Introduction - AllCodex

AllCodex is a three-service worldbuilding platform designed for Dungeon Masters, writers, and worldbuilders. It functions as an interactive “grimoire” where you can dump raw lore and thoughts, and let AI process, structure, and connect everything automatically.

The Three Services

AllCodex is split into three decoupled components, keeping your lore storage, AI logic, and user interface separate:

AllCodex Portal

A sleek, grimoire-themed web interface built in Next.js 16 and React 19. It serves as your control center.

AllKnower

The AI brain. Built on Elysia and Bun, it coordinates LLMs, handles vector embeddings, and processes relations.

AllCodex Core

The storage engine. A customized, headless fork of Trilium, serving as a highly flexible hierarchical lore database.

Core Capabilities

Discover how AllCodex transforms raw, unstructured worldbuilding notes into a dense, navigable wiki.

Brain Dump Pipeline

Dump raw thoughts, campaign sessions, or messy notes. AllKnower streams the content to LLMs, extracts clean lore entities, and seeds them into your database.

AI Consistency & Gap Tools

Run automated analyses to detect logical gaps in your world, find contradictions, and suggest deep entity relationships.

Visual Relationship Graph

Explore your world through an interactive React Flow canvas. Filter relationships, traverse multi-hop connections, and see how your NPCs, factions, and locations connect.

RAG & Hybrid Search

Retrieve lore instantly. Fuses vector search (via LanceDB) with SQLite full-text search (BM25) to understand both literal keywords and conceptual queries.

Public Share Pages

Publish branches of your lore tree. AllCodex Core generates lightweight, read-only public pages for players, respecting GM-only content gates.

Token & Budget Observability

Track model costs, background jobs, and API calls with granular usage dashboards and customizable cost buffers.
