smux 🔮🔮🔮🔮○

software

If you already live in tmux and want multiple CLI agents to coordinate across panes, smux is one of the cleanest bridge layers available. Its `tmux-bridge` is genuinely powerful, but the security boundary, audit gap, and runtime-context dependence are real, so I would use it selectively.

TimesFM 🔮🔮🔮🔮○

ai-tools

TimesFM is one of the more compelling open models for zero-shot time-series forecasting, especially when you need a fast baseline for univariate data. The hardware requirements are lighter than many expect, but the scope is narrower than the foundation-model label suggests.

OpenSessions 🔮🔮🔮🔮○

software

If you already run multiple AI coding sessions inside tmux, OpenSessions is one of the clearest ways to add a real status layer on top. The sidebar and Programmatic API are the real value, but it is still an alpha tool and should be framed that way.

Type4Me: Local Voice Input for macOS — No Cloud Required 🔮🔮🔮🔮○

ai-tools

Type4Me turns speech into text on your Mac without sending audio to any server. Combines local ASR via SherpaOnnx with optional Ollama LLM rewriting. Free, open-source, and fully offline — but setup requires source builds and macOS permissions.

Termaid 🔮🔮🔮🔮○

ai-tools

Termaid is one of the cleanest ways to preview Mermaid diagrams directly inside the terminal. It is lightweight, low-risk, and genuinely useful for fast syntax checks, but it is still alpha software and should not be framed as a replacement for mermaid-cli.

Katana: Security Web Crawler for Recon Pipelines 🔮🔮🔮🔮○

ai-tools

Katana is a fast, pipeline-friendly web crawler from ProjectDiscovery built for authorized security testing. Dual HTTP and headless browser modes, JSONL output, and scope controls make it a strong fit for recon workflows — within explicit legal boundaries.
