Pixel - AI Desktop Companion

A Quick Note from the Developer: Hey everyone! I want to be super transparent—Project Pixel is my very first software build. I am a solo developer, and I built this out of a passion for coding, AI, and bringing my own art to life. It has been a massive learning experience figuring out how to get local LLMs, voice engines, and custom sprite animations to all play nice together. Since I am still new to this, there might be a few quirks here and there, but I have put a lot of heart and late nights into making her as stable and fun as possible. Thank you so much for checking out my first project!

Meet Pixel: Your Adaptive Desktop Companion. Pixel isn't just a virtual pet; she is a highly adaptive, interactive AI companion built to live directly on your monitor. She watches your system telemetry, learns your interests, and provides witty, conversational support while you work, game, or code.

Features:

• Fully Interactive: Powered by local LLM technology (Ollama) and the Kokoro voice engine for real-time, spoken conversations.
• Adaptive Personality: A First-Run Setup wizard customizes her vibe. She learns your name, age, and hobbies to personalize how she talks to you.
• Alive on your Screen: Features a fully animated sprite system. She reacts to what she's doing—whether she is thinking, listening to your microphone, or taking a snooze.
• Hardware Aware: She passively reads your system telemetry (CPU, RAM, and GPU stats) and can let you know how your rig is holding up if you ask her.
