Give your Microduck a brain. Any LLM, one .duck file. 🦆🧠 quackd, pronounced “quacked”. The brain daemon Microduck was missing, named like its siblings robotd, mediad, padd and tofd.
Tell a small robot what you want in plain language. An AI uses the robot's existing skills to do it.
"Find the ball and kick it", in the bundled simulator, driven by the scripted pilot (no API key). Same verbs, same safety layer, same perception as a real model run. See docs/assets.
quackd connects a small robot with two legs, the Microduck from Pollen Robotics, to a large language model (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini or Grok). The robot already knows how to walk, turn, kick, scoop something off the floor, look around and quack. quackd is the missing layer that turns a request like "find the ball and kick it" into the right sequence of those skills, watches what happens, and keeps going until the job is done or it is clearly impossible.
You do not need a robot to try it. A bundled simulator runs on any laptop in seconds. Goals that work today, in that simulator:
"Find the ball and kick it." · "Patrol, and quack twice if you see someone." · "Follow the person." · "Fetch the ball" (experimental, because the scoop is unreliable on purpose)
Goals like "find my keys" or "pick up the trash" are where this is going, not what it does yet. The robot ships at Christmas 2026 and nothing here has run on real hardware. The honest label for today is LLM driven, goal directed control of a simulated robot: an early, working step toward a small robot you can simply talk to.
