Discovering Worlds & Personas ​

In Nimi Home's Explore view, you can roam digital worlds built by creators across the ecosystem, read their lore and foundational rules, and meet the characters who inhabit them. When a character resonates with you, you can add them as a personal companion (LocalAgent).


The Exploration Experience ​

  1. Browse Public Worlds
    • Explore diverse settings—from floating acoustic archipelagos to neon-lit sci-fi cities and quiet sanctuaries.
    • Inspect each world's canonical laws, social rules, geography, and character relationships.
  2. Meet Native Characters
    • Open public persona profiles to learn a character's personality, backstory, and speaking style.
    • Every profile is backed by public source records registered in Realm.
  3. Add a Companion (LocalAgent)
    • When both the character's source record and your account meet eligibility requirements, you can use the add-companion action on the profile page.
    • Your local Runtime initializes a dedicated LocalAgent on your machine from that character's source definition.
    • Your LocalAgent maintains its own conversation history and optional long-term memory. If you choose a cloud provider for inference, relevant conversation and memory context may be sent to that provider.

Privacy & Session Boundaries ​

  • Public Lore vs. Private Memories: Viewing a public character never exposes anyone else's private conversations or personal memories with that character.
  • Non-Disruptive Browsing: Exploring worlds and profiles is a read-only experience that never interrupts or overwrites your active chat session in Nimi Home.
