About the project

Gentle Dot is a desktop AI assistant for macOS and Linux that keeps a continuous conversation with persistent Engram memory, reads files, and can control apps and the screen with per-session approval.

Useful for
  • Summon the assistant with ⌥ Space to ask about what is on screen
  • Attach a file to the chat and have the assistant read it
  • Approve a screen-control session to let the assistant click and type in your apps

4.0 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 11, 2026, 01:31 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

050100October 9, 2026October 11, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-11 (UTC), 00:38–01:21: 125 → 126 stars (+1). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +27 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 2 days old and already has 126 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Top new repositories this week: #186.
  • About 15 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
