Streisand
Streisand sets up a new server running your choice
Streisand is a tool that automates the deployment of censorship-resistant VPN services on cloud servers. It was created to help users bypass internet censorship and surveillance by quickly setting up secure communication channels without needing deep system administration expertise. With just a cloud provider account and basic Unix command-line knowledge, Streisand can provision a server and configure multiple VPN and proxy protocols almost automatically. This includes OpenVPN, WireGuard, Shadowsocks, OpenConnect, and Tor bridges, often with optional add-ons like obfuscation or stunnel to resist throttling and detection. The result is a private website that hosts client software downloads and setup instructions for easy access. Streisand supports major cloud providers like AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Linode, DigitalOcean, and Rackspace, while also offering installation options for advanced users with their own servers. -

ADB Sync
Synchronize files between a PC and Android device using ADB
adb-sync is a command-line utility designed to synchronize files between a PC and an Android device over the Android Debug Bridge (ADB). It simplifies the process of transferring and mirroring directories without requiring root access or complex configuration. By comparing file states between the host and the device, adb-sync efficiently updates only changed files, reducing transfer time and bandwidth usage. The tool also supports reverse synchronization, allowing users to copy data from an Android device back to their PC. While this project has been deprecated in favor of better-adb-sync, it remains a lightweight and effective option for managing file transfers and backups over USB debugging connections. -

CogVideo
text and image to video generation: CogVideoX (2024) and CogVideo
CogVideo is an open source text-/image-/video-to-video generation project that hosts the CogVideoX family of diffusion-transformer models and end-to-end tooling. The repo includes SAT and Diffusers implementations, turnkey demos, and fine-tuning pipelines (including LoRA) designed to run across a wide range of NVIDIA GPUs, from desktop cards (e.g., RTX 3060) to data-center hardware (A100/H100). Current releases cover CogVideoX-2B, CogVideoX-5B, and the upgraded CogVideoX1.5-5B variants, plus image-to-video (I2V) models, with options for BF16/FP16/FP32—and INT8 quantized inference via TorchAO for memory-constrained setups. The codebase emphasizes practical deployment: prompt-optimization utilities (LLM-assisted long-prompt expansion), Colab notebooks, a Gradio web app, and multiple performance knobs (tiling/slicing, CPU offload, torch.compile, multi-GPU, and FA3 backends via partner projects). -

alphageometry
AI-driven neuro-symbolic solver for high-school geometry problems
AlphaGeometry, developed by Google DeepMind, is a theorem-proving system that combines symbolic reasoning with deep learning to solve challenging geometry problems, such as those found in mathematical Olympiads. The repository provides the full implementation of DDAR (Deductive Difference and Abductive Reasoning) and AlphaGeometry, two automated geometry solvers described in the 2024 Nature paper “Solving Olympiad Geometry without Human Demonstrations.” AlphaGeometry integrates a symbolic deduction engine with a transformer-based language model to propose and validate geometric constructions in a stepwise proof process. The DDAR solver focuses purely on rule-based reasoning, while AlphaGeometry enhances this by using a learned model to suggest auxiliary constructions when logical reasoning alone is insufficient. The repository includes pre-trained weights, vocabulary files, and detailed configuration options for reproducing experiments. -

CodeGeeX2
CodeGeeX2: A More Powerful Multilingual Code Generation Model
CodeGeeX2 is the second-generation multilingual code generation model from ZhipuAI, built upon the ChatGLM2-6B architecture and trained on 600B code tokens. Compared to the first generation, it delivers a significant boost in programming ability across multiple languages, outperforming even larger models like StarCoder-15B in some benchmarks despite having only 6B parameters. The model excels at code generation, translation, summarization, debugging, and comment generation, and it supports over 100 programming languages. With improved inference efficiency, quantization options, and multi-query/flash attention, CodeGeeX2 achieves faster generation speeds and lightweight deployment, requiring as little as 6GB GPU memory at INT4 precision. Its backend powers the CodeGeeX IDE plugins for VS Code, JetBrains, and other editors, offering developers interactive AI assistance with features like infilling and cross-file completion.
