Your machine's AI brain. One 20MB binary gives every tool, script, and cron job shared AI memory + 133 API routes. Desktop app, CLI, Telegram — all connected. Rust-powered.

Zenii is a local daemon that provides a shared AI backend for desktop apps, CLI tools, TUI, scripts, and MCP clients. It offers persistent memory, provider routing, and tool execution via a REST API on localhost:18981. Built with Rust/Tauri, it supports multiple AI providers and includes tools like MCP server and client.
