What is sutando?
Sutando is a personal AI agent (called a "Stand" after JoJo's Bizarre Adventure) that runs entirely on your own Mac. It uses your existing CLI session as its reasoning engine, with a Node.js voice agent (Gemini Live) for real-time voice, a web dashboard, and optional bridges for Telegram, Discord, Slack, and phone calls via Twilio. You interact by voice in the browser, by phone, or via messaging apps. It can see your screen, join Zoom and Google Meet calls, make phone calls, automate browser tasks, and run an autonomous loop that improves its own code when idle. It syncs memory across multiple Macs via a private git repo. The project is in alpha, macOS-first with experimental Windows support. No pay-per-token API key is required for the core.
