What is Tars?
An autonomous intelligence layer for your personal infrastructure.
Tars is an Autonomous AI Worker designed to run on your local hardware. Unlike cloud-based assistants, Tars operates directly on your machine, giving it the ability to execute commands, manage files, and orchestrate tasks within your own network.
Control via Discord
Tars uses Discord as its primary interface. This provides a secure, cross-platform command center that works on your desktop and mobile devices without requiring complex VPNs or web portals.
Local-First Intelligence
Powered by Google Gemini, Tars bridges the gap between high-level reasoning and low-level system execution:
- Native Execution: Tars can run bash commands, script workflows, and manage system resources directly.
- Background Autonomy: It doesn’t wait for your prompt. Tars runs on a continuous heartbeat to execute scheduled tasks and monitor system health.
- Episodic Memory: Every interaction and decision is stored locally, allowing Tars to learn your preferences and improve over time.
Why Tars?
Cloud assistants are sandboxed. Tars is integrated. By running locally, Tars has the context of your files, your tools, and your network, enabling a level of automation that cloud APIs cannot reach.
