What it does
Codex Chat is a Swift-native macOS client for Codex with local markdown memory, themes, mods, extensions, and optional phone remote control.
Bikram Brar is an AI product manager and product engineer in San Francisco focused on SaaS, agentic workflows, product strategy, prototyping, metrics, and AI-agent-led iteration.
I spent my early career learning how users move through messy workflows, what breaks, and which metrics matter. Now I lead product teams and AI agents through the same loop: discover the pain, prototype the solution, measure, iterate, and ship. A design canvas for mapping flows, redesigning screens, and handing clean context to Codex. Local-first design canvas for humans and agents. Map real product flows, redesign screens, and hand selected context to Codex. AI reactivation platform that cleans historical customer records, builds a CRM, and calls past customers to recover revenue. macOS SwiftUI Codex client with local history, reusable context, skills, mods, and explicit safety controls.…from bikrambrar.com

Open Codex – OpenAI Codex CLI with open-source LLMs2025 · github.com · ▲106Hey HN, I’ve built Open Codex, a fully local, open-source alternative to OpenAI’s Codex CLI. My initial plan was to fork their project and extend it. I even started doing that. But it turned out their code has several leaky abstractions, which made it hard to override core behavior cleanly.

My version is designed to support local LLMs. Right now, it only works with phi-4-mini (GGUF) via…

Talanoa▲343Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
