What it does

Coding agents are locked to one terminal on one machine. Caraka is the missing transport, not another assistant. Send a task from Telegram, Discord, or WhatsApp and the coding agent already on your machine runs it. Each session becomes its own chat topic. Writes and commands need a single-use approval that expires. Plain chat text can never approve anything. Nine presets speak one open protocol (ACP): Claude Code, Codex, aider, goose, opencode. npx caraka init. MIT, self-hosted.

Caraka v1.5 connects Telegram, Discord, or WhatsApp to the coding agent on your machine, with sessions, single-use approvals, secret scrubbing, and audit.

A local bridge from Telegram, Discord, or WhatsApp to the coding agent already on your machine. v1.5 ships sessions, single-use approvals, memory, secret scrubbing, and audit without adding another agent loop. Progress arrives as one message edited as the answer grows, where the chat app allows an edit. The idea arrives on the road, in bed, mid-meeting. Execution waits until you are back at the laptop. A migration, a refactor, a full test suite — running with no way to see progress or stop it from outside. Without a persisted agent session, the next phone message starts a fresh context instead of resuming the task. Since 2026, Telegram bots can create forum topics inside a private chat,…from caraka.dev

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
