Events

What I went to,
what I am shipping.

A public calendar of conferences, releases, and launches that touch the work at Sarmalinux. Recaps are honest. Dates are real. If a release slips I update this page first.

AI Engineer World's Fair 2026

Three days of senior AI engineering practitioners walking through what works in production in mid-2026. The dominant themes were MCP as the universal skill protocol, multi-provider gateways as table stakes, voice loops reaching the sub-second budget on commodity hardware, evals as code gating CI, long-running agents on durable journals, and the quiet rise of local-first desktop assistants.

echo 0.1.0

echo is the open Jarvis. A personal AI assistant that runs on whichever AI subscription you already pay for. Voice loop, vision, persistent memory, translucent multi-monitor HUD, MCP skill bus. No API keys. No second bill. Brain router across Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Ollama and LM Studio. Cross-platform from one Rust core. MIT licensed. Public 0.1.0 lands 1 September 2026 with signed installers for all three operating systems and a working wiki.

slipstream v1.0.0 first major release

After eleven tagged releases in two months under Claude Code, slipstream reaches v1.0. A new React + Vite + d3 dashboard with nine routed views, an interactive code dependency graph, a cross-tab agent bus that lets multiple Claude Code tabs on one project coordinate at turn boundaries, a cold-start knowledge feed injected by SessionStart, a reproducible token-savings benchmark hitting ~95% per-read, dollar cost of tokens saved, a memory doctor, downloadable session reports, the insights band, the project knowledge brief, forceful per-turn steering and a 75-skill methodology library. 321 tests, CI green. Still 127.0.0.1 only, no telemetry.

slipstream + Echo + Sarmalink-AI rolling work

slipstream continues rolling: the next bets are a public benchmark page, a 60-second demo video, the homepage reframe and a skill marketplace scaffold. Echo public launch on 1 September. Sarmalink-AI keeps the multi-provider failover stories honest with new engines as providers ship. No marketing, just the work.
