Coco: Open-Source Desktop Co-Assistant That Watches Your Context and Steps In Proactively

EchoShao8899 · x · 2026-08-21

Coco (collaborative-agents/coco on GitHub) is an open-source proactive co-assistant that runs fully locally as a lightweight desktop app.

It inverts the usual burden of working with AI: instead of you noticing when AI could help, knowing what to ask, and supplying all the context, Coco quietly senses your computer-use context and steps in—a nudge when you're stuck, a better AI tool to delegate to, or a hint to learn something yourself. It proactively identifies repetitive work and generates ready-to-send prompts for one-shot delegation, and accumulates intent signals across your browsing, reading, and editing history.
