Local-First AI 2

Local-first desktop control surface and workshop for AI coding agents with persistent memory. Athena is a local-first, open-source desktop control surface and AI workshop designed for AI coding agents. It provides a centralized command room that unifies multiple AI agents like Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, and Hermes with a shared project context. By utilizing an embedded PTY terminal framework and an MCP bridge, Athena allows AI agents to directly control and interact with the user's workspace. Unlike cloud-dependent tools, Athena keeps all memory, history, and orchestration locally on the user's machine, featuring persistent local memory, session recall, a Tailscale-powered mobile companion app, and system-wide voice dictation.

Proactive local AI that automates workflows and builds custom internal tools. Yansu (by Isoform) is a proactive, local-first AI platform that observes your daily desktop workflows and messaging habits to automatically build custom internal tools, knowledge libraries, and background automations. Instead of requiring users to write code, design dashboards, or manually engineer prompts, Yansu works quietly in a virtual layer to distill raw memory, fill out forms, file tickets, and run custom scripts without interrupting the user's active cursor or workflow.
