Helm
Personal AI agent on your PC that thinks 24/7
What it does
Helm is a personal AI agent that runs on your hardware with full shell, files, web and screen. Message it from Discord, iMessage or your terminal. Owner-locked, private, runs on any model — your Claude subscription, an API key, or a free local model. Free, self-hosted.

I've been running Claude agents for various automation tasks — monitoring crypto news, syncing Todoist, running health checks — and I kept hitting the same problem: there's no clean way to deploy an agent that just runs on a schedule without a human babysitting it. Every agent framework I looked at was built around chat interfaces or one-shot workflows. I wanted something closer to cron for AI agents — define a task, give it a schedule, let it run forever. So I built Ductwork. You define tasks as simple JSON files — a prompt, a schedule, optional memory and skills — and ductwork handles…

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…

Today, 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!
