cross-device handoff.
Card Quest Market: Large browsable library of SillyTavern-compatible PNG cards with search and categories—discover trending personas faster.
Explore Feed: In-app discovery surface for recommended and updated character cards so you always have fresh roles to try.
Bundled Sample Cards: Ready-to-chat example characters for first-time users—try roleplay before sourcing cards from the wider community.
Interface-Language Replies: Optional main-prompt behavior to answer in your UI language—reduces “English-only” replies for CN/JP/RU/TW users.
Multiple Chats per Card: Fork or create parallel storylines with the same character—keep separate adventures without duplicating the card file.
Multiple User Personas: Switch between different “you” profiles (nickname + persona prompt) per scenario—useful for alt accounts or story variants.
Streaming by Default: Replies stream in real time for snappier feel on mobile networks—less staring at a blank bubble while tokens generate.
Offline Card Library: Browse and organize imported cards locally; only AI generation needs network—great for commutes and spotty connectivity.
Full Ecosystem Workflow: Discover on market → manage in Chrome → play on app or Web Tavern—MiniTavern optimizes the whole card lifecycle, not just chat.
