RCLI

What it does

A complete on-device voice pipeline for Apple Silicon — speech recognition, model, text-to-speech and vision — driving forty macOS actions by voice, answering questions over your local documents and reading the screen or camera, at sub-200ms latency with no API keys involved. Note that the GPU engine underneath is proprietary, so "open source" describes the wrapper rather than the whole stack. MIT.

Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.

RCLI FAQ

Is RCLI free?

Yes. It runs on your own machine, so there is no usage-based cost either.

Do I need to install anything or write code to use RCLI?

It needs the command line. If you are not comfortable typing commands, expect to get stuck during setup.

Does RCLI work on a phone?

No. It needs a computer.

Can I use RCLI commercially?

The licence is MIT, which permits commercial use. Conditions such as keeping the copyright notice still apply, so read the licence text before shipping it inside something.
