Great self-hosted alternative to Grok Bot
I’ve been using this app with a self-hosted dedicated Linux server as an alternative to Grok Bot and it’s been working really well. Devs are super responsive and open to feedback. Highly recommend!

About
Bloks turns AI agents into little colleagues that live on your Mac. This is their phone app.
Pair it with Bloks on your Mac by reading a six digit code off its screen. From then on, your agents are in your pocket: see what each one is working on, answer the question that is blocking one, approve or refuse the thing it wants to do, and watch a room of them work through a plan together.
Answers arrive as the thing itself rather than a wall of text: a chart, a checklist, a decision with its options laid out. When an agent needs you, your phone buzzes, and the answer is one tap away.
Your agents run on your Mac, with your own provider keys. The phone talks to your Mac directly, there is no account to create, and there are no analytics and no tracking in this app.
New here? The app opens with a sample workspace so you can feel how it works before connecting your own.
Bloks for Mac is free and open source: github.com/hamedgitty/bloks

What's New in Bloks
3.0.5
October 27, 2026
Notifications open what they are about, and a screenshot pastes straight into a message. • Tap any Bloks notification and it opens that conversation, in the right workspace and the right tab, whether Bloks was open or closed. • Paste a picture from the clipboard into the message box, or choose Paste Image under the plus. It goes with your message like a photo and is never saved to Photos. • Dictation keeps every sentence you say, not only the last one, along with anything you typed first. • Activity shows every agent under Today, by agent, with nothing cut off and no gap before the feed.
