Getting Started

How to download and run software from this site.

Downloading

Pick a project from the sidebar on the home page. Each project has a download button that links to the latest release zip. Downloads come from Cloudflare R2, so they should be fast wherever you are.

Each download also shows a SHA-256 checksum. If you want to verify the file wasn't corrupted in transit, open PowerShell in the folder where you saved the zip and run:

Get-FileHash filename.zip -Algorithm SHA256

The hash it prints should match the one on the site. If it doesn't, the file is corrupted and you should re-download it.

Running the software

Every app is portable. Put the extracted folder wherever you want: Desktop, Documents, a USB drive. Nothing gets written to the registry and no system files are modified.

Standard steps for every app:
1.Right-click the zip and click Extract All
2.Open the extracted folder
3.Double-click the .exe to run

If Windows shows a "Windows protected your PC" SmartScreen warning, click "More info" then "Run anyway". This comes up because the exes aren't code-signed. Signing costs money per year and I don't think it's worth it for free personal-use software. The apps are safe. See the FAQ for more on this.

Suit CC

Suit CC is a .NET 8 app with the runtime bundled in, so you don't need to install .NET. Extract the zip and run Suit CC.exe. On first launch it creates a config file in the same folder. Don't move the exe out of the folder or it won't find it.

There's a browser extension included in an extension folder inside the zip. To load it in Chrome or Edge: go to chrome://extensions, turn on Developer Mode in the top right, click Load Unpacked, and select the extension folder. Suit CC needs to be running for the extension to connect.

Gesture controls use your webcam. When you enable gesture control in the settings panel, it starts a separate process called gesture_bridge.exe. You can see it in Task Manager while it's running. It talks to the main app over a local socket and shuts down when you close Suit CC.

Oracle VII

Oracle VII needs Ollama installed and running before you start it. Download Ollama from ollama.com and install it. Then pull a model in a terminal, for example:

ollama pull llama3

If Ollama isn't already running in the background, start it with:

ollama serve

Then run OracleVII.exe and open your browser to http://localhost:5000. It connects to Ollama automatically. Everything stays on your machine. No data is sent anywhere.

If the interface loads but you see an error connecting to the model, check that Ollama is running and that you've pulled at least one model. You can switch between any models you've pulled from the sidebar in Oracle VII.

Network Transfer

Run network_transfer.exe on both computers. They need to be on the same local network or paired via Bluetooth. Pick whether you're sending or receiving, choose LAN or Bluetooth mode, and follow the prompts to connect. Once connected, you can queue multiple files and they'll transfer one by one.

Transfers are encrypted and verified with a checksum when they finish. If the checksum fails, the app will tell you and you can retry the transfer.

Voice Assistant GUI

Extract the zip and run VoiceAssistant.exe. The commands.yml file in the same folder is where all voice commands are defined. Open it in any text editor to add or change commands. Save the file and restart the app for changes to take effect.

You need a microphone for voice input. Speech recognition runs offline so you don't need an internet connection. Text-to-speech also runs offline via pyttsx3.

Each command in commands.yml has a trigger phrase, an action type (shell, python, or http), and the action details. You can use slots to extract values from what you say, for example "set timer for [minutes] minutes" passes the spoken number into the action.

Antivirus false positives

Python apps packaged with PyInstaller get flagged by antivirus scanners pretty regularly. It's not specific to this software. PyInstaller bundles everything into one exe in a way that looks similar to how some malware operates, so heuristic scanners flag it even when the code is completely clean.

If you see a warning and want to check independently, upload the file to VirusTotal (virustotal.com). If you see a small number of flags (say 3 to 8 out of 70+ engines) they're almost certainly heuristic false positives from the PyInstaller packaging, not actual detections of malicious code. If most engines flag it, don't run it and let me know via the contact page.

Each download on this site includes a SHA-256 checksum so you can verify the file is exactly what was uploaded here and hasn't been tampered with.
