Lariscus

Lariscus

Software for work that people and AI agents share.

Two open-source tools built on the same idea: your data stays in plain files you own, agents do the legwork, and you stay in charge of what actually changes.

Free and open source · Drey for Windows and Linux, dricket for Linux, macOS and Windows · GPL-3.0-or-later

Two products, one principle

Notes and tickets are the context. Agents are the hands. You are the gate.

Drey

A private, local-first Markdown note vault with live preview, daily notes, tasks, tags and search, plus an optional AI assistant that works on your notes through permissioned tools.

Discover Drey

dricket

A ticketing system with no server. Every ticket is a Markdown file in Git, and claiming one is a fast-forward push, so exactly one person or agent wins.

What we believe

Local-first

Your files, your machine

Notes are Markdown, tickets are Markdown. Open them in any editor, sync them any way you like, and leave whenever you want.

Agent-ready

Built for AI to work alongside you

Drey runs a local model or the provider you choose and speaks MCP. dricket gives agents a small, strict command line with exit codes they can rely on.

You decide

Permissions, not promises

Writes ask first unless you say otherwise, deletions are always confirmed, and everything that leaves your machine is opt-in.

Open

Source you can read

Both projects are published under the GPL. No accounts, no cloud service you have to trust.

About the name

Lariscus is the genus of Asian ground squirrels. A drey is a squirrel's nest: a tidy place where a small animal keeps everything it will need. That is the idea behind the tools.
