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).

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.
