ALLUSIONS

Three Windows products for local AI, film playback and gameplay stories. Each one does difficult work and says plainly what it did.

Products

AFK AI

Local AI for Windows, without the plumbing becoming the product.

AFK AI checks the PC, sets up the runtime and a model, and starts chat on this machine. When something is missing it names the one next step, and it refuses to touch containers it cannot prove it owns.

AFK AI Setup window: a checklist where Windows, virtualization and WSL are ready, Docker is not running and hardware is checked at setup, with Start Docker Desktop as the next step.
Setup checking a real PC, 24 Sep 2026. This is the next build (37cbaed), which still reports version 0.2.0-rc1; the 0.2.0-rc1 you can download today runs the same setup checks in its earlier dark interface.

DemiMedia

A Windows film player that lets the picture lead and keeps the detail one step away.

You choose the result you want, such as faithful picture or smoother motion. DemiMedia shows what you requested, what it planned and what the player actually reported, and shows when playback had to change path.

A generated test clip playing, 23 Sep 2026, with Playback details open: requested, planned and observed kept apart. Build 90e0a87, now on main; not yet released. On a phone, the details panel from the same frame.

ValClips

Turns long gameplay sessions into ranked, evidence-grounded stories worth making.

It reads a whole sitting, ranks the moments that make a story, previews the edit and lets you choose how it should feel. Nothing is published until you have reviewed it, and every claim in a clip has to be backed by what was on screen.

ValClips Session Director headed Find the story in your session: a 57-minute sitting with 21 moments considered, reduced to three ranked stories worth making, each with its length and the note Rendered, needs your review.
One real sitting, captured 24 Sep 2026: three ranked stories, each rendered and waiting for review. Development build 83568e4; player names blurred.

The working standard

  1. Observe first. Measure the machine, the file or the recording before acting on it.
  2. Tell the truth about state. Requested, planned and observed are different things, and unknown stays unknown.
  3. Own the boring parts. Setup, recovery, diagnostics and failure handling are part of the product.
  4. Keep people out of the machinery. Technical depth should lower the burden, not become a badge.
