ISEK Distributed Multi-Agent Framework

Isek: Decentralized Agent-to-Agent (A2A) Network

English | 中文

---

Isek is a decentralized agent network framework designed for building intelligent, collaborative agent-to-agent (A2A) systems. Agents in Isek autonomously discover peers, share context, and cooperatively solve tasks, forming a self-organizing, decentralized society.

With native integration of large language models (LLMs) and a user-friendly CLI, Isek empowers developers and researchers to quickly prototype, deploy, and manage intelligent agent networks.

🧪 ISEK is under active development. Contributions, feedback, and experiments are highly welcome.

💡 Why ISEK?

The world is shifting from human-defined workflows and centralized orchestration to autonomous, agent-driven coordination.

While most frameworks treat agents as isolated executors, ISEK focuses on the missing layer: decentralized agent collaboration and coordination. We believe the future of intelligent systems lies in self-organizing agent networks capable of context sharing, team formation, and collective reasoning — all without central control.

ISEK enables:

• 🔍 Autonomous agent discovery and recruitment across a peer-to-peer network
• 🧠 Model-agnostic intelligence, allowing agents to use any LLM or backend
• 🤝 Composable multi-agent teamwork, with plug-and-play collaboration protocols
• 🌐 Truly distributed deployments, from local clusters to global swarms

ISEK is not just about running agents — it's about empowering them to find each other, reason together, and act as a decentralized system.

📦 Installation

Quick Install

pip install isek
isek setup

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10+
• Node.js 18+ (for P2P functionality)

💡 Tip: The isek setup command automatically handles both Python and JavaScript dependencies.

🚀 Quick Start

1️⃣ Set Up Environment

Create a .env file:

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

2️⃣ Launch Agent

from isek.agent.isek_agent import IsekAgent
from isek.models.openai import OpenAIModel
import dotenv
dotenv.load_dotenv()

agent = IsekAgent(
    name="My Agent",
    model=OpenAIModel(model_id="gpt-4o-mini"),
    description="A helpful assistant",
    instructions=["Be polite", "Provide accurate information"],
    success_criteria="User gets a helpful response"
)

response = agent.run("hello")
