Sharpee Platform Architecture

Is very nearly complete. I have a baseline story (Cloak of Darkness) somewhat working as expect. Enough to believe the architecture is solid. So how do we prove it outside of a big game? Unit testing. I have completed unit test suites for the packages Core, Event Processor, and am

Sharpee's Architecture Solidifies

Rewind A little over three years ago I started playing around with elements of a new IF Platform built in C#. The vision included a graph data store, text service, and not much else. Then when ChatGPT arrived, I was able to make some progress, especially learning new patterns, but

Sharpee: Process an IF turn entirely Without Text

As I develop Sharpee, one design decision has clarified significantly. During the processing of a turn, the system won't generate or "print" any text. None. But wait Dave! This IS an interactive (text) fiction authoring thing you're building, right? Yes, but is streaming print

Sharpee's Text Emission Strategy

One of the foundational aspects I decided for Sharpee was to use modern architecture. The world model is stored in a bi-directional graph and that is fully working and tested. The next "layer" is the IF "things" and then Grammar, Parser, Language, Game Runner, and the

Sharpee's Architecture Solidifies

I have a lot to talk about at this point in the development of my C# interactive fiction authoring platform called Sharpee. The "design" of the system is coming to a working and well-defined point. One of the first things I had envisioned in developing this platform was

I may have found a template for GenAI

It's been a few weeks since I worked on Sharpee. Tonight, I think I found a workable template for using GenAI (Claude Sonnet 3.5) to help with the coding. I've set up a set of basic rules for the project as such: "You are

The Limitations of LLMs

As much as I love the new technology from Anthropic, it still has the same limitations that all LLMs have had since ChatGPT was released. They eventually forget what you're doing and what they've done for you. There needs to be two things integrated into LLMs

Upgrading to Claude Sonnet 3.5

Just a quick update on my progress, stalled because I wasn't happy with Clause Opus 3's responses. I started using Clause Projects and Sonnet 3.5 and it seems to be better. For example, the new Grammar syntax might look like this: Verb("Get"

GitHub Repository and Official Name

I had many names for this project, but they were all generic. I decided to look around GitHub for names I liked and settled on a rarely used name, Sharpee. Clearly a reference to using C#. The new repo is at: https://github.com/ChicagoDave/sharpee/ I've already

My C# IF Platform

This is the beginning of my research and development of a .NET Core/C# parser-based interactive fiction authoring system. I started investigating this idea about two years ago, though I only started truly digging into it after the announcement of OpenAI's ChatGPT-4. One of the things that inspired
