Show HN: An OSS browser and work environment for humans and agents

A developer released Zephium, an open-source browser and work environment built in Rust on a forked Wry WebView, sized at 40 MB and not a Chromium fork, with native adblocking via a forked adblock-rust and support for major Chrome extensions. Zephium adds a "Work mode" canvas where users and AI agents browse, research and build together, with live browser sessions and parallel sub-agents, and AI can be disabled in one click; the browser ships with no telemetry and supports bring-your-own-key and local models. The project was posted to Hacker News as a Show HN with 1 point and 0 comments.

Fast, private, fully-featured, built in Rust (forked Wry, system's WebView). 40 MB. Not a Chromium fork. Native adblocking (forked adblock-rust), major Chrome extension support, deeply integrated productivity tools, a custom agentic browsing engine, and a lot more. It's not just another wrapper built in a few days.

And... Work mode: a shared environment where you and AI agents can browse, research, build, and get real work done together. Live browser sessions, parallel sub-agents, tools, files, components, and interactive results, all in one canvas.

AI is optional (disable in one click). No telemetry. BYOK support and local models.
