Nice Dreamz LLC · Humboldt County, CA

A three-node ambient-computing mesh, built on Apple Silicon. Code, curiosity, and the right tools.


*"If it takes more than 10 minutes, I automate it. If it needs AI, I build it from scratch."*

🆕 JUST SHIPPED

nemotron-omni-mlx — NVIDIA's Nemotron Omni sees, hears, and reasons, but its vision and audio towers had no open runtime for Apple Silicon. So I wrote one. Pure MLX, MIT, 23/23 parity tests against NVIDIA's PyTorch reference. 67.7 tok/s with an image, 147 tok/s with audio, wifi off. Credit to NVIDIA for the open weights and yayr for the 4-bit conversion.

🧭 WHAT I'M ACTUALLY BUILDING

Most of these repos look standalone. They're not. They're one system spread across three machines that talk to each other 24/7:

• 💻 M5 Max MacBook Pro · 128 GB — heavy compute: model inference, video, image, training
• 🖥️ M4 Mac mini · 64 GB — always-on workhorse: autonomous agents, FiaOS web shell, free Claude for the whole mesh
• ☁️ Hostinger VPS — public gateway: HQ Dashboard, the Ohm chat agent, sites, cron

The idea: Apple Silicon is fast enough now that the everyday AI I want doesn't need a cloud subscription. Build local-first, stay useful when the internet goes down. The same stack is airgap-ready, which matters to the law / medical / compliance-sensitive firms I work with through Nice Dreamz LLC.

Thirteen always-on agents run across those nodes: a GitHub watcher that drafts issue replies with local AI and texts me the draft, a 9am iMessage business briefing, email triage, a Reddit brand watcher, and the trick that powers it all — mini_claude, which lets every agent use my Claude Max plan for $0 per call.

🔒 AIRGAP — A SKILL, NOT A PRODUCT

AirGap is my name for the full private-AI build: a complete AI workstation on one Mac, wifi off, nothing leaving the building. It started as a packaged offering; these days I treat it as a capability I keep sharp rather than something I sell. Everything it needs is open source on this page, so any competent IT person can stand one up without me. That's the point.

⭐ THE FRONT FIVE

> _Sorted by GitHub stars._

Claude Code Local    

Run Claude Code 100% on-device on Apple Silicon. Three models (Gemma 4 31B / Llama 3.3 70B / Qwen 3.5 122B), four modes (code, browser, voice, phone), Anthropic-compatible MLX server, setup.sh picks the right model for your RAM. Your code never leaves your Mac.

MLX Apple Silicon Claude Code Python

NarrateClaude + Ohm   

Talk to your Mac, hear it reply in your own cloned voice. 100% private, works on a plane, and the Ohm web chat brings the same loop to any browser at zero API cost.

| 🎥 | studio-record | Screen + facecam recorder with a local HTTP API, so Claude can record itself working. |
| 🛟 | claude-failover | One command and your claude -p agents keep running on a local MLX model when the cloud is down. |

🤖 THE LONG-ARC BET

Cemani Homestead Robot   

Started with protecting my chickens from predators. Now a 1 kW autonomous tank robot you text from your phone: 601-class vision on a Jetson, dual PTZ cameras, 3D LIDAR, and it pulls a cart of firewood. Actually. The honest goal: a Lego-clip-in modular robotics kit running the same local-AI brain as the desk. VisionBuilder trains its eyes from photos on my phone.

🧾 RECEIPTS — DOES LOCAL ACTUALLY WORK?

Same prompt, three engines, one MacBook (ds4-three-way). Local beat the cloud on wall-clock time:

| ☁️ Cloud Claude (Max plan) | 192 s | Anthropic data center |
| 🟢 Gemma 4 31B (MLX local) | 131 s | Apple Silicon GPU |

🛒 THE STORES

Divine Tribe (vaporizer hardware, American-owned since 2013) plus three more stores — 140+ products, 5,000+ units shipped, all automated by the mesh above. Divine Tribe pays the bills; everything else is downstream.

🌲 WHY THIS EXISTS

I run Divine Tribe — vaporizer hardware, since 2013. Cinch ships those orders. Everything else is downstream of paying the bills.

Nice Dreamz LLC is the umbrella on top. AirGap AI is the showcase: what a full private-AI build looks like for the kind of firm that can't put its data into a cloud chatbot. It's a capability I maintain, not a product I'm pushing. The three-node mesh is the demo: it's been my daily
