Description

Soul-driven AI agent with permission-hardened tools, token budgets, and multi-channel access. Runs 24/7 from CLI, Telegram or More.

The soul-driven AI agent that lives on your machine. It asks before it acts, remembers what matters, and keeps working when you walk away.

Main features

  • AUTO mode: plans and builds in one pass, and asks once before large or risky changes
  • Verified completion: a task ends as done only when a build, test or typecheck ran and passed. Otherwise it stops and names the blocker
  • Live plan: every step is shown as pending, active or done
  • Background work: /code agent hands a task to a sub-agent while you keep working
  • Workspace view: /ws to browse, stage, commit and undo; /code diff for a colored diff
  • Onboard with /bots create from the terminal, Telegram or the web dashboard: persona, permission tier, solo or fleet, daily budget
