Hi, I’m Luis Felipe Abarca, a Chilean artist, open-source contributor, and founder of Arca. I’m currently unemployed and bootstrapping Arca from a Mac mini M1. Even so, I’ve kept building and contributing. My work has landed across elizaOS, @openclaw, Crabbox, Hermes Agent, ClickClack, SlimeVR, and other open-source projects. It covers security, OAuth, cloud reliability, desktop infrastructure, testing, agent systems, and operator tooling. I also maintain and release open-source software through Arca, including ClawFix, Hypersnap Doctor, A3Stack, OrthoVoxel Studio, OpenChina, and tools for @farcaster_xyz builders. The work and public receipts are here: https://t.co/rudmR55XaN @alexocheema invited me to @localdotai, which is running a hardware referral competition. A new Mac mini would be a major upgrade from my M1. It would let me test larger local models, verify more open-source fixes without relying so much on paid cloud compute, and keep releasing useful tools for other builders. If you want to help, signing up is free: https://t.co/VvzOY8S8UZ Please complete a https://t.co/FseCoJfbXc name claim after signing up so the referral counts. Every valid claim and repost helps. ❤️
