Am I misreading your docs that Tasker actually does not support running local, and in fact requires using either a Google, Anthropic, or OpenAI service?

- Nice idea - unfortunately I didn't manage to get it running on my MacBook Pro (Late 2013).
I'm on Big Sur 11.7.10, which I know is pretty old at this point. The app launches, but it only shows an empty window.
I was also a bit concerned about privacy while running it :)

- This looks great.
One thing I’ve been bitten by with desktop agents is execution-time safety:
the plan is correct, but a single malformed path or OS call causes real damage.
Do you enforce any guardrails at the tool boundary
(e.g. path sandboxing, network allowlists, dry-run / replay)?
Curious how you’re thinking about this.

- We ran into similar issues while building GTWY. Once agents can touch real systems, the main challenge becomes limiting what they’re allowed to do per step. Clear boundaries mattered more than adding more automation.

- I want this but it runs in its own session- like screen or terminal server- so i can keep using the computer and just check in on the automation from time to time.
- Not to be confused with Tasker for Android:

- HN hug of death? Can't open the site
- How on earth did you manage to get this far before learning of the Android app by the same name? You can't call this Tasker.
Are you willing to expand more on the meltdown? Coming to terms with being a grown up? Did your marriage survive?
