What it does
Ghost is a free AI assistant that lives in your terminal. Most AI coding tools require API keys, subscriptions, or a complicated setup process before you can even ask your first question. It removes that friction. Install it, open your terminal, and start chatting instantly. ✨ No API keys required to get started ⚡ Fast native Go application 🖥️ Linux, macOS, and Windows support 🤖 Multiple free AI models included 🎨 Beautiful terminal interface 🔌 Optional support for your favorite AI providers
Ghost is a lightning-fast, beautiful terminal AI assistant powered by free models. Cross-platform, themeable, and open source.
Ghost is a lightning-fast, beautiful command-line AI — powered by free models, themeable to the bone, and ready the second you install it. A live look at the TUI, theme switcher, and command interface. Pre-wired to free providers. No subscription, no credit card, no API key to start chatting. A single native Go binary that loads its model list from a local cache and launches immediately. A responsive, polished interface. The Dracula theme ships by default — switch anytime. Linux, macOS, and Windows on amd64 and arm64. One tool, every machine you touch. Connect Gemini, Groq, Cerebras, Copilot, and OpenRouter through the Catwalk registry. MIT licensed and built on the Charm ecosystem. Fork…from ghost-cli.eu.cc

Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481Today, 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!
