Score: 6.3/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 8, Documentation: 3, Utility: 5)

Libargus is a low-latency local LLM runner that uses Project Panama (FFM API in Java 22) to directly interface with llama.cpp, whisper.cpp, and ggml, avoiding REST sidecar overhead. It features zero-allocation hot paths and pre-bundled native binaries, and serves as the foundation for a spatio-temporal memory layer to replace RAGs.
