Building a Fully Local, System-Wide AI Agent CLI on Linux

on
Cloud-based agentic CLI tools are undeniably convenient, but sending internal terminal workflows, system commands, and proprietary files to third-party endpoints is a persistent privacy risk. Running a fully local, autonomous agent directly on your workstation eliminates subscription costs, avoids rate limits, and grants you unconstrained access across all your attached drives. This guide details how to pair Ollama with Open Interpreter on modern Linux (Ubuntu), resolve tricky runtime quirks like Python 3.14 native builds and removed modules, map persistent storage, and create a one-click desktop launcher. System Architecture The setup consists of two layers: Inference Engine (Ollama): Serves local open-weight models with hardware GPU acceleration. Agent Harness (Open Interpreter): Interprets natural language queries, writes code, and executes Bash or Python commands directly on your system. For agentic coding and file management, qwen2.5-coder:14b provides an optimal balance of c...

Root the Pixel 8 Pro

on

First, install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your PC.

Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking by going to about phone, then tap on 'build number' several times until you see a popup saying 'you are now a developer'


In developer options enable USB debugging and toggle the OEM unlock swith on

This is required for your device to be recognized by the PC in ADB mode and for unlocking the bootloader.

Unlocking the Bootloader: 

Get the Google USB driver 

Note: I find it easiest to reboot into fastboot, then install the USB driver.

Open a command prompt in the platform tools folder

Type - adb devices

allow ADB debugging in the popup window 

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flashing unlock

You'll see a screen with the option to unlock or lock the bootloader.

Press the volume button. From here you will be able to use the volume up and down buttons to move up to 'unlock'

Press the power button to confirm


This is a crucial step but be aware that it wipes all data from your device and could void its warranty.


Download the factory image for your device, extract it, and locate the `init_boot.img` file. 

Download the Magisk app, use it to patch the `init_boot.img` file.


Transfer it to your phone. 


It's easiest to go into developer options and enable the default usb configuration as it is in the screenshot. 

You'll also need to enable USB debugging again as the device was wiped


You can find the init_boot.img inside a zipped file located inside the factory image zip

Transfer the patched file to your PC. 

Copy as path the magisk patched image, then in the platform tools folder, using cmd type;

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash init_boot [path to magisk image]

fastboot reboot


Rooting can void your warranty and prevent certain apps like banking apps from working. It's recommended to proceed with caution and follow each step carefully
