The open voice shell for your desktop and your AI agents.

Always listening, no wake word, any model, runs on your own machine.

See it work

90-second demo, hands off the keyboard.

A cheap gatekeeper model listens continuously and filters ambient speech, deciding whether you were talking to Tusk at all.

A capable agent acts through MCP tools on your real desktop: apps, windows, typing, dictation, pair-coding in your own editor.

Swap models by voice, mid-session, and plug in other agents as the backend.

Developers with RSI or motor impairments who need to work without typing all day.

Keyboard-optional developers pairing with AI coding agents who'd rather keep their hands off the keyboard.

Linux + GNOME/X11 today.

git clone https://github.com/vovka/tusk.git

Requires Docker and a Groq API key. Full setup, configuration, and troubleshooting in the README.

Bootstrapped, pre-seed, working prototype, no external funding. Apache-2.0. Built by one developer in Ukraine.

Known gaps: Linux/X11 only, no destructive-action confirmation yet.
