Show HN: Local Voice Assistant
Several weeks ago I built a fully-local voice assistant demo with a FastAPI backend and a simple HTML front-end. All the models (ASR / LLM / TTS) are open weight and running locally, i.e. no data is being sent to the Internet nor any API. It's intended to demonstrate how easy it is to run a fully-local AI setup on affordable commodity hardware, while also demonstrating the uncanny valley and teasing out the ethical considerations of such a setup - it allows you to perform voice cloning.
Link: https://github.com/acatovic/ova
Models used:
ASR: NVIDIA parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v3 600M LLM: Mistral ministral-3 3b 4-bit quantized TTS (Simple): Hexgrad Kokoro 82M TTS (With Voice Cloning): Qwen3-TTS
It implements a classic ASR -> LLM -> TTS architecture:
1. Frontend captures user's audio and sends a blob of bytes to the backend /chat endpoint
2. Backend parses the bytes, extracts sample rate (SR) and channels, then:
2.1. Transcribes the audio to text using an automatic speech recognition (ASR) model
2.2. Sends the transcribed text to the LLM, i.e. "the brain"
2.3. Sends the LLM response to a text-to-speech (TTS) model
2.4. Performs normalization of TTS output, converts it to bytes, and sends the bytes back to frontend
3. The frontend plays the response audio back to the user
I've had a number of people try it out with great success and you can potentially take it any direction, e.g. give it more capabilities so it can offload "hard" tasks to larger models or agents, enable voice streaming, give it skills or knowledge, etc.
Enjoy!

Show HN: Cai – AI actions on your clipboard, runs locally (macOS, open source)
I've spent a lot of time copy-pasting and switching between apps to summarize text, create events, proofread emails, look up addresses — always the same follow-up steps after copying.
So I built Cai. It sits in the menu bar. Press Option+C, it detects what you copied and shows relevant actions. Ships with llama-server (Ministral 3B) so it works out of the box, or connect Ollama/LM Studio if you already use them.
Free and open source. Would love feedback on what content types or actions to add next.

Show HN: Kremis – Deterministic memory graph for AI agents (Rust)
Hi HN — I built Kremis, an experimental deterministic memory substrate for AI agents.
I was tired of "black-box" memory where you can't trace why an agent "remembers" or "hallucinates" something. Kremis is an attempt to fix this by using a deterministic graph engine instead of probabilistic embeddings for core state.
Key features:
- Zero Hidden State: Every query result is a concrete path in a graph. You can audit exactly why the AI reached a conclusion. - Strict Determinism: Same input leads to the same graph state. No randomness or floating-point drift in the core logic. - ACID Reliable: Built on redb for crash-safe persistent storage.
How to use it: It ships as a Rust library, a CLI/HTTP API, and an MCP Server. You can plug it directly into Claude Desktop or Cursor to give your AI assistants a verifiable memory.
Development was heavily AI-assisted, and I'm sharing it today to get technical feedback from the Rust and AI community on the architecture.
I'd value your thoughts on: 1. Does a deterministic graph feel like a viable path for long-term agent memory? 2. How can I improve the query ergonomics for complex traversals?
Thanks for any feedback!

Show HN: cc-costline – See your Claude Code spend right in the statusline
I've been using Claude Code as my daily driver and had no easy way to track spending over time. The built-in statusline shows session stats, but nothing about historical cost or how close I am to hitting usage limits.
cc-costline replaces Claude Code's statusline with one that shows rolling cost totals, usage limit warnings, and optionally your rank on the ccclub leaderboard — all in a single line:
``` 14.6k ~ $2.42 / 40% by Opus 4.6 | 5h: 45% / 7d: 8% | 30d: $866 ```
What each segment means:
- `14.6k ~ $2.42 / 40% by Opus 4.6` — session tokens, cost, context window usage, model - `5h: 45% / 7d: 8%` — Claude's 5-hour and 7-day usage limits (color-coded: green → orange → red) - `30d: $866` — rolling 30-day total (configurable to 7d or both)
Setup is one command:
``` npm i -g cc-costline && cc-costline install ```
