Gemini 2 with unrestricted code execution
I recently experimented using Gemini 2 Flash and Gemini 2 Flash Thinking with unrestricted code execution in a local sandbox and open sourced the results: https://github.com/gradion-ai/freeact. Here's an example that uses Gemini 2 Flash Thinking as agent that acts via code, executed in a sandbox based on IPython and Docker: https://gist.github.com/krasserm/dcdae47f85ee9922e3284953d07... Gemini's code execution environment is restricted to selected Python libraries like NumPy or SymPy and prevents the model from installing new packages, besides other…
In plain words
Gemini 2 with unrestricted code execution is an open-source framework that enables Google's Gemini 2 Flash and Gemini 2 Flash Thinking models to run code in a local sandbox environment without the restrictions of Gemini's standard execution limits. Built on IPython and Docker, it allows AI agents to install packages and execute arbitrary Python code to complete tasks. The tool is designed for developers building agentic applications that require flexible code execution capabilities beyond what Gemini's default environment provides.

I recently experimented using Gemini 2 Flash and Gemini 2 Flash Thinking with unrestricted code execution in a local sandbox and open sourced the results: https://github.com/gradion-ai/freeact.

Gemini's code execution environment is restricted to selected Python libraries like NumPy or SymPy and prevents the model from installing new packages, besides other limitations. While this may be useful for agentic applications in restricted environments, it may prevent agents from adapting to new environments, especially agents that write their actions in code (see CodeAct paper https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.01030). Has anyone else experimented with Gemini 2 as a CodeAct agent? I'd be particularly interested in hearing about approaches to unrestricted code execution.

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.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

- TITetris in a PDF▲1,289
I realized that the PDF engines of modern desktop browsers (PDFium and PDF.js) support JavaScript with enough I/O primitives to make a basic game like Tetris. It was a bit tricky to find a union of features that work in both engines, but in the end it turns out that showing/hiding annotation "fields" works well to make monochrome pixels, and keyboard input can be achieved by typing in a text input box. All in all it's quite janky but a nice reminder of how general purpose PDF scripting can be. The linked PDF is all ASCII so you can just open it in a text editor, or have a look at…
