Media Gallery
Explore the Media Gallery for managing and viewing generated images and audio files
The gallery extension intercepts all generated image, audio & file assets and uploaded files in ~/.llms/cache file storage whose metadata is maintained in a SQLite database.
Dedicated UIs are available for quickly browsing and navigating or generated images / audio files with optimized UIs for viewing portrait, square and landscape images.

Generated Asset Interception
The Gallery extension automatically monitors the creation of new cache entries. Whenever a file is saved to the LLMs cache (located at ~/.llms/cache), the extension captures its metadata and stores it in the gallery database.
This includes:
- Generated Images: Images created by AI models (e.g: Gemini/Nano Banana, Open AI, chutes.ai)
- Generated Audio: Audio files generated by text-to-speech or audio models.
- Uploaded Files: Any files uploaded through the UI.
All metadata is stored in a dedicated SQLite database located at ~/.llms/user/default/gallery/gallery.sqlite, in the media table.
User Interface
The Gallery UI provides a rich, interactive way to explore your generated assets. You can access it via the Gallery tab in the sidebar or by navigating to /gallery.

Storage Data model
The media table tracks extensive information about each asset to support the search and filtering capabilities:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
url | Relative path to the file in ~/.llms/cache |
type | Asset type (image, audio, video) |
prompt | The prompt used to generate the asset |
model | The AI model used |
aspect_ratio | Aspect ratio (e.g., "1:1", "16:9") |
cost | Generation cost |
metadata | Additional JSON metadata |
created | Timestamp of creation |
This local database ensures your gallery remains fast and responsive, even with a large collection of generated assets.
