Newelle is a GTK graphical front end for interacting with LLMs from Gnome desktop. It supports both local LLMs and online ones.
In addition to basic chat, it supports:
- Speech to text and TTS models
- Can perform web searches
- Can drag files into Newelle to discuss it’s contents
- Run terminal commands
- Manage files
- Other features like image generation can be added through it’s plugin system.
Obviously you’ll want to be careful with letting it interact with your system directly through files/terminal commands, but still sounds pretty promising.
