    I built Understudy because a lot of real work still spans native desktop apps, browser tabs, terminals, and chat tools. Most current agents live in only one of those surfaces. Understudy is a local-first desktop agent runtime that can operate GUI apps, browsers, shell tools, files, and messaging in one session. The part I'm most interested in feedback on is teach-by-demonstration: you do a task once, the agent records screen video + semantic events, extracts the intent rather than coordinates, and turns it into a reusable skill. Demo video:…

    I've been building Understudy, an open-source GUI agent for macOS. Wanted to push the GUI stuff beyond the usual short demos, so I tried turning it into an iPhone app reviewer. You give it one prompt. It browses the real App Store in Chrome, installs the app on a real iPhone through macOS iPhone Mirroring (not a simulator), opens the app and explores it — never seen Snapseed before — records clips and screenshots, composites a narrated review video with FFmpeg locally, uploads it to YouTube, then deletes the app. About an hour, didn't touch the keyboard. The exploration part is what I'm…

    Hi all! I'm going into my freshman year, and figured that the best way to prepare for the intro to programming Racket course would be to implement my own garbage-collected, dynamically typed, functional programming language in C ;) Anyways... here's the repo: https://github.com/liam-ilan/crumb I started learning C over the summer, so I still have a whole lot to learn... Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! :D
