What it does

I just dropped https://github.com/ethicals7s/awesome-local-ai — a curated list of 150+ open-source tools to run AI 100% locally. No cloud, no API keys, no censorship. Includes Ollama, GPT4All, Llama.cpp, and more—updated weekly. Star it and let me know what you think! @ethicalgoodshub Why local AI? With 2,147 data breaches in 2025 (IBM report) and a 40% rise in local LLM adoption (MIT Tech Review), privacy and control are huge. This list is for builders like us!

  • Open Codex – OpenAI Codex CLI with open-source LLMs2025 · github.com · ▲106

    Hey 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. Shortly after, OpenAI introduced breaking changes. Maintaining my customizations on top became increasingly difficult. So I rewrote the whole thing from scratch using Python. My version is designed to support local LLMs. Right now, it only works with phi-4-mini (GGUF) via…

  • Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite/wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https://github.com/DOSAYGO-STUDIO/HackerBook): you can download it.
