Skynet AI

Local-first autonomous operations

Skynet runs and verifies browser workflows before declaring them complete.

Built for teams that need AI to operate real tools while preserving the executor, artifact, and receipt behind every completion claim.

Four tools you can run today.

Four MIT-licensed projects with reproducible ways to run or verify them: direct Chrome control, a Firefox WebDriver BiDi adapter with CDP-like ergonomics, file blast-radius analysis, and the Skynet Desktop app. Download-link clicks are shown as recorded site events, not completed-install claims.

Skynet Chrome CDP

Attach to the Chrome you are already signed into. Structural page perception, explicit tab ownership, and a benchmark that states its fixture.

  • Run: python standalone_benchmark.py --port 9222
  • 85 tests · zero dependencies · 0.33 ms p50 (n=200)

Skynet Firefox CDP

Drive a real visible Firefox with CDP-like Tab ergonomics mapped onto modern Firefox WebDriver BiDi. Modern Firefox removed the classic CDP /json endpoints.

  • Run: python firefox_bidi_worker.py --selftest --json
  • MIT · WebDriver BiDi · live-verified on Firefox Developer Edition 153

Skynet AI File Blast Radius

Before you edit a file: what else breaks, how far it cascades, and which of it no test reaches. Eleven direct importers can hide 366 transitive dependents.

  • Run: blast-radius src/core/protocol.py --gate
  • 98 tests · zero dependencies · formula disclosed

Skynet Desktop

One Windows app for the Claude, Codex and Gemini command-line agents you already use. It reuses their existing sign-ins; there are no API keys to paste.

  • MIT · v0.1.2 · 99,747,603-byte installer

Chrome ships breaking changes monthly and these keep pace with it. If they save you an afternoon: sponsor the work — sponsorship, not equity or investment.

Verified evidence

A completion claim has a fixed evidence shape.

These are operating requirements, not article-volume or engagement claims.

  • Risk classifiedThe reason for review is visible.
  • Executor namedThe acting lane is recorded.
  • Artifact persistedThe output exists beyond the tool call.
  • Receipt checkedAn independent signal closes the run.

One live workflow

The proof boundary is part of the product.

A real publishing canary shows how Skynet separates intent, execution, and verification instead of treating a successful tool response as the finish line.

Review Experimental

Broader self-improving routing across changing provider and application surfaces.

Blocked Not accepted

Proof-free completion claims, silent provider substitution, or missing live artifacts.

Proof-backed case studies

Three systems. Each one opens to evidence.

The strongest demonstrations replace a catalogue of claims: local machine learning, visual desktop control, and verified publishing.

Placement verified

Unsupported-GPU machine learning with a truth gate

The run verified model placement on the local AMD device, compared the measured path with the CPU, and withheld forecasts when validation was incomplete.

Claim
Device placement was observed
Evidence
Benchmark and withheld-output record

ScreenMemory perception-to-action

The visual control stack combines targeted screen capture, structural automation, semantic navigation, and compressed accessibility context.

Claim
Visual control improved through layered perception

Live output

Publishing that verifies after publish

AI WP Manager is one implementation inside Skynet: the workflow checks the live URL, archive membership, preview image, and signature after WordPress returns success.

Claim
A tool response is not completion
Evidence
Live page and independent receipt

Economics and investment case

Move review effort from reconstruction to inspection.

Skynet is designed to make the operational record a by-product of the run. The economic wedge is a reusable control plane, not an unsupported promise about price or speed.

Manual handoff chain

Evidence is reconstructed later.

  • Tool success becomes an assumption
  • Context fragments across reviewers
  • Failures are expensive to reproduce
  • Accountability lives in chat history
Skynet operating model

Evidence travels with the work.

  • Risk and executor are explicit
  • Artifacts persist outside the model
  • Receipts make failures inspectable
  • Recovery becomes reusable memory
