Roadmap

Roadmap

Possible future features for DeepLore Enhanced. Nothing here is promised or on a timeline — these are ideas collected from community feedback, GitHub issues, code audits, and the developer's own plans. Some may ship soon, some may never ship, and priorities can shift.

Have a feature request? Open a GitHub issue with the enhancement label.

Note: Features already shipped are documented on the Features page and in the Changelog.

Size estimates: [S] small, [M] medium, [L] large.

AI & Retrieval

Feature	Size	Description
Hybrid Vector Pre-Filter	L	Use ST Vector Storage embeddings for semantic retrieval alongside keyword matching.
Multi-Query Decomposition	L	Agentic retrieval: decompose chat into sub-queries by narrative element, merge results.
Injection History Awareness	S	Prepend previously-injected entries to AI search context. Deferred due to re-picking bias concern — decay/freshness handles this better for now.
Stale-While-Revalidate Index	S	Serve the stale vault index while fetching fresh data in background.

---

Worldbuilding

Feature	Size	Description
Continuity Watchdog	M	AI contradiction detection: compare model responses against injected lore and flag inconsistencies.
Lore Evolution via Scribe	L	Scribe proposes vault entry updates when state-changing events happen in the story.
Relationship Tracker	M	Typed directional relationships (ally/enemy/mentor/etc.) in frontmatter, surfaced in graph and manifest.
Faction Influence System	L	Numeric influence values, inter-faction disposition maps, /dle-factions command.
Narrative Spotlight / Scene Director	M	Natural language spotlight conditions in frontmatter, evaluated by AI to control injection.
Character Knowledge Annotations	M	Per-character knowledge gating to prevent information leakage between characters.
Procedural Lore Generation	L	Template-based on-the-fly entry creation for uncharted territory or unexplored areas.
Adaptive Injection by Pacing	M-L	Adjust injection volume based on narrative pacing — less lore during fast action, more during exploration.
Cross-Chat Continuity	M	Import key narrative state from previous chats into new ones.
Narrative Arc Templates	L	Story arc structures with phase-dependent lore priorities (rising action gets different lore than climax).
Lore Consistency Checker	M	AI semantic contradiction detection across vault entries.

Entry Matching & Gating

Feature	Size	Description
Inclusion Groups	M	A group frontmatter field where only one entry per group injects per chat. User-creatable toggles with a panel UI to select which group member is active.
Outlet / outletName Support	M	Map entries to SillyTavern lorebook outlet names, or support named injection positions like "before char" and "after author's note".
Fuzzy Name Matching for Commands	S	Allow /dle-pin, /dle-block, and other entry commands to fuzzy-match titles instead of requiring exact names.

---

Vault & Import

Feature	Size	Description
Auto-Sync from ST World Info	M	Watch a SillyTavern lorebook JSON for changes and auto-import new entries. Bridges the gap with extensions like MemoryBooks and WREC.
AI-Generated Summaries on Import	S	Optionally spend an API call per entry during /dle-import to generate a real summary field instead of the placeholder. (Post-import summaries already available via /dle-summarize.)
Update Existing Entries	M	Dedicated function to update vault entries — modifying specific frontmatter fields while preserving the rest — rather than full file rewrites.
Per-Chat Vault Auto-Switching	M	Automatically assign vaults to chats instead of manual toggling, or treat folders within a vault as chat-specific lorebooks.
Full Bidirectional Vault Sync	L	Full version of the lite import bridge — two-way sync between ST World Info and Obsidian vault.
Wiki-Import Pipeline	L	Crawl Fandom/MediaWiki sites, summarize pages, and create vault entries automatically.
Entry Template System	M	Type-specific templates (character, location, lore, etc.) for Auto-Suggest created entries.

---

UX & Visualization

Feature	Size	Description
NovelAI-Style Full Context Viewer	L	Color-coded visualization of the entire prompt showing where each piece comes from.
Token Budget Visualizer	M	Stacked bar chart of budget allocation across entry groups.
Generation Timeline	L	Recorded pipeline history in chat_metadata, persistent timeline across generations.
Batch Health Fix	L	Auto-fix buttons on health check issues instead of just reporting them.
Entry Clustering / Smart Grouping	M	AI-powered thematic clustering of vault entries with gap analysis.
Keyboard Shortcuts	S	Ctrl+Shift+B/M/N/R for common drawer and pipeline actions.
Entry Versioning / History Timeline	M	Track changes to vault entries over time with diffs.
Setup Wizard AI Connection Step	S	Extend /dle-setup to also configure AI search connection (profile or proxy), not just vault connection.
/dle-summarize Batch UX	M	Batch mode for generating summaries across many entries with progress tracking and abort support.
/dle-set-characters Browse Popup	S	Rich browse-and-select popup for the character gating command, matching the style of /dle-set-era.
Simulation Scope Disclaimer	S	Add a note to /dle-simulate output clarifying that results are approximate and may differ from real generations.
/dle-review Chat Pollution Warning	S	Warn users that /dle-review injects a system message visible to the AI, which may affect subsequent generations.
color-mix() @supports Wrappers	S	Wrap ~25 color-mix() CSS usages in @supports blocks for browsers that don't support it.
Health Icon Colorblind Indicators	S	Add shape-based indicators (icons, patterns) alongside color for health status, improving accessibility for colorblind users.
Context Bar Hide for Non-OAI Backends	S	Hide the context token bar in the drawer footer when using non-OpenAI backends where CHAT_COMPLETION_PROMPT_READY never fires.
Browse List Virtualization	M	Virtual scrolling for the Browse tab entry list to handle vaults with 500+ entries without DOM bloat.

Infrastructure & Connectivity

Feature	Size	Description
Remote Obsidian Support	S	Allow connecting to Obsidian on a different machine. Currently hardcoded to 127.0.0.1. Needs a configurable hostname/IP field per vault connection.
Phone/Mobile Support	M	Use DLE when SillyTavern runs on a PC but the user accesses from a phone. Related to remote Obsidian support.
Higher/Unlimited AI Timeout	S	Allow AI search timeout beyond the current 30,000ms cap, or disable it entirely. Scribe and Auto-Suggest already allow up to 60,000ms.
Web Worker for Keyword Matching	M	Offload regex matching off the main thread for vaults with 500+ entries.
Pipeline Telemetry Dashboard	M	Timing data, performance counters, and user-facing metrics for pipeline runs.
Observer Unsubscribe Pattern	M	Refactor state.js callback arrays to return unsubscribe functions, enabling proper cleanup if modules are ever reloaded.

---

Integration & Ecosystem

Feature	Size	Description
Mirror Other Extensions	L	Use Obsidian as unified storage for lore maintenance features from other extensions (MemoryBooks, WREC, etc.).

---

Project

Item	Description
Rebrand to "DeepLore"	Drop the "Enhanced" suffix once enough features have landed. Base DeepLore is deprecated.
