BongoCat

RunCat Neo is a macOS menu-bar utility with a running cat animation whose stride speed reflects CPU load. It can watch local JSON files in a documented format and render their contents as dashboard cards, including metrics such as GPU temperature, Claude Code usage, GitHub contributions, and reminders. Users can also create custom keyframe-based runner animations distributed through the Runner Gallery. The project is written in Swift and uses the LUCA architecture for SwiftUI development. The repository lists macOS 26.3 or later as compatible and provides installation through the App Store.

VPet is an open-source desktop pet, shimeji, and virtual-pet application for Windows, developed as part of the VUP-Simulator project. It provides interactive pets with animations and actions such as head-patting, lifting, and wall-climbing, and is available as a free Steam application. The project also provides a core library that can be embedded in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications. Its architecture includes animation loading and rendering, pet and item data, save functionality, window controls, dialogue, themes, and work-timer components. Steam Workshop support allows users to add or modify pet animations, items, dialogue, work content, themes, and plugins; plugins can add code-based features or animation systems such as Live2D and Spine. The source is available on GitHub, and the project is distributed under Apache License 2.0 subject to separate copyright and authorization terms for the included animation and image assets.

Bot Crossing is a local web application that visualizes coding-agent threads as an astronaut colony. It reads session records from installed agent harnesses on the user's machine, maps repositories to persistent hex zones, and represents sessions as astronauts whose behavior reflects states such as running, waiting, errored, merged, archived, or inactive. Selecting an astronaut or repository opens its associated thread through the owning harness, while the application can also start sessions, reveal folders, mark threads viewed, and archive them. The application uses per-harness adapters to scan local session files and merge them into a common thread model. It currently documents support for Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor, with adapters for other harnesses able to be added under `server/harnesses/`. Astronaut navigation uses a rasterized navigation grid, A* routing, string-pulling, collision handling, and crowd separation. The browser renders the colony with Three.js techniques including instanced GPU-skinned astronauts, shader-based construction progress, procedural terrain and surfaces, and configurable planets, lighting, and quality settings. Bot Crossing runs locally through a Vite development server or a built Node server, binds to loopback by default, and stores the colony layout in `data/colony.json`. It does not upload session data or use an account; it reads harness records and writes only the colony state plus the documented archive field. The repository requires Node 22.13 or newer, supports macOS, Linux, and Windows, and is licensed under MIT. Bundled Kay Lousberg assets are separately covered by CC0, while bundled Material Design Icons use Apache-2.0.

Sprite Studio is a local-first, open-source desktop AI workbench for creating, animating, testing, organizing, and exporting 2D game art. It combines prompt- and reference-based generation with pixel-scale review, sprite viewing, animation planning, loop testing, rigging, deterministic rendering, and PNG sprite-sheet export with metadata. For animation, the AI plans a complete motion sequence and generates frames sequentially using the source asset's identity and neighboring accepted frames. Its native Rust rig engine uses named joint, anchor, contact, and pivot points plus capsule bones; it assigns opaque pixels to bones, supports planted contacts through analytic two-bone inverse kinematics, and renders frames through bone transforms and nearest-neighbor inverse mapping without image generation. The resulting frames flow into asset organization, quality analysis, the playground, and exports. The application runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux and is built with Tauri, Svelte, Rust, SQLite, and an installed Codex CLI. It is designed for local-first use and does not target Android or iOS.

kimodo.cpp is a C++ and GGML implementation of NVIDIA's Kimodo text-to-motion model for local CPU or Vulkan inference. It accepts UTF-8 prompts or precomputed 4096-value F32 LLM2Vec embeddings and generates root translations plus local XYZW rotations for several control skeletons, including SMPL-X, SOMA, and Unitree G1 formats. The project includes GGUF model loading with validation, Safetensors conversion, DDIM sampling, conditioned multi-prompt transitions, C and C++ APIs, CPU/Vulkan parity tests, skeleton-only GLB export, and a local browser demo. Its native API returns the joints predicted by the selected model; features such as general constraint input, SOMA's 77-joint expansion, skinned-mesh GLB export, and quantized models are not implemented.
