Bloc: Open-source package manager and registry for local AI

Bloc launched on June 3, 2026 with 3 votes, #6,658 of 22,647 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches.

What it does

Bloc is an open-source package manager and registry for AI workloads. Instead of sharing long README files, setup and config guides, developers can package complete AI deployments as reusable recipes. Each recipe contains everything needed to run a workload, including models, runtimes, environment variables, server settings, and startup commands. Anyone can then reproduce the same setup with a single command, making local AI deployments easier to share and run across different machines and teams

Discover, configure, and boot up optimized open-source LLMs offline in seconds. Explore reproducible model setup recipes shared by the developer community.

Discover and deploy production-ready local AI recipes in minutes. Run identical llama.cpp environments shared by the community with one command. Any model, any hardware. Fully local and reproducible. Bloc Hub is an open platform for sharing and deploying reproducible local AI environments. Developers can publish complete llama.cpp recipes including models, quantization settings, runtimes, GPU optimizations, and configurations, while others can instantly run the exact same setup using a single CLI command. Instead of manually recreating local AI stacks from scattered guides and configs, Bloc Hub makes deployments portable, reproducible, and community-driven. Bloc Hub helps teams share…from bloc-theta.vercel.app

    Hi HN, We just launched Blocks - an AI platform where anyone can build custom work apps and AI agents in minutes, no coding required. We’re seeing a shift in how software is built and used. With AI, software isn’t just about tracking processes anymore - it can actively help people get work done. The problem is that most teams still face 2 options: either buy off-the-shelf tools that never quite fit, or invest a lot of time and money into custom development. Neither works well. Blocks is the third option. It’s an AI-native platform where teams can create apps and AI agents for their workflows…

    Hey HN, This is my take on the agent harness. Everything on an isometric map. Agents are grouped into "buildings" that run in a sequence or a loop; e.g., the CodeForge has an agent that writes a PRD, another one that implements, and a third that reviews. Everything is customizable, you build your own buildings/teams however you want. It's a Tauri app, really light (about 8x less energy than the closest competitor I benchmarked, so it actually runs from a coffee shop on battery). It's macOS only for now, but ping me if you are willing to test the Windows or Linux version. I've been…

    Hey HN, I’ve been building Atom (https://github.com/rush86999/atom), an open-source, self-hosted AI automation platform. I built this because while tools like OpenClaw are excellent for one-off scripts and personal tasks, I found them difficult to use for complex business workflows (e.g., managing invoices or SaaS ops). The main issue was State Blindness: the agent would fire a command and assume it worked, without "seeing" if the UI or state actually updated. I just shipped a new architecture to solve this called Canvas AI Accessibility. The Technical Concept: Instead of…

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
