An optics workbench assembles physical ground, habitation, focal action, atmosphere, and light around one camera, then hands a composed frame toward an optional render.

Agent-operated place-time camera

Stand somewhere real. See the world that moment earns.

OmniView turns an ordinary request into a physically coherent place-time view and a complete image-ready prompt. When the host exposes an authorized renderer, it can dispatch one image and report the observed result. When no renderer is available, the prompt remains the finished product.

Download v0.1.1 Install OmniView Open a first view

OmniView is for visual researchers, storytellers, historians, educators, artists, worldbuilders, and curious people who want vivid reconstruction without pretending that geography is surveillance or that a year selects a famous event.

The product loop

Locate and ground

Reconstruct the actual coordinate

Place, time resolution, land, water, ecology, habitation, structure lifecycle, and source limits determine the world class.

Witness and compose

Use an honest optic

Physical footing, afloat support, safe standoff, or a declared virtual aperture anchors one material event through depth and light.

Prompt or render

Keep tool state truthful

Return a complete Render Seed, optionally dispatch through an authorized host tool, and distinguish prompt-only, host-rendered, render-failed, and source-unavailable.

Inputs and outputs

Give OmniView a place or coordinate, date or period, and the view you want. Add a local hour, fixed camera, medium, comparison, traversal, or future scenario when it matters.

A complete result can include:

Start with a bounded success

Open a prompt-only view onto Uruk around 3200 BC at first light. Separate sourced conditions from scene inference.

Prompt-only performs the whole grounding and composition path without an external image dispatch. It is the cleanest first acceptance check.

For open water, try:

Open a prompt-only view at Point Nemo in AD 1500 at 23:30 local time. The year is all I know.

A healthy view uses a declared virtual aperture over water, preserves the unresolved calendar, and invents neither land nor an exact moon phase.

Two public handoffs

Companion Augment

Codex and Claude

Portable skill artifacts for single views, comparisons, traversals, prompts, and optional host renders.

Install and verify

GL4SS drop-ins

Bounded maintainer patches

Two AGPL-derived patches against one frozen GL4SS commit. They preserve providers, UI, storage, model-call count, dependencies, and public TypeScript contracts.

Apply or reverse safely

Evidence

Claims with altitude

Package, corpus, patch, release, and retained behavior have bounded receipts. Fresh-host selection and rendered superiority do not.

Read verification

Boundaries that matter

OmniView composes reconstructions and scenarios; it does not recover documentary pixels from another time. A prompt is not a render. Dispatch is not a returned image. A year does not select an exact day, season, moon phase, weather event, or famous incident. Source-backed condition, bounded inference, and scenario remain distinct.

The package contains no image model, provider account, API key, telemetry client, hidden network service, or automatic updater. Hosts, research tools, and image providers have their own storage, logging, network, billing, and accessibility boundaries.
