Show HN: Cosmo – Desktop agent with generated UI

https://www.buildcosmo.com
1•row0•1h ago
Hey there! I’m Shiyuan, a recent college grad working on this.

Cosmo lets you interact with your computer through generative UI.

Examples:

- Type “github action status for my website” → desktop dashboard of all the action run statuses

- Speak “create a linear issue” → instant UI on desktop to select the assignee, labels, etc.

It is integrated with GitHub, Vercel, Jira, Supabase, Linear, Posthog, Google Workspace etc. so people can see charts, make edits, and complete tasks through these generated interfaces.

And everything happens on your desktop, it’s not another app window you have to switch to. We hope to use generative UI to kill app windows :P

The concept is still early, and generation speed may be suboptimal (meant to be instant, faster than human navigation on traditional UIs). But I’d love to hear if it can boost productivity somewhere in your workflow. Feedback is greatly appreciated!

this generative UI approach is interesting. curious how you handle the UI rendering - are you building native desktop views or rendering in a webview? also, what happens when the data structure changes from one of those integrations, does the UI break or adapt?
