IRIS v0.2.0: Spatial desktop OS for autonomous agents with GitHub automation
viperttl · reddit · 2026-09-01
IRIS is a spatial desktop operating environment built with Rust (Tauri 2) and React 19, treating agents as first-class desktop objects rather than browser chat windows.
Key features in v0.2.0:
- GitHub Live Operations: Connect GitHub to let agents triage issues, open surgical PRs, automate SemVer releases, author changelogs, and trigger CI/CD builds.
- Dual-Tier AI: Run lightweight models (Qwen 2.5 Coder, GPT-4o-mini) for routine tasks, and "Takeover" with heavy reasoning models (Claude 3.7 Sonnet, DeepSeek R1) for complex errors.
- Floating HUD: Condenses into a translucent desktop widget showing system telemetry and agent thoughts.
- Security: Visual code diff approval and OS keyring storage for API keys.
Fully open-source (MIT), supporting local LLMs (Ollama/vLLM), cloud providers, and MCP tools.
