Recently updated open-source projects

Blinko is a self-hosted card-note tool for quickly saving ideas in Markdown without interrupting the moment. Its retrieval-augmented search lets users find older notes with natural-language questions while keeping the underlying data in their own environment. A one-command Docker setup is available, alongside Tauri-based clients for macOS, Windows, Android, and Linux.

GithubStarsManager syncs starred repositories, generates AI summaries and categories, and helps recover projects through filters, keywords, or vector-based semantic search. It can also track releases, filter and copy links for downloadable assets, and browse trending repositories. The app works with local browser storage alone or an optional backend for cross-device sync; AI providers, WebDAV, and network proxies are configured by the user.

This large library supplies reusable skills for product, engineering, marketing, legal, finance, careers, and many other professional tasks. Users can try skills in a browser or install them through CLI, MCP, and several agent platforms, with tools for search and chained document or slide workflows. Because the monorepo is extensive, most users will want only selected skills or bundles.

Use Hoppscotch to send REST, GraphQL, WebSocket, and other API requests from the web app, desktop client, or CLI. Collections, environments, scripts, and response tests turn one-off calls into repeatable workflows, while data can remain in a local session, sync through the hosted service, or run on a self-hosted deployment.

Open Cowork is a graphical AI agent workspace for Windows and macOS that can use Claude, OpenAI-compatible APIs, and several other model providers. Within a selected workspace, an agent can manage files, create PPTX, DOCX, PDF, and XLSX outputs through skills, connect to services such as browsers or Notion through MCP, and receive remote instructions through Lark or Slack. Basic protection restricts file access by path; WSL2 on Windows or Lima on macOS can add VM isolation. Users should still review permissions carefully because authorized file changes or deletions carry real risk.

MedSci Skills is a collection for clinical and medical-AI research that spans literature search, study design, statistics, figures, manuscript drafting, reporting-guideline checks, citation audits, and model-engineering workflows. Basic use requires Python 3.9+ and a compatible agent host; some live-data tasks rely on additional MCP services.

Awesome Sysadmin is a categorized directory for sysadmins, DevOps engineers, and SREs looking for open-source software. It spans backups, configuration management, CI/CD, deployment, monitoring, platform services, VPNs, and more, with entries typically showing source links, licenses, and implementation languages; it is a discovery list, not an operations platform.

DeepChat is a local-first desktop client for running cloud and local models alongside agent tools. It supports installable Skills, MCP services, and ACP-compatible agents as first-class session options, while its Tape and Trace views preserve context, tool calls, requests, and results for inspection or recovery. Users can also control sessions through messaging integrations such as Telegram, Feishu/Lark, Discord, and others, making it suited to longer-running agent workflows.

holaOS is a local-first desktop work agent that can connect, with permission, to files, browser state, and workplace services such as Gmail, Slack, Notion, GitHub, and Jira. It summarizes those signals into durable Markdown memory stored on the machine, with SQLite vector search and RAG for retrieval. Users can inspect, edit, or delete remembered context while managing tasks, files, and outputs in one workspace. macOS is supported now; Windows and Linux are still in progress.

RuSwitcher converts the last word between any two installed keyboard layouts using a configurable key trigger, or can attempt precision-first correction as you type. It retypes the converted text directly without touching the clipboard and also works through Apple Screen Sharing. Automatic conversion and remote-desktop support are still marked as beta features.

Nginx UI gives administrators a browser-based workspace for editing site configurations, viewing server metrics, and automatically backing up each change for comparison or restoration. It can mirror operations across multiple nodes and handle Let's Encrypt certificate deployment and renewal. An integrated assistant and MCP interface also allow supported AI tools to inspect configurations and control services.

OpenFlowKit is a local-first diagramming studio for creating architecture diagrams and flowcharts from templates, code, structured imports, screenshots, or natural-language prompts. Diagrams remain visually editable, and the studio can export cinematic MP4 walkthroughs. Users may bring keys for several model providers or run fully offline through Ollama. A companion MCP server lets tools such as Claude Desktop and Cursor create and validate diagrams, while project state is stored locally in the browser without a required account or backend.

File Converter Pro is a free offline desktop application for Windows 10 and 11 that handles document, image, audio, and video conversion in one interface, including batch jobs. Files stay on the machine, with no uploads, telemetry, or internet requirement. Installer and portable builds run on 64-bit Windows without Python or other preinstalled dependencies. Context-menu actions, watched folders, and scheduled tasks make it suitable for users who need recurring or automated local conversions.

claude-red is a library of on-demand SKILL.md files for web, identity, wireless, cloud, mobile, exploit development, red-team infrastructure, and other attack surfaces. Each skill supplies focused methodology, tooling, edge cases, and escalation paths without loading the entire library into context. It is intended for penetration testers and researchers working on systems they are explicitly authorized to assess.

Tolaria is a desktop app for organizing personal notes, company documentation, or agent memory on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Notes remain standard Markdown files with YAML frontmatter, and every vault is a Git repository with portable version history. It works without a Tolaria account, subscription, or cloud backend, so the knowledge base remains usable in other tools.

NocoBase is an open-source no-code platform for assembling business applications such as CRM, ERP, and internal operations tools. Teams can configure data models, pages, workflows, and permissions in a visual interface, while coding agents can assist with setup, development, and migration. AI actions follow the same role and audit boundaries as human users, and the platform can work with owned databases, external databases, APIs, and an extensible plugin model.

AiShort is a multilingual prompt library where users can search by keyword or scenario, copy a prompt, and paste it into ChatGPT-style interfaces, coding assistants such as Cursor, or their own API workflows. Browsing does not require an account. Signed-in users can organize collections, create custom prompts, export their data as JSON, and publish or discuss prompts with the community. The library is available as a website and browser sidebar extension, can be self-hosted, and offers an offline edition that stores data locally for intranet or air-gapped use.

Add focused skills for App Store release notes, GitHub operations, iOS debugging, macOS packaging, SwiftUI and React improvements, and multi-agent review or bug-hunt workflows. Each skill is self-contained and installed under the Codex skills directory, so developers can invoke only the workflow relevant to the current project. The collection is especially useful for recurring Apple-platform and code-quality tasks.
