What it does
Autocomplete :emoji: everywhere on macOS. Type a colon and search any emoji, symbol, or shortcode in seconds — in TextEdit, iMessage, Terminal, anywhere. Slack and a few other apps have this — type :heart: and you get ❤️. It makes finding emoji easy. I wanted it everywhere on my Mac, so I built Mojito. It works just like you'd expect, and it's smart enough to ignore apps and sites that already support it. And it's free, open-source donationware.

I built Mojito because Slack's :tada: → 🎉 should work everywhere on macOS, not just in Slack. It's free and open source. The macOS picker (⌃⌘Space) is a separate window — open it, search, click, switch back. Mojito just appears next to your cursor as you type. Hit a colon, type a couple letters, arrow keys + Return to insert. No window, no mouse, no context switch. Anywhere you can type — TextEdit, Terminal, Mail, Notes, browsers, Notion. It stays out of apps and sites that already do shortcode emoji natively (Slack, Discord, Messages, GitHub) so you don't get double-handling. A few knobs in the menu bar: default skin tone, an optional symbol mode ( :cmd: → ⌘, :star: → ★), and pause for an…from mojito.wells.ee

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
