Products that do what OpenHarness Open-source terminal coding agent for any LLM does

Hi HN, I built OpenHarness , an open-source terminal coding agent that works with any LLM: Ollama (free, local), OpenAI, Anthropic, Deepseek, Qwen or any OpenAI-compatible API. Install and run: npm install -g @zhijiewang/openharness oh # auto-detect local model oh --model ollama/qwen2.5:7b # specific model What it does: - 17 tools (file read/edit/write, bash, grep, glob, web search, task management, notebooks) - 16 slash commands (/diff, /undo, /commit, /cost, /compact, /plan, /review...) - Git integration: every AI edit auto-committed,…

I built an open-source answer engine that runs local LLMs▲5
hey hn, I built an open-source Perplexity clone that can run local LLMs and cloud LLMs. It's fully self-hostable through Docker and uses ollama to support local LLMs. The demo video in the repository shows me running it locally with llama3 on my M1 Macbook Pro. I'm open to any suggestions or feedback, thanks!
