I built a desktop AI agent that my 60+ year old mom can use, .exe/.dmg, Ollama support, 300MB idle RAM

Generative AI
Spent 2 hours fighting Docker and Terminal commands to get a local AI agent running. It ate all my RAM and I had a realization: my wife, my non-technical clients, my mom, my 6-year-old son, none of them could ever set this up. If I deployed something like this I'd spend my life doing setup-. I've been vibecoding with LLMs for about 2 years (I'm a designer, not a developer). Decided to turn an old failed Laravel SaaS of mine into a native Electron desktop app to solve this setup hell. The goal: an autonomous AI agent that installs like a normal app. exe for Windows,.dmg for Mac.
