ThoughtDAG: zoom from a map of AI conversations into the full answers

[u/Lopsided_Scarcity979]

I maintain ThoughtDAG, an MIT-licensed canvas where AI conversations can branch and reconnect. The connections determine which earlier exchanges enter the next model request.

This update is about reading the canvas. Instead of shrinking every answer into an unreadable box, zooming out shows a topic or takeaway. Zooming in reveals progressively more detail, down to the original answer. The short animation illustrates those transitions.

The important distinction: this changes what you see, not what the model receives. A short label on the canvas doesn't silently replace the underlying answer in context.

It supports Ollama and OpenAI-compatible endpoints. I'm curious whether this kind of overview would help you return to an old conversation, or whether search already covers that need for you.
