Show HN: A local-first AI agent for the desktop, no Electron, any LLM endpoint

https://github.com/Scronkfinkle/byob
2•scronkfinkle•1h ago
Hey folks. Most all the apps I see for agent harnesses are typescript based, and involve either electron or some form of IPC to function as a desktop app.

In the age of LLM's, I thought it would be cool to build out a prototype of what a modern desktop application would like for this, without using any web code, since I can have agents pretty aggressively work on the cross-platform compatibility on my behalf. After about a week, I ended up with a harness that feels pretty good!

Feel free to try it from the releases or you can install directly via:

``` cargo install byob ````
