kinhin: scale your Mac’s CI runners to your queue
kinhin watches your CI queue and, for each queued job, starts a fresh VM or container on your Apple silicon Mac, registers a one-job runner, and deletes it afterwards. Nothing idles and nothing is left over.
It works with GitHub Actions, GitLab CE, Gitea Actions and Forgejo Actions. Buildkite, Azure Pipelines and Bitbucket are planned for a later release.
The limits: Apple allows two macOS VMs at once on a Mac, whatever the hardware. Linux containers are not capped by that.
It’s still a beta. The beta 2 post lists what has been run for real and what hasn’t: https://kinhin.dev/blog/beta-2
Source and releases: https://github.com/RabinApps/kinhin. I’d especially like feedback from anyone running CI on Macs today.

LocalInbox: native Mac email where the AI never leaves your machine
Hi, I’m Manish. I kept switching between Apple Mail, web apps and other clients, but none of them felt right. Most were either slow web wrappers or they sent my mail to their servers so the AI features could work. I wanted something native, private and useful, so I built it myself.
LocalInbox exists because I wanted one inbox that stays on my Mac. It connects straight to Gmail, iCloud or any IMAP account. No LocalInbox account is needed and nothing goes through my servers.
What it does:
- Puts every account in one unified inbox
- Sorts mail as it arrives into To Reply, Updates, Promotions and categories you describe in plain words
- Shows phishing warnings that explain why a message looks suspicious
- Lets you search inside images and PDF attachments
- Runs summaries, reply drafts and Ask your mailbox with cited sources on your Mac using Apple’s model or your own Ollama or LM Studio setup
- Gives you Send Later, snooze and undo that keep working even when the app is closed
- Copies one time codes straight from notifications and strips tracking pixels
It solves the problem of jumping between accounts while still wanting smart features without handing your inbox to another company. You get the AI help, but everything stays on your machine.
New updates are already shipping and more are on the way.
Happy to answer questions.

myosOS - A standalone, lightweight x86_64 kernel built from scratch!
Hello everyone, I am a 14-year-old developer and I want to share my open-source hobby project: myosOS.It is a standalone, lightweight x86_64 kernel written entirely from scratch using LLVM Clang and LLD Linker. The build system is fully automated using GNU Make (make and make run via QEMU emulator mapping to standard VNC loops).Current features include a minimalist terminal layout with a "Type here:" prompt at the bottom of the screen. I am sharing this under the GNU GPLv3 license to invite the community to review the source code, optimize the kernel, and contribute to its future development.GitHub Repository:
