OpenLoomi: an open-source, local-first AI work agent (Apache 2.0)

Been building this for a while and it finally feels okay to share here. It's called OpenLoomi, an open-source, local-first AI work agent. The thing I was trying to fix is that every AI assistant forgets everything the second a conversation ends, so you end up re-explaining your projects over and over.

The approach is a context graph across your messaging and email. Slack, Discord, Gmail, Telegram and a few others are wired up right now. It keeps a longer-term memory of projects, people, and what's still open, then it can do small proactive things like draft a reply or log an update. Nothing actually executes until you approve it.

The part that matters to me is that it's local-first. Raw messages and files stay on your machine, it's Apache 2.0, and you can self-host it (clone, build, run). I didn't want to pipe my whole inbox into someone else's cloud just to get memory.

Being honest about where it's at:

• it's v0.5, so expect rough edges and bugs
• it only knows what you actually connect. GitHub and calendar aren't hooked up yet (still on the coming-soon list), so today it's mostly chat + email context
• bring your own LLM key
• desktop only, no mobile

Mostly curious what people here think about the local-first tradeoff for an agent like this. You do more setup than a hosted tool that "just works," but your data never leaves the machine. Wondering if that setup cost is a dealbreaker for most of you or worth it.
