First-party apps

Apps built into Genesi

Every one of these is a native package, themed and shipped with the OS — no hunting the AUR, no setup.

AI & Inference

2
stable

AI Mode

genesi-ai-mode

A systemd daemon (genesi-aid) that watches for local AI workloads — Ollama, llama.cpp, vLLM, LocalAI — and retunes the whole machine for inference: CPU governor to performance, transparent huge pages, lower swappiness, raised scheduling priority pinned to physical performance cores, and I/O readahead tuned for large GGUF files. The moment inference stops, every change is reverted so your compiler gets the resources back.

  • 15–25% faster CPU inference
  • Plasma 6 widget + Monitor app
  • Live tokens/s readout
  • Fully automatic & reversible
sudo pacman -S genesi-ai-mode
