milind-soni/OpenMausBot (724 stars since August 11, Electron + React 19, MIT) makes each sidebar bot a real local Claude or Codex agent with its own personality, model, cloud computer, and connected apps, with approval gates. Distributes as a signed notarized one-click .dmg for Apple silicon. The README opens with a direct disclaimer that there's no token and no crypto affiliation, which tells you something about the current state of open-source agent projects.
