>> Project number one, Farra 7B ondevice AI that uses your computer like a human.
Imagine having an assistant that doesn't just answer questions. It actually uses your computer, clicking, typing, and navigating just like you would to get things done. That's what FAR 7B
things done. That's what FAR 7B delivers. It's the first Agentic small
delivers. It's the first Agentic small language model SLM from Microsoft built specifically for computer use. With only
about 7 billion parameters, Farra 7B is compact enough to run on local devices, giving you speed, privacy, and direct control. Instead of generating just
control. Instead of generating just text, Farra 7B operates via pixelin, action out. It sees screenshots of a web
action out. It sees screenshots of a web page or UI, reasons about what to do, then outputs exact coordinates for clicks, scrolls, or keystrokes. No need
for accessibility trees or separate parsers. Behind the scenes, it's built
parsers. Behind the scenes, it's built on a base multimodal model and trained using a synthetic data pipeline called Farragen that generated over 145,000 verified trajectories across tens of
thousands of real websites. On
benchmarks, Farra 7B achieves strong performance, even beating some larger Agentic models on live web interaction tasks. This model is aimed at
tasks. This model is aimed at developers, power users, and teams who want to automate web-based tasks, booking tickets, filling forms, comparing prices, summarizing info while
keeping data local, and preserving privacy. It runs on device or via
privacy. It runs on device or via self-hosted infrastructure with much lower latency and cost compared to cloud-based agents. Give it a try and

Project number three, Claude Code Open Router. Route Claude Code to any LLM via
Router. Route Claude Code to any LLM via Open Router. Imagine you're using Claude
Open Router. Imagine you're using Claude Code, the terminal-based AI coding assistant, but instead of being locked to a single provider, you can call almost any large language model by name
just by writing its name in your prompt.
That's what claude code open router does. It adapts claude code to route
does. It adapts claude code to route requests through open router giving you access to a wide variety of models like Grock, Gemini, GLM 4.6, GPT5 and more
via a unified interface. The project is MIT licensed and lightweight. You grab
your open router API key, drop it into a nenbin, then claude code plus this agent will intercept prompts like use grock to summarize this file or ask Gemini to
rewrite this function, forward them to open router and save output into a local file under llm-output/phere.
This matters now because it breaks you free from model lock, giving developers, hobbyists, and AI toolbuilders flexibility to pick a model by need.
Lowcost models for quick tasks, heavier models for complex work while staying inside the same workflow. It bridges
Claude Code's convenience with Open Router's model agnostic reach. Give it a try and see how your coding and prompt experiments multiply across model choices. Project number four, Folio AI
choices. Project number four, Folio AI powered GitHub portfolio generator.
Imagine you drop your GitHub username into a tool and instantly get a polished professional portfolio website without writing a single HTML line yourself.
That's exactly what Folio does. It's an
open-source GPL 3.0 web app built with TypeScript/Next.js that fetches your GitHub data via the GraphQL API, runs AI to generate summary
texts, highlights, and descriptions, and then renders a full responsive portfolio site. Folio uses a backend with Posgrex
site. Folio uses a backend with Posgrex Prisma for data storage and caches GitHub metadata to reduce rate limits and speed up generation. It also
optionally integrates LinkedIn data and can fetch live project screenshots for rich visuals. As soon as you supply a
rich visuals. As soon as you supply a username and optionally a GitHub token to include private repos, Folio builds your profile, project list, languages/contributions,
graph, etc. The result, a readyto-share, clean portfolio site ideal for developers, freelancers, and creators who want to show off their code and projects quickly and elegantly. If you
want to save time and get a professional web presence from existing GitHub work, Folio is worth trying. See how fast your portfolio goes live. Project number

dragging boxes and wires in a browser.
And those boxes actually do work. That's
what RetJS brings to life. It's an
open-source TypeScript first framework that helps developers build visual node-based editors and workflows directly in the browser. With RetJS
brings to lifeJS, you define nodes with inputs, outputs, or controls. Connect
them visually like wiring and run them through either a data flow engine or a control flow engine to execute logic or process data. The framework supports
process data. The framework supports major UI stacks, React, Vue, Angular, even LIT. So you can integrate a node
even LIT. So you can integrate a node editor into your web app without reinventing the wheel because it separates visualization from logic.
RetJSJS gives creators flexibility. You
pick exactly which plugins and UI frameworks you need. No unnecessary
bloat. This makes it ideal for building things like visual data pipelines, drag and drop automation tools, education apps, game logic editors, or custom workflow designers. If you want a
workflow designers. If you want a powerful way to turn codeheavy logic into an accessible graphical interface and give users a way to build, connect, and run workflows by drag and drop, give
