- Scaffolds and launches apps, then checks that they respond
- Remembers the task across messages
Requirements

Network
Inference is local. Three features use the network: model downloads, the web_search and web_fetch tools, and any MCP servers you add. See Network Boundary for the full list.
Why local?
Powerful, personal AI should work for everyone, on any device, anywhere. That means running it locally. localcode is a first step.
