It’s called World Monitor<\/strong> \u2014 AI-powered news aggregation, geopolitical monitoring, and infrastructure tracking in one situational awareness interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Think a Palantir-style ops screen, except it’s AGPL-licensed and sitting on GitHub with 73.9k stars<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What it does<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

500+ curated news feeds synthesized into briefs by AI. A 3D globe with 56 map layers. Live markets across 29 stock exchanges. And a Country Instability Index that stress-scores 31 countries in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can run the AI side entirely locally with Ollama \u2014 no API keys<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setup is genuinely four lines: clone, install, run, open localhost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
$ terminal<\/div>\n
git clone https:\/\/github.com\/koala73\/worldmonitor<\/div>\n
cd worldmonitor && npm install<\/div>\n
npm run dev<\/div>\n
# open http:\/\/localhost:5173<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why I’m actually showing you this<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It’s not the dashboard. It’s how it’s built for agents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s an MCP server<\/strong>, a REST API<\/strong>, a CLI<\/strong>, and SDKs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So you can plug it into Claude or ChatGPT, ask “what’s destabilizing supply chains this week?”<\/em> \u2014 and get an answer backed by live data, not training data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your own intelligence agency, running on a laptop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
