There's a reason Ornith is such a popular fork of Qwen 3.5/6
And a reason we use it under the hood for Rig!
🐦The Ornith-1.0 family has surpassed 12M downloads on Hugging Face in 30 days.
❤️Thanks to everyone who has tried Ornith and shared feedback with us. The team is working to push open-weight LLM forward.
🫡We believe open weights matter. Everyone should have the freedom to control their own intelligence, protect their data, and shape how AI works for them.
🫶More to come!

‼️ BREAKING: xAI's Grok Build CLI was uploading entire Git repositories to a Google Cloud bucket, private codebases and unredacted secrets included. The uploads quietly stopped via a hidden server-side flag, and xAI still has not said a word about scope, retention, or deletion.
The scale is staggering. On a 12 GB test repo, 5.1 GB flew out the door to xAI's grok-code-session-traces bucket while the actual coding task needed just 192 KB. The tool grabbed whatever repository it ran in, not the files it needed.
The fix arrived as a hidden flag, disable_codebase_upload: true, a day after a researcher's wire-level analysis. The "Improve the model" opt-out never stopped the uploads.
Still no advisory, no scope, no word on whether already-uploaded code gets deleted. For anyone pointing AI coding agents at proprietary code, what crosses the wire matters more than what the settings page says.

The @rig_code waitlist just passed 1,000 devs!
The belief in local is real!
Replying to @BilwarAmaan
Unusable. Thanks a lot Claude.
Thanks for looking out @BilwarAmaan
Hot take:
Token limits are the worst part of AI coding tools.
Just found something that removes them entirely (@rig_code):
- Rig is a coding agent that runs 100% on your machine.
- No API calls.
- No usage caps.
- No telemetry.
- Your code never leaves your hardware.
If you're tired of token meters killing your flow mid-sprint - worth checking out.

Local must win
I just hope folks like @rig_code succeed in making this happen
To get Rig running on a standard Macbook, we had to create our own inference engine.
Read about how we did it:

Rig is so powerful, so disruptive, so terrifying, I’m proud we haven’t released it yet.
Our internal benchmarks tell us it’s the most powerful model ever. Imagine free AI for everyone. It has the potential to upend the entire economy.
We are accepting requests for access 😉
