Aoi

A native Swift and AppKit application. She lives in the empty corners left and right of the Dock, walks, climbs the Dock, splats into walls, plays tennis and tic-tac-toe, speaks with a local voice and thinks with a local model through ollama.

What is inside

• All 40 animations are drawn by a parametric pixel-art generator: a skeleton with angles at hips, knees, shoulders and elbows, automatic shading, inner contours between layers, and squash/stretch. Not one hand-drawn frame
• Third-party sprite sheet import: a ZIP exactly as downloaded, a folder or a single PNG. Multi-row sheets, auto-assignment by filename, normalisation by figure height — someone else’s set will not make her twice as tall
• Local speech synthesis and a local model through ollama: the app runs entirely offline with no API key at all
• Two built-in games — physics tennis and tic-tac-toe — and a visual effects system
• Lives in the menu bar with no Dock icon; screen geometry is computed for multi-monitor setups
