Grux OS

Raycast, Granola and Wispr Flow in one free MIT Mac app

What it does

Grux is a native macOS agent for people who work alone. It opens real terminal sessions and can undo anything it did, because every command is snapshotted into a shadow git repo first. It runs swarms of agents in parallel, scaffolds and builds iOS apps, captures meetings on device, and writes its own next version for you to approve. 39 features, 79 tools, 1830 tests. Your own API key, or a local model with no key at all. No account, no server, no telemetry. MIT.

The god agent for solopreneurs on Mac. Opens terminal sessions it can undo, runs agent swarms, builds iOS apps, and writes its own next version. 39 features, 116 tools. Free, MIT, no account.

Thirty nine features and one hundred sixteen tools in one native window. It opens terminal sessions it can undo, runs agent swarms, builds iOS apps, and writes its own next version for you to approve. Your mail and your meetings are the easy part. Free, MIT licensed | macOS 14 or later, Apple silicon | 22.4 MB | Signed and notarized by Apple No account, no server, no telemetry, no subscription. Roughly $322,000 of Claude went into it. Yours for nothing. One command, in the shell you already have open. Every command also runs unattended and can print itself as a prompt, so the coding agent you already use can set Grux up, wire it into the rest of your machine, and go on extending it with…from gruxai.com

    Hello HN! The day has finally come to stop adding features and start sharing what I've been building the last 5-6 months. It's a bit of CrewAI, OpenDevon, LangFuse/Cloud all in one, providing devs who prefer TypeScript an integrated framework thats provides a lot out of the box to start experimenting and building agents with. It started after peeking at the LangChain docs a few times and never liking the example code. I began experimenting with automating a simple Jira request from the engineering team to add an index to one of our Google Spanner databases (for context I'm the…

  • 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…

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
