Dev Update

🚧 IthielAI Dev Update – Building the Foundation 🚧

Hey everyone,

We wanted to take a moment to share where things are at with IthielAI and what we’ve been working on behind the scenes.

Over the last stretch, development took a bit of a turn—in a good way. What started as Workshop integration quickly evolved into something much bigger. We ended up rebuilding and improving several core systems, including:

  • A new error handling system (much more robust and transparent)

  • The introduction of Think Box

  • Major progress on the Workshop system

  • A reworked startup and loading pipeline

  • And… a lot of bug squashing

Because of this, the next major update is taking a bit longer than expected—but it’s for the right reasons. We’re laying down a much stronger foundation so everything we build moving forward is faster, smarter, and more reliable.


🔧 What’s Coming Next (Short-Term Focus)

The upcoming updates will introduce these new systems, but they won’t be “finished” yet. This phase is about:

  • Improving Workshop mods and making them more stable and usable

  • Expanding and refining the error handling system

  • Continuing development of Think Box

  • Fixing bugs and smoothing out rough edges

  • Laying groundwork for future features and expansions

You’ll also notice some UI changes and movement—this is intentional. We’re preparing for a full UI overhaul, but first we need to stabilize everything underneath it.


🧠 Longer-Term Direction

Before pushing major new features, we want to spend about a few months doing something really important:

👉 Connecting and tuning everything together

This means making Ithiel feel more cohesive, responsive, and intelligent as a whole—not just a collection of systems.


❤️ Thank You

To everyone supporting IthielAI this early—whether you’ve purchased it or even just wishlisted it—Thank you.

It means a lot, and it gives us the momentum to keep pushing forward.

We’re still early, we still have a ton of work ahead… but this is where things start to get really interesting.

This is going to be a wild ride 🚀-Smash

Sometimes when you sit down to build something, you just don't know what's going to happen. HA.

What does that mean? Ithiel will be able to absorb AI .zip backups better than before, but the system isn't limited to AI backups. It can absorb other types of backups and large collections of information too, like an old server backup.
