AI King

Single-distribution AI agent platform stack — governance, body, substrate, and optional engine in one pip install.

Install

pip install aiking          # shell + transitive engine + concinno migration deps
pip install "aiking[body]"  # add aiking.body.engine adapters (persona-api)
pip install "aiking[memoria]"  # Windows-only RAM cleanup tray (concinno-skills-memoria)
pip install "aiking[skills]"   # full opt-in skill suite

Quick check

aiking --version
aiking info
aiking layers

aiking info prints the installed substrate adapter (defaults to the vendored MIT fork substrate) and any aiking.core_engine entry points discovered from aiking-core.

What you get

The aiking shell is permissively Apache-2.0 licensed. The substantive engine (ZIQ, FieldRead, Cerno, guards, runtime, PSYCHE) lives in aiking-core (AGPL-3.0-or-later, commercial dual). They are wired together via the aiking.core_engine entry-point group — the shell does not import aiking_core directly, preserving the AGPL boundary.

Migrating from concinno / persona-api

The 5.3.0 release of concinno and the 2.1.0 release of persona-api emit DeprecationWarning and forward to aiking modules. Removal is scheduled for concinno 6.0.0 / persona-api 3.0.0 (~2026-11-01).

Update imports:

from concinno.guards.X      → from aiking.governance.guards.X
from concinno.cognitive.Y   → from aiking.governance.c0_router (re-export)
from concinno.ziq           → from aiking_core.ziq
from concinno.field_read    → from aiking_core.fieldread
from persona.engine         → from aiking.body.engine
from persona.cerno          → from aiking_core.cerno

Known caveat (1.0.1)

from aiking.body import engine requires pip install "aiking[body]" to pull persona-api. As of persona-api 2.1.0 the package has an upstream from .engine import PersonaEngine self-import bug that prevents import persona from succeeding even when installed. Wait for persona-api 2.1.1 for that path to work end-to-end. Everything else — aiking info, aiking layers, from aiking_core import ziq, from aiking_core import fieldread, from aiking_core import cerno, from aiking.governance import guards, from aiking.substrate import get_substrate — is verified working from a clean pip install aiking on Python 3.10–3.13.
