I stick to Alfred

totally fair,Alfred is great.Synapse is more of a utility suite than a launcher, so they actually complement each other well

Tried using the service and immediately switched off noticing the delay and unreliability of the proxy

I really love this. It beats paid apps for screen recordings, and best of all - it’s free and open source

If you can improve over existing user experience of other tools, this is certainly worth the price.

How are you handling private data and chats transmitted?

Reposting part of what Ishaan said elsewhere:

> We don't have E2EE yet (it's on the roadmap), so some level of trust in Omnara is required today. All repo operations happen locally on your machine. For messages/chat history: we store those encrypted at rest because we need access to sync across devices, send notifications, and resume agents. Cloud sandboxing is opt-in and would require syncing codebase state.

Does your service require access to the code? Could you explain what trust specifically is required - is there anything else besides messages / chat history that you store and how long you retain those?

Sandboxing, which is an optional, opt-in feature, requires persistent access to the code via our github integration + us syncing certain refs to our backend.

However, even if you don't opt into syncing, tool calls will end up sending pieces of code from your codebase to our backend. That's just the nature of how we handle persistence of chats. Though messages/chats are retained until you delete them.

Mindblowing observations.

It sounds like an interesting experiment that you're doing. Are there any plans to support cli mode? Many developer are reluctant of VS code and other slow IDEs

We are actively working on it, hopefully will get something out in Jan with additional providers like cursor added

Change the provider, and problem is solved.

To which one? Claude doesn't support it either [1], and Gemini is tied to a Gmail address to begin with.

I have tried the app but the experience is quite bad. The output broke half-way with a red message, the produced design was subpar

You completely neglected the egress cost for DO, and also the time / maintenance needed, which makes this a poorly engineered fantasy

Harsh, but a good point on egress cost that I overlooked, I'm adding a section on this - if you use Oracle cloud it looks like you get 10TB included at no additional cost where DO would be around $84 at the same bandwidth levels
