What you can do with it

  • Chat with a persistent-memory AI assistant that uses about 90 built-in tools, including sandboxed code execution and Git-based coding help
  • Switch between local models (llama.cpp, Ollama, LM Studio) and cloud models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini) from a settings dropdown
  • Control the assistant remotely through Telegram or Discord and schedule background tasks

Make money with it

A freelancer could offer private, locally run AI assistant setups to clients who do not want their data sent to cloud services.

An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.

Ways a business could use it

  • Run a private in-house assistant for drafting, research and coding help without sending client data to a cloud service
  • Automate recurring tasks such as scheduled research or reports, using local models to avoid per-token fees

Can you use it commercially?

Free to use, change and sell, including in paid products. Keep the copyright notice.

Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.

Getting it running

It is a Python desktop app, and the README says you need to be comfortable with a terminal and have a GPU; the full install steps are in the docs folder.

Follow the official instructions in the project README.

Things to check

  • Public beta; macOS and Windows support are still being tested
  • Needs a GPU and terminal skills
  • Cloud backends need paid API keys
  • Browser control and remote access via Telegram give the agent broad access, so they need careful setup

Who's talking about it

Worth a look

iFixAi is a command-line tool that tests an AI agent by placing it in a simulation of your business and sending it realistic requests, including ones that push it beyond its role. A separate AI judge grades each reply, so you can see whether the agent behaves as intended.
