Hobbes: The AI That Actually Knows You.
Private. Local-First. Your Exocortex.
Key Features
Context Composition
Stay in the zone without repeating yourself. Unlike standard chatbots that "forget" the thread, Hobbes actively synthesizes your goals into a persistent memory object that evolves with your project.
Safe Agent Actions
Actual work, not just advice. Connect to GitHub, ClickUp, and Slack via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Every action is gated by your explicit permission, keeping you in the driver's seat.
Modular Skillsets
Teach your agent new tricks in seconds. Extend Hobbes with simple Markdown "Skills." Define custom instructions and tools for specific workflows without writing a single line of code.
Knowledge Sovereignty
Your data, your rules. Your conversations and conversation data live on your local SSD, not in a cloud database. Deep privacy is the default, not a feature.
Transparent Reasoning
Native support for "Thinking" models. Watch Hobbes reason through problems, self-correct, and show its work in real-time.
Keychain Security
Hobbes leverages macOS Keychain and Biometric TouchID to store your API keys. Your "Bridges" are as secure as banking data.

Case Study
We built ourselves a powerful AI client.
We started building Hobbes in 2025 as a simple news filter to survive the noise. But as 'Prompt Engineering' died, we realized we needed more than a chatbot—we needed a 'Thinking Ecosystem.' By 2026, we pivoted Hobbes into a local-first graph agent that emulates thought, replacing our manual context-switching with a system that actually remembers the strategy, not just the syntax.
