osaurus: Osaurus is an AI edge runtime for macOS, leveraging Apple Silicon for optimized local inference and connecting to various cloud models. It provides a native foundation for AI applications, exposing tools via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and supporting custom assistants and automated workflows.; memem: memem is a Claude Code plugin that gives persistent memory across sessions. It automatically extracts durable lessons from completed sessions, stores them as markdown in an Obsidian vault, and surfaces relevant ones as an Active Memory Slice. It is local-first with no cloud services.
