Catnip mode: an expert mode for advanced users (ie ‘go crazy’ basically)
I know I’m missing other features and whatnot, but hopefully this idea is somewhat helpful.
So…catnip mode. When toggled on (default off) in a new Developer Settings menu, this mode will unlock additional parameters:
Catnip/developer setting panel:
- Toggle proton system prompt instructions off (default on), allowing a custom instruction set (open weights by design have native guardrails as is, reduce overhead)
- Ideally, the developer setting should allow us to see the system prompt that Proton uses (increase transparency)
Lumo chat area:
- Ability to explicitly select models
- Brief description of model, recommended use when hovering over model selection
- Ability to see open model weights (increase transparency)
- Conversation/session context
- Ability to see token use, limit/remaining tokens
Model Panel:
- Advanced parameters and profiles
- Create up to 5 profiles per model
- Personalization prompt
- Temperature, P, K, penalties, A, etc.
- Response format
- Max output tokens
API:
- Add any of the above features that may not currently be available in the API being developed (most notably specific model selection and system prompt)
- Current GitHub as of posting has model IDs: auto, lumo-fast, lumo-thinking
The intent is to leave the current environment for general users, however, open it up to advanced users looking for serious use cases.
