anonnerdfrenzy/survival-llm

AI agents · Python

+130stars on 2026-10-29 · UTC

A local offline LLM assistant with a library of ~1.5M survival, medical and how-to articles; every answer cites the exact source passage.

Useful for
  • Look up water purification or burn treatment steps with no internet connection
  • Add your own PDFs and documents so the assistant searches them too
  • Check where an answer came from by opening the cited passage and its license
Before using
  • No license is listed in the GitHub data; check the usage terms
  • Installation and requirements have not been verified; review the README before running

Edge0-AI/Edge0

Language models · Python

+1,225stars on 2026-10-29 · UTC

An open-source streaming MoE inference framework: expert weights are offloaded from SSD on demand while a trained prerouter predicts routing ahead of time. Runs on Apple Silicon via MLX and ships with two ready-to-run model tiers (35B and 8B).

Useful for
  • Run a 35B MoE model on a Mac with 16 GB RAM without loading all experts into memory
  • Serve an OpenAI-compatible /v1/chat/completions endpoint via edge0 serve
  • Plug in a custom backend (e.g. CUDA) through the edge0/backends/base.py facade

horizon-rust/horizon

Games & graphics · Rust

+305stars on 2026-10-29 · UTC

A from-scratch Rust reimplementation of Minecraft: Java Edition that loads vanilla worlds and is validated against the original through 281 differential test harnesses. It also exposes a CLI and MCP interface so scripts and AI agents can play.

Useful for
  • Run a vanilla-compatible singleplayer world in Rust via the Horizon launcher.
  • Control the game from a script or AI agent using horizon-ctl commands or the MCP server.
  • Host a dedicated server and invite friends over Tailscale without needing Java.
