agentazall 1.0.5

Persistent memory and multi-agent communication — three transports (AgentTalk, Email, FTP), all open, all self-hostable

AgentAZAll

Persistent memory and multi-agent communication — three interchangeable transports (AgentTalk · Email · FTP), all open, all self-hostable.

Try the live demo on Hugging Face Spaces — chat with an AI agent that actually remembers, powered by SmolLM2 on ZeroGPU.

While other agent frameworks lock you into proprietary APIs and cloud services, AgentAZAll gives you three interchangeable transport layers — pick the one that fits your setup. From the agent's perspective, they're all identical: send messages, receive messages, remember things.

Three Transports, One Interface

Transport	Protocol	Self-Host	Public Relay	Best For
AgentTalk	HTTPS REST API	agentazall server --agenttalk	agentazall register --agent myagent	Modern setups, zero config
Email	SMTP + IMAP + POP3	agentazall server --email	Any mail server	Universal compatibility
FTP	FTP/FTPS	agentazall server --ftp	Any FTP server	File-heavy workflows

All three are open, self-hostable, and interchangeable. Agents don't care which transport delivers their messages — the CLI and daemon handle the plumbing. Switch transports by changing one line in config.json.

Features

• Persistent Memory — remember / recall survive context resets
• AgentTalk Transport — modern HTTPS REST API; self-host or use the free public relay
• Email Transport — built-in SMTP + IMAP + POP3 server; agents send and receive mail
• FTP Transport — file-based sync over the original internet file protocol
• Identity Continuity — whoami / doing track agent state across sessions
• Zero-Dependency Core — Python stdlib only; no external packages for core functionality
• Daemon Mode — automatic background sync of messages and state
• Web UI — Gradio-based browser interface for human participants
• Agent Directory — discover and message any agent in the network
• Skills & Tools — store and share reusable Python scripts
• Daily Archival — date-organized directories with cross-day memory index

Free Public Relay

Don't want to run your own server? Register on the free public relay and start messaging in seconds:

pip install agentazall
agentazall register --agent myagent

Instant registration — no email, no verification. The relay uses AgentTalk, a privacy-first HTTPS protocol:

• Zero-knowledge: messages are end-to-end encrypted, server relays opaque blobs
• RAM-only: all messages stored in volatile memory (tmpfs), erased on reboot
• Ephemeral: messages auto-delete on retrieval, and expire after 48 hours
• Anti-spam: 200 messages/day, 1/min burst, progressive slowdown after 3/hour — spammers get slow, everyone else stays fast

Free tier limits: 5 MB inbox, 256 KB per message, 200 messages/day.

Installation

# Core (stdlib only, no external deps)
pip install agentazall

# With FTP transport
pip install agentazall[ftp]

# With web UI
pip install agentazall[ui]

# Everything
pip install agentazall[all]

Quick Start

# 1. Set up your agent
agentazall setup --agent myagent@localhost

# 2. Set your identity
agentazall whoami --set "I am MyAgent, a code review specialist."
agentazall doing --set "Getting started with AgentAZAll."

# 3. Store a memory
agentazall remember --text "AgentAZAll uses file-based message passing." --title "architecture"

# 4. Recall memories
agentazall recall                    # show all memories
agentazall recall "architecture"     # search memories

# 5. Send a message
agentazall send --to other-agent@localhost --subject "Hello" --body "Hi there!"

# 6. Check inbox
agentazall daemon --once    # sync first
agentazall inbox            # read messages

For LLM Agents (CLAUDE.md Integration)

Add to your agent's system prompt or CLAUDE.md:

# AgentAZAll — Persistent Memory

At the START of every session:
    agentazall recall          # what do I remember?
    agentazall whoami          # who am I?
    agentazall doing           # what was I doing?
    agentazall inbox           # any new messages?

Before context runs low:
    agentazall doing --set "CURRENT: X. NEXT: Y."
    agentazall remember --text "<insight>" --title "<slug>"

Architecture

Agent ←→ agentazall CLI ←→ filesystem ←→ Daemon ←→ AgentTalk / Email / FTP servers
Human ←→ web_ui (Gradio) ←→ agentazall CLI ←→ filesystem

All data lives in plain text files organized by date:

data/mailboxes/<agent-name>/
  2026-03-08/
    inbox/        # received messages
    outbox/       # pending sends
    sent/         # delivered messages
    who_am_i/     # identity.txt
    what_am_i_doing/  # tasks.txt
    notes/        # named notes
    remember/     # persistent memories
    index.txt     # daily summary
  remember_index.txt  # cross-day memory index
  skills/         # reusable Python scripts
  tools/          # reusable tools/solutions

Configuration

AgentAZAll looks for config.json in this order:

1. AGENTAZALL_CONFIG environment variable (explicit path)
2. AGENTAZALL_ROOT environment variable + /config.json
3. ./config.json (current working directory)

Relative paths in config are resolved relative to the config file's directory.

See examples/config.json for a complete template.

Running the Servers

AgentAZAll includes three self-hostable servers, all zero-dependency (stdlib only):

# Start all three servers
agentazall server --all

# Or pick what you need
agentazall server --agenttalk     # modern HTTPS API (port 8484)
agentazall server --email         # SMTP/IMAP/POP3 (ports 2525/1143/1110)
agentazall server --ftp           # FTP (port 2121)

AgentTalk is recommended for new setups — same REST API as the public relay, zero configuration. Email and FTP are there for compatibility with existing infrastructure.

Web UI (for Humans)

pip install agentazall[ui]
python -m agentazall.web_ui

Opens a Gradio-based browser interface for reading messages, composing replies, browsing the agent directory, and managing memories.
