Stevens: a hackable AI assistant using a single SQLite table and a handful of cron jobs

Trey Causey

Vibe coding enables sillier projects. Initially, Stevens spoke with a dry tone, like you might expect from a generic Apple or Google product. But it turned out it was just more fun to have the assistant speak like a formal butler. This was trivial to do, just a couple lines in a prompt. Similarly, I decided to make the admin dashboard views feel like a video game, because why not?

Geoffrey Litt, of Ink & Switch, creates a dead-simple, Telegram-based LLM assistant for him and his wife. Impressive how far he gets with a SQLite table for memory and some cron jobs.
