Agents with tool use, deep research, a document editor, an IMAP/SMTP email client with AI triage, notes, tasks, and a CalDAV-synced calendar - Odysseus bundles all of it into one open-source, self-hosted AI workspace. It runs local models through Ollama, vLLM, or llama.cpp and cloud APIs like OpenAI and OpenRouter, with a hardware-aware Cookbook that scans your machine and recommends quantized models that fit. Persistent memory uses ChromaDB with hybrid vector-plus-keyword retrieval, web search runs through a bundled SearXNG instance, and agents can use MCP servers, files, and shell access with safety controls, plus custom skills and scheduled agent tasks. A blind Compare mode runs side-by-side model duels with identities hidden and accumulates Elo-style ratings from your votes, so model selection is based on your actual workloads rather than leaderboard claims. Deep research mode - adapted from the Tongyi DeepResearch approach - reads sources through SearXNG and produces cited reports, while the email client tags, summarizes, sets reminders, and drafts replies locally rather than through a third-party mail AI. The writing-first document editor adds AI edits, Markdown and HTML support, and version history. The stack is Python 3.11 with FastAPI, SQLite for state, and a vanilla JS frontend, licensed AGPL-3.0 with zero telemetry. Because agents can read email and execute commands, keep authentication enabled and never expose it as a public unauthenticated service.

Picture a small staff of AI agents clocking in on your own server, each with a name, a specialty, its own model, and a private Linux desktop it can click around in. Every agent works inside a disposable Docker workstation with a shell, persistent files, and a Chromium browser, so it can research the web, write and run code, and finish multi-step tasks without touching your own files. You watch an agent click and type in real time, and when a login, payment, or one-time code needs a human, you take over the desktop, then hand it back with a note and let it continue. Pair a Telegram bot by scanning a QR code and you can assign work, answer questions, and receive results from your phone, with no public URL or port forwarding. Routines turn recurring requests into schedules, so a morning briefing, a price watch, or a weekly report runs by itself and reports back when it is done. Each agent can use a different model, from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, Groq, Mistral, or DeepSeek to a local Ollama endpoint, and every reply shows its cost while a monthly budget pauses paid models automatically. Agents remember what matters about you across every thread, and logins or cards you save sit in an encrypted vault the agents themselves never see.

A self-hosted "second brain": Khoj indexes your own files and answers questions from them, parsing Markdown (whole Obsidian vaults included), org-mode, PDF, Word, plain text, Notion pages, GitHub repositories, and images described by a vision model, then embedding everything with sentence-transformers into a vector index for semantic search and RAG with cited sources. Any LLM backend works: local models like Llama, Qwen, or Mistral via Ollama, or cloud models like GPT, Claude, and Gemini. You can build custom agents, each with its own persona, scoped knowledge base, chat model, and tools such as web search and code execution. Scheduled automations run recurring research and deliver newsletters or notifications to your inbox, and research mode performs multi-hop web searches with inline citations. Access it from a browser, the Obsidian plugin, Emacs, desktop, or WhatsApp - all clients connect to the same self-hosted instance, making Khoj one of the few AI assistants Emacs users can point at decades of org files. Semantic search means recall works without exact keywords: "that paper about forecasting with transformers" surfaces the right PDF even when you cannot remember its title. Switching LLM backends never requires re-indexing your documents, and with a local model via Ollama, even inference stays on hardware you control - journals, research, and private notes are never sent anywhere. Python/FastAPI stack, AGPL-licensed, with PostgreSQL storage.

Your team's group chat could have a colleague who has read every email, ticket, and document, remembers all of it, and answers in seconds; MindRoom puts AI agents like that into your chat rooms as full participants. Each agent is a real user on the open Matrix protocol, so you talk to it in MindRoom Chat on web or mobile, in any other Matrix client, or through bridges in Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Discord. Give every agent its own model: a local model for private rooms, a frontier model for hard coding problems, and switch per room or thread whenever the work changes. Agents connect to more than 100 tools, including Gmail, calendars, GitHub, Google Drive, Home Assistant, and any MCP server, and they search your own documents and knowledge bases for answers with sources. Memory persists across conversations and platforms, so an agent remembers people, preferences, and project context months later and can turn repeated work into reusable skills. Before an agent sends an email or runs a command, an approval card shows exactly what will happen; you tap once to allow it, and sandboxed workers keep executed code away from your credentials. Schedule morning briefings, silent inbox checks, and recurring digests in plain language, or wake an agent from any other system with a single HTTP request.

Moltis gives individuals and teams a completely private personal AI agent server that bridges conversational assistants to everyday messaging platforms while executing real-world computing tasks inside secure execution environments. Users can interact with autonomous agents across Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, Slack, Matrix, and browser interfaces to draft correspondence, automate research, and schedule recurring cron tasks. The system coordinates multi-agent delegation by spinning up specialized sub-agents with dedicated roles for code generation, pull request reviews, quality assurance testing, and technical documentation. Built-in sandboxing isolates tool operations within container boundaries or WebAssembly modules, ensuring shell commands, web scraping routines, and script executions cannot alter underlying operating system files without explicit permission. Native Model Context Protocol integration allows operators to attach external data endpoints, database connectors, and custom command-line utilities without rewriting core routing logic. Persistent memory preserves conversational context and document embeddings across multiple sessions, allowing assistants to recall prior discussions, user preferences, and project guidelines indefinitely. Administrators can configure granular tool approvals, manage WebAuthn passkey authentication, and review real-time WebSocket communication logs through an embedded control panel.
