GeniusBot

The desktop cockpit for Arbora.
_{A unified, visual control deck over the Arbora multi-agent ecosystem.}

Documentation · Architecture · Concepts

Version: 5.2.0

Overview

GeniusBot is the premium, unified cockpit and visual control deck built on top of Arbora and its agent-utilities control plane. It integrates every specialist agent and MCP package in the fleet into a single-pane-of-glass user interface, offering 1-click execution, embedded hybrid terminals, zero-nesting visual layouts, and a zero-trust hardware protection layer.

GeniusBot provides a centralized graphical cockpit designed to eliminate tedious click-through fatigue. It maps specialist agent parameter schemas directly to custom QSS-themed form widgets on the fly.

Operators can trigger actions, monitor running terminal inputs via the embedded agent-terminal-ui, and secure dangerous CLI calls using the Zero-Trust Tool-Guard interceptor.

Key Capabilities

• Dynamic, schema-driven control panels for every specialist agent and MCP package in the fleet.
• An embedded hybrid terminal (xterm.js) for interactive, in-cockpit sessions.
• A zero-trust Tool-Guard that intercepts and confirms sensitive mutations before execution.
• Ask-Data (NL→Query), engine metrics/PromQL, and federated search over the Arbora gateway.
• A fleet supervisory cockpit: worker topology and the ActionPolicy approval inbox.

✨ Features

• Zero-Nesting Dynamic UI: Navigation categorized into flat category menus (Dashboard, Infra, Media, Productivity, Research).
• Dynamic Card Schema Grid: PySide6 widgets are built automatically from specialist agent tool specifications.
• Embedded Hybrid Terminal: Hosts local xterm.js to run interactive terminal loops directly in the cockpit.
• Zero-Trust Security Tool Guard: Prompts native authorization dialogs to review arguments before executing dangerous mutations.
• Runnable Background Workers: Utilizes thread pools (QThreadPool) to prevent GUI freezes during execution loops.
• Visual Trading Dashboard: Snappy native C++ charting engine (PySide6.QtCharts) with OHLCV candlestick/line toggles, strategy indicator overlay crossovers (MACD/RSI), orderbook bids/asks depth volumes, and thread-safe crypto news feeds.
• Ask Data (NL→Query): Ask the Knowledge Graph a question in plain English; the engine generates an auditable read-only query (UQL/Cypher/SQL/SPARQL), runs it, and synthesizes an answer with citations — over the gateway /api/graph/ask-data and /api/graph/nl-query routes.
• Engine Metrics & Status: Query engine observability with PromQL (/api/graph/promql) and watch the shared content-addressed KV-cache occupancy (/api/graph/kvcache).
• Federated Search: Fan one query across every registered external graph and rank the merged results (/api/graph/federated-search).

🏛️ Architecture

GeniusBot is engineered as a lightweight PySide6 GUI client wrapper around the agent-utilities logic engine.
