Buildermark is an open-source, local-first desktop app that measures AI contribution across your codebase by matching agent diffs to commits. It supports Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, and Cursor, producing a breakdown of which files, functions, and commits involved AI generation — all without sending code to external servers. A browser extension handles import from cloud-based agents, and a Team Server edition for org-level aggregation is planned as a paid self-hosted offering. The tool surfaces metrics like percentage of total lines AI-generated, AI contribution by file type, trend over time, and breakdown by agent (which AI wrote what). For solo developers it's a personal diagnostic; for teams, it becomes a code quality signal — sections with high AI contribution may warrant extra scrutiny in review. Buildermark taps into a growing enterprise need: as AI-generated code becomes the norm, teams, auditors, and compliance officers want provenance data — both for quality assurance and for emerging legal questions around IP ownership of AI-generated work. GitHub doesn't expose this natively, and most agent tools don't track it. Buildermark fills that gap with a zero-cloud approach that enterprise legal teams can actually approve.

Craft Agents OSS is a free, Apache-licensed desktop app and CLI framework for building and running AI agents against real-world workflows. Built by the team behind the Craft.do document editor, it connects to 32+ integrations out of the box — MCP servers, REST APIs, Google Workspace, Slack, GitHub, and local filesystems — with no manual configuration required. It supports Anthropic, OpenAI, Google AI, and any OpenAI-compatible backend in a single unified UI. The core idea is an "agent canvas" where users drag tools onto a timeline, set up triggers, and watch agents execute multi-step workflows in real time. It also ships a headless server mode, making it usable as a remote agent runner in CI/CD pipelines or staging environments. The project hit 4,200+ stars on GitHub within 24 hours of launch. What distinguishes Craft Agents from similar tools like Dify or n8n is its desktop-first UX and tight integration with Claude's computer-use and agent loop capabilities. The Craft team has deep product experience — this isn't a weekend hack but a polished tool with well-documented agent primitives, error handling, and rate limiting built in from day one.
Reviewer scorecard
“Unified attribution across Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, and Cursor simultaneously gives me something no single agent tool provides. Commit-level AI attribution is genuinely useful before merging — I want to know if a section is heavily AI-generated so I can give it proportionally more review attention.”
“This is the missing middle layer between raw SDK calls and fully managed platforms. 32 integrations with zero config and a headless mode means you can drop it into an existing workflow in under an hour. Apache 2.0 license is the cherry on top.”
“Most AI-assisted code is human-modified before commit, creating a false dichotomy between 'AI-written' and 'human-written.' The legal question of IP ownership for AI-generated code is also unresolved, so Buildermark's framing could create more confusion than clarity for compliance teams. Wait for the enterprise edition.”
“The 4k stars in 24 hours is impressive but hype-fueled. We've seen a dozen 'universal agent frameworks' launch in the last year — most get abandoned once the novelty wears off. Wait to see if the integration library is actively maintained before betting your workflows on it.”
“In 18 months, enterprise procurement will ask for AI contribution reports the same way they ask for test coverage reports. Getting a baseline now builds the historical data that future audits will require — and Buildermark's zero-cloud architecture means early adopters won't have to migrate when compliance requirements arrive.”
“Desktop-native agent runners are the 2026 equivalent of the browser as the universal platform. The Craft team's product pedigree and the open-source architecture mean this could become the go-to scaffolding for agent apps the way Electron became the default for desktop apps.”
“Having a dashboard that shows my AI usage patterns across projects would genuinely change how I think about skill development. Am I outsourcing the hard parts? Am I improving? Buildermark is the mirror I didn't know I needed — and the fact that it's free and local means there's no reason not to try it.”
“Finally, an agent tool designed by people who actually care about UX. The drag-and-drop canvas is the first agent builder I've used that didn't feel like configuring XML. Non-engineers on my team were running their own agents in about 20 minutes.”
