As someone with ADHD, depression and on the autism spectrum, I get in my head A LOT.
Every time I run into an issue I create a tool for it.
- I should post on Hacker News, but my app is not good enough > challenge my inner critic.
- I want to binge eat instead of working > use the catch the urge feature and follow a strategy
- Task is too overwhelming > task breakdown and copy the tasks to my notepad
- I really don't want to get started on a task > procrastination solver
Would love your feedback and any questions are welcome :)
I really like what you shared and added your idea to my feedback forum: https://neurotools.featurebase.app/p/new-tool-reality-check
This is the best I could find:
"Some NeuroTools features use Google's Gemini AI service. To make these work, we send the relevant input from the app to the Google Gemini API."
I would love to play around with it, but local-only is a must for me.
On that note, would you agree that in principle it should be possible to run this with a local LLM?
And yes, this can definitely work with a local LLM, and there's a high chance I will do that next. I've created a local LLM open-source Mac app last year (paid, but open source, so you could just compile it yourself), you can find it on my profile, so it's definitely something I am very interested in! I wanted to try to tap a broader audience this time so did not release it with a local LLM feature. But very high chance it'll come next!
For example when I add the major task "Pannekoek bakken" ("Baking a pancake" in Dutch) and break it down into subtasks Goblin breaks down the task in Dutch.
OP's tool does realize what I want to do but responds in English which could be a bit of a problem for people who are not that foreign language savvy.
