01
OpenCode Superapp gives you the power of agentic coding on your own terms. You can run cloud or local models in a native environment where agents understand your files, Git history, and terminal commands. It even allows agents to interact with your Mac apps through supervised computer use. The app is private by design and highly extensible, allowing you to choose the models you trust while keeping full control over your development workflow.
02
OpenComputer offers the simplest way to deploy a managed agent for your projects. You just describe what you want the agent to do and paste a single prompt into your coding assistant. Within moments, you receive a live URL to access and manage your agent. It removes the complexity of setting up infrastructure, letting you focus on building features and getting results faster.
03
Velane is a comprehensive platform designed to manage the tools and functions of your AI agents. It is built for seamless integration with tools like Claude, Codex, and Cursor. Key features include a code sandbox with zero cold start times, robust version control, and distinct environments for development, staging, and production. With over 800 integrations, it acts as a complete replacement for your traditional iPaaS solution.
04
FluentDB is a fast, secure, and simple AI-powered database client for macOS. It supports major databases like PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, and SQL Server with more updates planned. You can use your own API keys for Anthropic and OpenAI or connect via Claude Code and Codex, plus local models through Ollama. Security is a priority because your data stays on your machine. AI models only see your database schema, and every generated SQL query requires your manual approval before it runs.
Localskills allows you to create, share, and install reusable agent skills and rules for tools like Cursor, Claude Code, and Windsurf. With a single install command, you can easily equip all your development tools with the specific capabilities you need to get work done.
06
Openbase lets you manage your team of AI coding agents entirely by voice. You no longer need to be stuck at your desk or glued to a screen to supervise your projects. You can dispatch tasks, guide agents while they are working, and approve code changes just by talking to them from your phone. These agents handle the heavy lifting like writing code, controlling your computer, opening pull requests, and pushing commits. It works with all major AI providers and syncs with your local machine, so you can pick up exactly where you left off the moment you sit back down at your desk.
07
Heard acts as a smart voice layer for your macOS agent workflows. It connects to tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor to turn text outputs into spoken summaries you can listen to anywhere. You get full commentary when you are away from your screen or just silence until an error occurs that requires your attention. Because it summarizes at the project level, you avoid the noise of multiple terminals talking at once. It even works with your phone so you can stay updated on the go. The project is open source and free for personal use.
08
Capsomnia turns your Caps Lock key into a physical switch that prevents your MacBook from going to sleep. This lets you keep processes like AI agents, SSH sessions, builds, and downloads running even after you close the lid. If you prefer a different key, you can easily remap the shortcut. The Caps Lock light stays functional to show you when the app is active. This tool is free, open source, and includes no accounts or telemetry. It has already gained significant popularity with over 2 million views and thousands of downloads.
09
Garry Tan's open-sourced gstack specialists allow you to bring experts like a CEO, CSO, or QA lead into your Google Meet sessions as voice bots with 3D avatars. They participate in your meetings by taking turns, critiquing your shared screen, and dropping helpful notes in the chat. It is a free, MIT-licensed tool built on AgentCall that acts as an extension of your own coding-agent session.
10
It is frustrating when agents pass initial evaluations only to fail once they hit production. Prefactor acts as a dedicated evaluation layer designed to bridge this performance gap. It scores every agent run in real time, alerting you to quality regressions or drift the moment they occur. Engineering teams get a clear view of how their agents behave at scale, making it much easier to ship reliable products to customers.
