My Daily Driver Setup
I do not own a laptop. Everything runs from a Samsung A05 through Termux.
Hardware
- Samsung A05 — Android phone, Termux installed via F-Droid
- No desktop or laptop — the phone is the computer
Core Stack
- Termux — Linux terminal emulator, the foundation of everything
- proot-distro — runs a full Debian environment without root
- uv — Python package management with UV_LINK_MODE=copy
- Git + SSH — version control and GitHub access
- loguru — structured logging across all my Python tools
What I Run
- Hermes Agent — personal AI agent with WebUI and Telegram bot
- OpenRouter — LLM routing through free API tiers
- ngx-portfolio — CLI + MCP server for tracking my NGX stock portfolio
- movies-cli — CLI for scraping, downloading, and managing my movie library
- Cron jobs — daily backups, price refreshes, document organization
- Python — all tooling, scripts, and automation
Software I Use
- Termux — Linux environment
- Acode — code editor
- Via — lightweight browser
Principles
- Zero-cost: free API tiers only
- Phone-first: everything runs on Android
- Private: self-hosted, private repos, no cloud dependency for core services
- Minimal: every package justified, every service monitored
