CobbleBrain - AI Dialogue System for Cobblemon

Major Changes

New AI-Driven Memory Retrieval mode

Added a new optional AI-Driven Memory Retrieval mode.

Before generating a response, CobbleBrain searches the stored memories of the active Pokémon in your party and sends the most relevant candidate memories to the AI. The AI then selects which memories best fit the current conversation, resulting in more consistent and context-aware dialogue.

The number of candidate memories is configurable and scales with the number of active Pokémon. Since this feature performs an additional AI request, token usage increases slightly, but the retrieval request typically uses far fewer tokens than the dialogue generation request.

The epidemic of hungry pokemons was solved! (i hope...)

Replaced Ignore Hunger with Show Hunger.

By default, CobbleBrain no longer includes hunger information in the AI context or instructs the AI to consider it, significantly reducing cases where Pokémon constantly talk about being hungry. Players who prefer the previous behavior can simply enable Show Hunger in the configuration.

If the pokemons keep talking about food, try changing their personality in the personality editor and include things like: doesn't like to talk about food, or put in the instruct option that pokemons shouldn't talk about food. If nothing works, try manually deleting from the pokemon's memory file memories that mention food in the cobblebrain-ai/stored_memories folder.

New /cobblebrain clearChatBubbles Command

Added the new /cobblebrain clearChatBubbles command for administrators (permission level 2).

The command includes two cleanup modes:

• Safe, which removes only CobbleBrain chat bubbles.
• Strong, which also removes legacy/orphaned chat bubbles created before this update.

The /cobblebrain guide has also been updated to explain both cleanup modes.

New Settings

New configuration options have been added:

• AI-Driven Memory Retrieval – Lets the AI model decide which previously stored memories should be retrieved for the current conversation.
• Base Candidate Memories – Sets the initial number of candidate memories gathered before they are sent to the AI.
• Show Hunger – Shows or hides Pokémon hunger information from the AI.
• Custom API Provider – Renamed from Local API Provider (name change only).

Additionally, missing configuration descriptions have been added to the mod's JSON files.

Improvements

• Added initial support for NovelAI. (experimental)
  apiBaseUrl: https://text.novelai.net

• Added a notification screen when players attempt to disable Offline Mode in worlds where Force Offline Mode is enabled.

• Added a Report Bugs & Suggestions button in the config screen.

• Increased the spontaneous dialogue check interval from 10 seconds to 12 seconds.

• Treasure Quest barrels now spawn only when the player is nearby, preventing generation issues in unloaded chunks.
