I migrated my local personal agents running on my Mac mini to the cloud yesterday, building on Cloudflare Durable Objects, Fly Sprites, browser-use, Baseten GLM-5.3, Parallel, pi harness, and more. I moved over from Instinct->Grok->Muse->self-hosted

I’ve been fascinated by the evolution of agent UX—from IDEs to CLIs to ADEs. But agents are still trapped inside individual windows. What if you could unleash them across your entire desktop, speak to them, and draw for them, for your everyday work?

I built a semantic layer startup, implemented one at Stripe, and helped a Series A startup migrate to one, across three generations: one before LLMs, with LLMs, and with agents.

I left Stripe a few weeks ago to ask "What If ...?". I'll be vibing fulltime over the new few months and documenting the journey. Subscribe here: tomkit08.substack.com/p/what…
