Moltis recently hit the front page of Hacker News. Please open an issue for any friction at all. I'm focused on making Moltis excellent.
Secure by design — Your keys never leave your machine. Every command runs in a sandboxed container, never on your host.
Your hardware — Runs on a Mac Mini, a Raspberry Pi, or any server you own. One Rust binary, no Node.js, no npm, no runtime.
Full-featured — Voice, memory, cross-session recall, automatic edit checkpoints, scheduling, Telegram, Signal, Discord, browser automation, MCP servers, SSH or node-backed remote exec, managed deploy keys with host pinning in the web UI, a live Settings → Tools inventory, Cursor-compatible project context, and context-file threat scanning — all built-in. No plugin marketplace to get supply-chain attacked through.
Auditable — The agent runner and model interface fit in ~7.5K lines, with providers in ~19K more. The Rust workspace is ~270K lines across 59 modular crates you can audit independently, with 470+ Rust files containing tests. Unsafe code is isolated to FFI and precompiled runtime boundaries, not the core agent loop.

Moltis is a local-first persistent agent server — a single Rust binary that sits between you and multiple LLM providers, keeps durable session state, and can meet you across channels without handing your data to a cloud relay.
