* refactor(voice): wrap CancellationToken in Mutex for restart support The VoiceServer singleton uses OnceCell so it can't be recreated. CancellationToken is one-shot — once cancelled, stays cancelled. Wrapping it in std::sync::Mutex + adding fresh_cancel() allows stop() then run() to work within the same process (logout → re-login). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(screen_intelligence): wrap CancellationToken in Mutex for restart support Same pattern as voice server — enables stop() then run() within the same process for logout → re-login cycles. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(credentials): add start/stop helpers for login-gated services Add start_login_gated_services() and stop_login_gated_services() to credentials/ops.rs. Wire start into store_session() (after login) and stop into clear_session() (on logout) so voice, autocomplete, screen intelligence, and local AI are properly managed around auth lifecycle. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(core): defer service startup behind login gate in jsonrpc.rs Replace the unconditional service startup block with a login check. If active_user.toml exists, start services immediately via the new start_login_gated_services() helper. Otherwise defer until the login handler triggers it. Autocomplete shutdown hook remains unconditional. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(screen_intelligence): wait for Stopped state in stop() to prevent restart race stop() now polls until the run-loop sets ServerState::Stopped (5s timeout). Prevents fast logout→login from seeing stale Idle/Running state and skipping the restart. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(dictation): add stop() to prevent listener accumulation across re-logins Store the spawned task JoinHandle and abort it on stop(). Prevents duplicate rdev hotkey listeners from stacking across logout→login cycles. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(credentials): call dictation_listener::stop() on logout Wire the new dictation stop into stop_login_gated_services() so the hotkey forwarder task is aborted when the user logs out.

What is OpenHuman?
OpenHuman is an open-source agentic assistant that is designed to integrate with you in your daily life. Here's what makes OpenHuman special:
-
Simple, UI-first — A clean desktop experience and short onboarding paths so you can go from install to a working agent in a few clicks, without a config-first setup. You don't need a terminal to run OpenHuman.
-
One subscription, many providers — You only need one account to get access to many agentic APIs (AI Models, Search, Webhooks/Tunnels and other 3rd party APIs etc..), simplifying the experience to get a powerful agent going.
-
Rich Skills — Plug into Gmail, Slack, Notion, and the rest of your stack via rich, feature-backed skills. Connections are typically one click through setup wizards instead of wiring APIs by hand. Workflow data is kept on device, encrypted locally, and treated as yours: encryption and sensitive context stay on your machine. Webhooks give instant feedback into the agent when external systems or skills emit events, so the loop stays tight without constant polling.
-
Local knowledge base — Built from your data and your activity. How you work across tools, sessions, and connected services—so the agent gets rich, workflow-aware context, not a one-off chat transcript. Everything is stored on your machine and compounding over time without becoming a cloud dossier. Channels, skills and ongoing conversations feed the same loop so day-to-day context does not reset every session.
-
Local AI model — The Rust core exposes local AI paths (and the desktop bundle can ship local/bundled runners where applicable) for the workloads above—vision snippets, speech helpers, summarization, tooling—so sensitive steps can stay off the cloud when you choose.
-
Deep desktop integrations — OpenHuman is a native desktop assistant, not a web-only chat: memory-aware keyboard autocomplete, voice (STT listening and TTS replies), screen intelligence that understands what is on screen and feeds your local context, plus windowing and OS-level permissions—so the agent meets you on the machine, not trapped in a browser tab.

OpenHuman vs other agents
High-level comparison (products evolve—verify against each vendor). OpenHuman is built to minimize vendor sprawl, keep workflow knowledge on-device, and ship deep desktop features—not only chat.
