Local-first AI personal assistants
These are local-first AI assistants that operate on the user's machine, covering chat, memory, planning, and task automation. The cluster's dated history is too thin to read a shape from, with only four dated entries before the index start. Traction leaders are WhiteNight (118 stars), touxian (46 stars), and clawdget (11 stars).
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
