Recently updated open-source projects

Hive turns an objective into a graph-based runtime that coordinates specialized agents in parallel while preserving role memory, checkpoints, and execution state. It adds human-in-the-loop controls, observability, cost limits, browser and compute tools, and LiteLLM-compatible hosted or local models; teams building only simple one-off chains may not need this heavier harness.

MarkText is a desktop Markdown editor with real-time visual preview and optional source, typewriter, and focus modes. It supports CommonMark, GitHub Flavored Markdown, math expressions, front matter, emojis, and direct image pasting, then exports finished documents as HTML or PDF on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

awesome-native-macosx-apps is a curated directory for Mac users who prefer native, lightweight software over Electron-based apps. Entries are grouped into practical categories such as development, writing, productivity, security, menu bar utilities, and system tools, with labels for pricing and open-source availability. It is useful for comparing options and discovering focused Mac software, but it serves as a catalog rather than a unified installer.

MonitorControl adjusts external display brightness, volume, and contrast from Apple media keys, custom shortcuts, or menu bar sliders while showing native macOS overlays. It can combine DDC, Apple display protocols, and software dimming across multiple screens. Hardware control depends on the monitor and connection, and some built-in Mac HDMI paths do not support DDC.

Use SkillPack to combine skills from GitHub, URLs, or local folders with prompts, policies, personas, and optional scheduled jobs. It produces a lightweight archive that teammates can unpack and launch into a local browser interface, with optional Slack or Telegram access. The runtime keeps team data on the host machine but requires Node.js 22.19.0 or newer and an LLM API key.

Natively is a desktop meeting, lecture, and interview assistant that captures system and microphone audio, performs on-device speech-to-text, and uses either bring-your-own model keys or a local Ollama instance for notes, answers, and searchable memory. Its separate audio channels are designed to keep speaker and user input distinct, while transcripts, embeddings, and credentials remain on the local machine by default. The source is available under a personal-use license covering personal, educational, research, and non-commercial use; commercial use requires a separate written license.

OpenWA turns WhatsApp sessions into a self-hosted REST API with a web dashboard for managing accounts, webhooks, API keys, contacts, messages, and infrastructure. Its pluggable design supports SQLite or PostgreSQL, optional Redis caching, and local or S3-compatible media storage, with Docker provided for deployment. An optional MCP endpoint exposes a curated subset of tools to AI agents while keeping the full REST surface available.

Use this curated directory to find legal workflows by category, including AI regulation, privacy and cybersecurity, legal research, operations, and jurisdiction-specific practice. Each entry links to a skill folder that can be installed in compatible agent tools. The collection spans tasks such as compliance reviews, policy and contract analysis, case-law research, budgeting, and matter management rather than acting as a single legal application.

Gitea lets a team run its own software development service with Git hosting, code review, issues, project boards, wikis, collaboration, package registries, and CI/CD that can reuse GitHub Actions workflows. Written in Go, it supports a broad range of operating systems and processor architectures.

Add a modular set of Claude skills for tasks such as SEO reporting, sitemap creation, document parsing, Docker setup, resume or report generation, and CI/CD configuration. The npm package attempts to copy skills into the host project during installation and includes scripts for rebuilding package and index files.

TwintailLauncher brings downloading, installation management, mod support, and quality-of-life options for supported anime-style games into one launcher. It is intended for players who want a single configurable interface across Windows and Linux. The stable Windows build is distributed through winget, while Linux users can install through Flatpak or selected distribution repositories; an AUR build is marked unstable and built from source.

Toonflow brings planning, script adaptation, characters, storyboards, assets, and video nodes into an infinite-canvas workspace for animated short-form production. Its agent layers, chapter event graph, and persistent local memory help keep long projects coherent. It can run as an Electron desktop app or a self-hosted service, with model and provider connections configured separately for generation.

SkillOpt treats a skill document as the trainable state of an otherwise frozen agent. An optimizer model converts scored trajectories into bounded add, delete, or replace edits, and a candidate is accepted only when it strictly improves a held-out validation score. The resulting best_skill.md can be deployed without changing model weights or adding extra model calls at inference time, giving researchers and engineering teams a controlled way to improve reusable agent instructions.

Codex App Manager is a cross-platform desktop client for installing, updating, launching, and cleanly uninstalling the official Codex desktop app. It detects the local state before planning an action, uses signed delta updates with rollback on macOS, and handles MSIX or portable installations on Windows. Its own updater and Codex payload downloads can use mirrors reachable from mainland China. The macOS build is Developer ID signed and notarized, while the Windows installer currently lacks an Authenticode code signature.

Open Science Desktop combines exploration, literature review, experiment code, notebooks, figures, reports, runs, and paper writing in one macOS, Windows, and Linux application. Each artifact can be traced back to its inputs, code, environment, model output, and conversation, while a bundled OpenCode sidecar keeps models, skills, and MCP connectors replaceable. Workspace data stays local by default, although selected content may still be sent to the model provider configured for a task.

Amazon Sorftime MCP Skills combines Sorftime, Sif, Xiyou Insight, SellerSprite, and related data services into nine workflows for listing analysis, category selection, keyword research, review mining, traffic, ads, pricing, and listing optimization. Reports can be produced in Markdown, CSV, Excel, or HTML formats. Running the workflows depends on access to the relevant MCP services, accounts, and data permissions.

CAD Skills is an installable library of agent workflows for mechanical design, fabrication, and robotics. Its skills can create or edit CAD models from text or image requests, preview local CAD and G-code files, find off-the-shelf STEP parts, produce DXF drawings, prepare slicing work, and handle robot-description or simulation artifacts. STEP is the main modeling output, with supported exports such as STL, 3MF, and GLB. The library installs through the Skills CLI or provider-specific plugin paths for agents such as Codex and Claude Code.

GeoLibre provides a shared GIS workspace for loading, visualizing, and processing geospatial data in a browser, desktop app, Android app, or Jupyter notebook. Its Python API and visual interface can exchange project state in both directions, while most data and computation remain local. Optional services such as Street View providers or Cesium imagery still require their own access credentials.
