Original Summary

Hi HN,<p>I built and open-sourced Carve to handle repetitive work in windows you already use.<p>Choose the window in any Mac app where you want it to work, press Option-D, and watch it do what you want. For example, in the demo I show an example CRM and Carve entering contact details and drafting a follow up. It also has the ability to annotate and explain items on the screen.<p>This runs with your own API keys, and can even support OpenRouter, though OpenAI is the best tested. Experimental adapters also for Bedrock, Azure. No reason it couldn&#x27;t expand beyond experimental support to support more local models.<p>I built this because I found that Claude and Codex were rather clunky when using computer use, I like having a sleek window that just pops up and shows me what it&#x27;s doing. Also it has the 3 similar modes (approve plan, step by step manual approval, or act directly mode).<p>Local currently covers browser actions via vision models, computer use support is required for operating other native mac apps. This is an ongoing area of work.<p>I&#x27;m seeing a lot of demand for local model support and building out relevant tooling so wanted to contribute. We&#x27;re just now at the point where models are getting fast and smart enough to make rapid computer use possible. You can take a look at the benchmarks in the repository, Carve currently can rapidly and cheaply handle explaining, summarizing, basic navigation, and extraction. Complex, long horizon tasks are a work in progress, though I&#x27;m seeing promising results. Failures resemble patterns, and you can identify patterns and fix them by running evaluations in batches.<p>I&#x27;d love any feedback on how well the tool works, what you tried, and any issues that you found. Thank you!
