A curated list of autonomous improvement loops, research agents, and autoresearch-style systems inspired by Karpathy's autoresearch.
The Karpathy treatment for OpenClaw - stripped to ε. 515 lines of Python, 6 files, one dependency.
Hermes port of Karpathy-inspired LLM coding guidelines — SKILL.md + examples.
This is my implementation of Karpathy's LLM Wiki. A key highlight is the use of agent skills to enforce workflow rigidity and mitigate agent behavioral deviation.
Personalized Multimodal AI Agent via Google ADK & Gemini. Featuring Realtime Soniox STT, Long-term Memory (mem0), and LLM-generated Wiki Knowledge Base (inspired by Karpathy)
Fully local LLM Wiki : Karpathy's knowledge base pattern with Gemma 4, Unsloth Dynamic, and TurboQuant KV cache. Zero dependencies. Runs on a MacBook.
Agent-native knowledge OS built on Markdown. A shared vault for AI agents and humans, backed by a typed knowledge graph, full-text search, and an LLM-powered compiler, all accessible through MCP. Drop files in, let agents read, write, search, link, and compile knowledge. No database required.
Let LLMs compile scattered knowledge into an ever-growing encyclopedia — just like a human expert would. Modified version of Andrej Kaparthy's LLM-Wiki knowledge base
The local system that remembers your projects, maintains itself, and is ready in 5 minutes. But, most of all, a Second Brain that doesn't become a Second Job.
Everyone is building AI second-brains. Some are self-hostable, some are cloud-based. But, which one is actually worth your time & costs?
PT/OS Workspace: Your personal AI operating system. An AI-managed collection of portable files for projects, priorities, preferences, and workflows. Built around you.
a viral set of behavioral guidelines popularized by AI researcher Andrej Karpathy to fix the common bad habits of AI coding agents 🌟 Star if you like it! 🌟
A GPT built from scratch, in pure Python. Meet UnoGPT , a small , self-built language model designed to understand conversations and solve everyday arithmetic.
Bio-Autoresearch: Karpathy-Style Autoresearch for Rare Disease Drug Discovery
AI memory-compiler for Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and Cursor — auto-captures conversations, extracts knowledge, builds a searchable Obsidian-compatible wiki inspired by Karpathy's LLM Knowledge Base
A portable, single-document AI memory and context system. Works across AI assistants without specialized tools. No coding, or Obsidian necessary! As simple as it gets.
llm-wiki designed for developers and builders focused on projects building phases. Helps both the agent and builder to stay on track.
A Claude skill that pressure-tests decisions through independent AI advisors with peer review. Based on Karpathy's LLM Council.
Automate Claude Code optimization using constraints, metrics, and autonomous iterations to drive continuous improvement in research workflows.
A local-first personal knowledge base built on Obsidian, with AI-assisted document ingestion, classification, summarisation, and synthesis.
