ISEK Distributed Multi-Agent Framework

Isek: Distributed Cooperative-Autonomous Multi-Agent Framework

Isek is a lightweight, modular, and distributed multi-agent framework built for the next generation of cooperative autonomous systems. Agents in Isek aren’t just isolated functions — they form a decentralized society, discovering peers, sharing context, and collaboratively solving complex tasks across nodes.

With built-in LLM integration and an intuitive CLI, Isek is ideal for researchers, developers, and builders designing intelligent, collaborative agents in distributed environments.

🧪 Isek is under active development — your feedback, experiments, and contributions are highly welcome.

Key Features

• Cooperative Autonomy: Agents autonomously discover suitable peers in the network, communicate, and collaborate to complete tasks in a decentralized fashion.

• Distributed Agent Orchestration: Spin up and manage intelligent agents across multiple nodes with flexible task assignment and coordination..

• LLM Integration: Built-in support for integrating Large Language Models such as OpenAI, enabling advanced NLP functionalities.

• Modular Design: Highly modular architecture ensures ease of maintenance, scalability, and flexibility for customization.

• Lightweight and User-Friendly: Designed for easy adoption, providing a streamlined user experience without complex setup or heavy dependencies.

📦 Installation

pip install isek

Python 3.8+ is required.

Known Issue

for 3.9.6 on MAC ifsphinx-quickstart you see faiss-cpu error. try: brew install swig

🚀 Quick Start

1. Set Your API Environment

Create a .env file at the root:

OPENAI_MODEL_NAME=gpt-4o-mini
OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.openai.com/v1
OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key

2. Start the Local Registry

isek registry

This launches a local orchestrator to manage distributed agents.

3. Explore the Examples
