This is what native feels like. No Electron. No Python runtime. Just Swift on Apple Silicon.

@DinokiLabs neatly done, they call it native for a reason

@DinokiLabs Yeah but does it have any features that make it different to the 100 other options? This is prettier but from experience I know that aint enough.

What features would you like to see? Here's some features that I like: - native plugins registry (inspired by homebrew!) - custom themes (create your own, inspired by winamp) - API router (output formats to OpenAI/Ollama/Anthropic API) - 10MB binary size - free & open source

Thank you! Give it a try (it's free & open source) and let me know if you have any feedback

@DinokiLabs Yeah, I just installed it. I tried opening it from raycast after installation but no luck. Running osaurus ui from the terminal works okay.

Osaurus's profile picture
Osaurus9 months ago

Interesting. I will look into that. Haven't tested with Raycast as much

@DinokiLabs it should be similar to spotlight's launcher. I tried to use the application menu but no luck either. I will try again after a restart

Did you install it using brew?

Kehinde's profile picture

@DinokiLabs yeah, brew. false alarm, the ui doesn't show up but I see it in my menu bar. all good.

@DinokiLabs Tbh I'm missing those 3 dots to make it feel truly native... Still, the interface looks amazing and I'm gonna try it today!

@DinokiLabs Looks really nice I do love native but the issue with me is the learning curve and the experience needed to build something

@DinokiLabs Thank you! Can i pick your brain a sec? I enabled all of the available tools, i'm trying to take a screenshot and save to disk. Foundation models works all the way to save to disk, then fails. If i use other models or ML Studio, it doesnt use the tools. Am i doing somethin wrong?

@DinokiLabs Fantastic native app, i'm so far in love! This + ML Studio + Mac Studio home server is going to be a slick setup.

@DinokiLabs This sorta reminds me of Bavarder. Not really an AI chatbot person myself, but that comes to mind as a GNOME equivalent to this. Let's build more native apps!

drefrajo's profile picture
drefrajo9 months ago

@DinokiLabs Neat! Does this support something similar to the "Connect with Xcode" feature that the ChatGPT app has (where it can read open files from my IDEs)?

Osaurus's profile picture
Osaurus9 months ago

Not yet, but can be built if that's something you want

drefrajo's profile picture
drefrajo9 months ago

@DinokiLabs Well, I don’t use that feature terribly often ever since discovering the agent mode in Copilot, but it does come in handy when I want to give the AI access to code from different code bases at the same time.

Osaurus's profile picture
Osaurus9 months ago

Ya, osaurus can have accessibility features so should be possible to add something like that.

@DinokiLabs Software so good that it needs social media influencers trying to convince people to use it 24/7.

So you guys are like Ollama but smaller, but like MLX style ?(iOs native) Correct me if I'm wrong please . Im running Qwen3.5-9B 6Bits ,4Bits and Qwen2.5 Coder -1.5B locally on my M5 What are the advantages here ? I'm a avid Openclaw user and I prefer local LLMs looks cool .

You can use OpenClaw with Osaurus. It’s universally compatible

@DinokiLabs I’ve been thinking about native since android can run swift. There might be an incentive to drop react native.
