LobsterAI is an OpenClaw-based desktop agent that uses local tools for spreadsheet analysis, document and presentation creation, web research, browser automation, video work, and scheduled tasks. It ships with 28 configured skills, supports additional MCP servers, and can receive commands from WeChat, Feishu, DingTalk, or Telegram for remote desktop workflows.

Skill Scanner checks individual skills, directories, or repositories with static rules, shell-pipeline taint analysis, Python dataflow analysis, and optional LLM or cloud engines. It can produce SARIF or HTML reports and run in CI or pre-commit workflows with custom policies. Results are best effort: finding nothing does not certify a skill as safe, so human review remains necessary.

Local Lens is a desktop photo organizer that groups a library using face recognition, capture dates, and location metadata. Photo analysis and organization run locally, so users can sort personal collections without sending images to a cloud service. It is aimed at people who want automated organization while keeping their library on their own machine. macOS users can install it through the project's Homebrew tap, while development builds require Python, Node, Rust, and platform-specific imaging dependencies.

SONE gives Linux users a native desktop client for browsing their TIDAL library, managing playback, and sending lossless audio directly to an ALSA device or DAC at source rates up to 24-bit/192kHz. It also includes synced lyrics, a floating mini player, and scrobbling integrations. An active TIDAL subscription is required, and the client streams music only rather than supporting offline downloads.

awesome-privacy is a curated directory for finding privacy- and security-focused software and services. It organizes options across file encryption, email clients, mobile apps, VPNs, DNS providers, ad blockers, desktop operating systems, and self-hosted tools, with concise notes and deeper reports for many entries. It is useful as a starting point for product selection, but current policies, pricing, and security claims should still be verified independently.

Turn product usage events into invoices for subscription, consumption-based, or hybrid pricing. The API-first platform combines metering, entitlements, automated billing, payment retries, gateway orchestration, and revenue reporting while remaining payment-processor independent. Teams can use its cloud service or run the open-source stack with Docker Compose and connect through REST APIs and SDKs. Self-hosted deployments collect basic action analytics by default; the documentation excludes customer PII and financial data and provides an opt-out.

Final2x is a cross-platform desktop tool for enlarging low-resolution images with super-resolution models, producing higher-resolution output without requiring a command-line workflow. Its current backend also supports custom models. Releases are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, although platform setup differs: Linux users need Python 3.9 or newer, PyTorch 2.0 or newer, and additional system dependencies. On macOS, the first launch may require a terminal command to remove the downloaded app’s quarantine restriction.

mcp-searxng is a standalone MCP server that connects one or more existing SearXNG instances to assistants such as Claude or Cursor. It supports paginated web, news, and article searches, time and language filters, suggestions, instance capability discovery, and conversion of readable URLs to Markdown. Multiple interchangeable replicas can fail over or be queried in parallel and merged. The project is not a SearXNG plugin, and it requires at least a configured SearXNG instance URL.

ClearDisk is a macOS menu bar app for finding rebuildable data left by Xcode, package managers, Docker, and local projects. It explains each cache, assigns a risk level, and moves selected files to Trash rather than deleting them permanently. The current build requires macOS 14 or later on Apple Silicon, and downloaded releases are not notarized by Apple.

Curses converts speech recognition or keyboard input into captions that can be shown in OBS, VRChat, Twitch chat, or Discord. Streamers can design caption scenes, copy the generated link into an OBS browser source, or let the app configure OBS through the obs-websocket plugin. It also supports switching designs alongside OBS scenes and routing chat messages into captions or text-to-speech. Recognition and voice output depend on the selected browser, cloud, or Windows service, so credentials and availability vary by provider.

PLANKA lets individuals and teams organize work with draggable projects, boards, lists, and cards while changes sync in real time. It supports Markdown descriptions, configurable notifications, and OpenID Connect sign-in, with both self-hosted and hosted options. The project uses fair-code licensing, so commercial deployments should review the applicable license terms.

Neru extends browser-style keyboard navigation across the operating system. Labels, grids, recursive grids, and Vim-like scrolling let users move the pointer, click, right-click, drag, and scroll without reaching for a mouse. The tool is CLI-first, stores settings in a hot-reloadable TOML file, and can be driven by Raycast, Alfred, Hammerspoon, or shell scripts. macOS has the complete feature set and requires Accessibility permission, while Linux and Windows currently provide more limited support.

Dokku is a small, self-hosted platform as a service that turns a Linux virtual machine into a Heroku-like environment for building and managing application lifecycles. It suits individuals or small teams that want control of the host without operating a larger cloud platform. The documented setup requires a supported Ubuntu or Debian machine and an SSH key, followed by configuration of the server domain and user access.

ASO Skills gives indie developers and growth teams agent playbooks for keyword research, metadata optimization, competitor analysis, screenshots, icons, launches, paid acquisition, analytics, and listing tests. The skills run in Cursor, Claude Code, and other compatible agents, using Appeeky API data to produce scorecards and recommendations. Live analysis depends on access to the supporting service.

ClawWork is a local-first desktop and PWA client that connects to the user's own OpenClaw installation. It runs multiple tasks in parallel with isolated sessions, keeps generated artifacts durable, and provides full-text search across tasks, messages, and files. Users can also schedule recurring runs, review usage and cost, and install multi-agent teams or skills from community registries. Builds are available for macOS, Windows, and Linux. The current product is optimized for OpenClaw; support for additional agent runtimes remains a future direction.

FIRERPA combines Android remote desktop, UI automation, OCR and image matching, traffic capture, Frida, proxy networking, and device operations behind one on-device service and Python client. It can work with or without root and expose controls through a browser, APIs, MCP clients, or a natural-language agent. The platform targets automation engineering, mobile security work, and long-running device farms, so its breadth and deployment complexity go well beyond a simple phone mirroring utility.

These skills let an agent use the inference.sh CLI for image and video generation, LLM calls, web search, and social automation. The repository also includes JavaScript and Python SDK guidance, agent UI components, and workflow guides for content and product tasks. Cloud-backed use requires the belt CLI and an authenticated inference.sh account.

humanize contains two static, dependency-free agent skills. One rewrites or generates prose using nine research-derived levers for rhythm, specificity, voice, and structure; the other examines nine categories of signals associated with AI-generated writing. The rules draw on more than 50 sources and work across many agents, though any detection-style judgment remains sensitive to changing methods and imperfect signals.
