The Repo List — every repo from my series, kept updated

A developer maintains a curated list of repositories from a series, updated with the newest first. Featured projects include Quill, a macOS app that records and transcribes audio locally, and Parrot, a local voice-to-text tool, both by the same developer. Cloudflare's Computer project provides a persistent filesystem for AI agents, and Cloudflare OS is an open-sourced agent workspace used by thousands of employees.

Every repo from my series, newest first. I keep this same link updated — save it.

Follow me on Instagram for the next one: @angelotrifanoff.ai

https://github.com/digimata/quill

git clone https://github.com/digimata/quill.git
cd quill
swift build -c release
sudo cp .build/release/quill /usr/local/bin/quill

Click the feather in your menu bar to record, click stop and it transcribes right on your Mac. It records your mic and the system audio as two separate tracks, so the transcript already knows who said what — you vs them — with no speaker-detection model. No account, no upload, no bot joining your call. Everything lands in ~/Recordings/

— both audio tracks plus a transcript you can read or hand straight to Claude. Same developer as Parrot below.

Heads up: you build it from source (no installer yet), it needs macOS 15+ (Apple Silicon recommended), and the first transcription downloads the models (~600 MB) once. If the menu bar icon disappears it's still recording.

Your agent writes some files, the session ends, and they're gone. This gives it a filesystem that actually survives — the files live in a database, so the agent can go to sleep and everything's still sitting there when it wakes up.

Three ways to run code against those same files: a full Linux container when it needs real programs, a shell that runs with no container at all, or plain JavaScript. Cloudflare says a container is only needed for under 10% of the work.

Heads up: this is preview only, not for production. The APIs are unstable and Cloudflare says so themselves. Read it to see where agents are going, don't build on it yet.

https://github.com/digimata/parrot

curl -fsSL https://digimata.github.io/parrot/install.sh | sh
parrot setup

Hold the fn key, talk, let go — the text types itself in at your cursor. Runs small AI models locally on the Neural Engine, so your voice never leaves your Mac. No cloud, no account, no subscription. Menu bar app, single Swift binary, macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon.

Heads up: builds are unsigned right now, and if the menu bar icon disappears it's still running.

https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflare-os

git clone https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflare-os.git
cd cloudflare-os
pnpm run-local

Then open http://localhost:8787 — the whole stack runs on your machine.

The agent workspace thousands of Cloudflare employees (not just engineers) use daily — agent chat preloaded with company context, sandboxed "gadget" app building, and a security layer (Gatekeepers) so non-technical people can't break anything. Apache 2.0, open-sourced during Agent Week (Aug 2026).
