MyLocalAI – Enhanced local AI chat interface

Hacker News

I built a local AI chat interface that I'm planning to enhance with capabilities like web search and file processing. Demo: https://youtu.be/g14zgT6INoA This was my first real project (mostly vibe coded while learning), but it's functional and I'm excited about the roadmap. The goal is to create a more capable local AI experience that goes beyond basic chat. Current: Clean local AI interface, complete privacy, self-hosted Planned: Internet search integration, file upload/processing, custom tools Built with Node.js. Completely open source. Looking for feedback and feature suggestions from the community! GitHub: https://github.com/mylocalaichat/mylocalai
