I built OpenHelm to fix this. It’s a local macOS app that turns your high-level goals into a self-running job queue, built directly on top of your existing Claude Code subscription.
Use it free
- Download it now: https://openhelm.ai/
- GitHub: https://github.com/maxbeech/openhelm
- Video: https://youtu.be/FfEBw1SCl7w
How it works
1. Set a goal, eg. "cold reach out to new leads", "grow my SEO", "audit my app weekly", "keep tests green")
2. OpenHelm puts together a plan combining one-off and recurring jobs to make it happen
3. Whenever a job fails, it will spot this, adjust, and try again
4. It will keep on top of the goal, auto-adjusting what jobs are run to actually achieve it
Key benefits
- Fair Source, on GitHub (free for teams under four people)
- Free to use (all LLM calls use your Claude Code subscription)
- Fully local
- Secure (any tokens/passwords stay in macOS Keychain unless you specify otherwise)
Happy to answer any questions!
