Developer releases local LLM pipeline tracer 'opensmith'

Shivnath Tathe has developed "opensmith," a local-first tool designed to trace and debug LLM pipelines without sending data to the cloud.

The tool gained significant traction, with over 600 downloads in its first day, indicating a strong developer demand for privacy-focused, offline observability solutions in LLM application development.
