A smarter, self-hosted AI assistant — multi-user, multi-agent.

English · 中文

---

Octop is an open-source AI assistant platform built on the Harness stack — multi-user, multi-agent, fully self-hosted. One process runs the dashboard, CLI, IM channels, and cron jobs; all data stays on your machine.

Chat through the Web Dashboard, Feishu, DingTalk, QQ, Discord, WeCom, or programmatic HTTP/SSE. Extend capabilities with the expert library, Connectors (OAuth + MCP), and ACP integration for IDE workflows.

✨ Highlights

	Feature	Description
👥	Multi-user expert team	One admin, shared household; built-in expert library — switch specialists per scenario
🎭	MBTI personas	16 personality templates plus an interactive quiz — give each agent a distinct character
🔒	Security built-in	JWT multi-user isolation, tool approval, shell command guardrails, and PII redaction — data stays local
🔌	Connector ecosystem	Tencent suite (Docs, Weibo trends, News, …); OAuth and MCP gateway extend resource boundaries
💾	Pluggable backends	Local disk, Docker containers, PostgreSQL, or COS/S3 — AI operates inside isolated boundaries
🧠	Portable memory	Powered by harness-memory; memory migrates with the workspace
↔️	ACP bidirectional	octop acp for IDE/terminal AI; delegate to OpenCode / Claude Code with permission gates
💻	Terminal AI+	Interactive shell in the browser — AI-assisted command execution and troubleshooting
🌐	Browser AI+	Headless Chromium sessions for web automation, screenshots, and remote browsing
🏠	Self-hosted	Dashboard, CLI, IM channels, and cron in one octop run — all data under ~/.octop/

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• macOS / Linux / Windows
• No pre-installed Python required — the installer uses uv to provision Python 3.12 in an isolated venv under ~/.octop/

1. Install

macOS / Linux — one-line installer (recommended):

curl -fsSL https://finnie-1258344699.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/octop/install.sh | bash

Windows (PowerShell):

irm https://finnie-1258344699.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/octop/install.ps1 | iex

Windows (cmd) — download and run, or from a cloned repo:

curl -fsSL https://finnie-1258344699.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/octop/install.bat -o install.bat
install.bat

After installation, open a new terminal or reload your shell:

source ~/.zshrc   # Zsh
# or
source ~/.bashrc  # Bash

The installer places octop on your PATH via ~/.octop/bin. Optional extras:

# Browser automation (Playwright Chromium)
curl -fsSL https://finnie-1258344699.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/octop/install.sh | bash -s -- --extras browser

# Feishu channel support
curl -fsSL https://finnie-1258344699.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/octop/install.sh | bash -s -- --extras channels-feishu

See scripts/README.md for all install options (--version, --from-source, --mirror, Windows flags).

Alternative — PyPI (if you already manage Python yourself):

pip install octop
# optional: pip install "octop[browser]"

2. Initialize

octop init

The interactive wizard creates the SQLite database, JWT secret, and first admin account under ~/.octop/.

3. Run

# Foreground (API + Web dashboard)
octop run

# Custom host / port
octop run --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8088

# Register as a system service (systemd / launchd / Windows service)
octop service start

Open http://127.0.0.1:8088 — default credentials are admin / octop (change immediately).

Docker (recommended for production)

# Build and start
docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.yml up -d

# Or build manually
bash deploy/docker_build.sh
docker run -d \
  -p 8088:8088 \
  -v octop-data:/data/.octop \
  -e HOME=/data \
  -e OCTOP_DEFAULT_PASSWORD=changeme \
  octop:latest

Open http://localhost:8088 — default credentials are admin / octop (change immediately).

Variable	Default	Description
OCTOP_PORT	8088	HTTP listen port
OCTOP_DEFAULT_PASSWORD	octop	First-run admin password
OCTOP_ADMIN_USERNAME	admin	First-run admin username
OCTOP_DATA	~/.octop	Host data directory (compose bind mount)

See .env.example for the full list.

📦 Install options

Method	Platform	Description
Remote one-liner	macOS / Linux	curl …/octop/install.sh | bash
Remote one-liner	Windows	irm …/octop/install.ps1 | iex or install.bat
Local script	macOS / Linux	bash scripts/install.sh
Local script	Windows	scripts\install.bat or install.ps1
PyPI	Any	pip install octop or pip install "octop[browser]"
Docker	Any	deploy/docker-compose.yml

All install scripts provision an isolated environment at ~/.octop/venv and a ~/.octop/bin/octop wrapper — they do not touch system Python.

🧩 Core capabilities

Server & auth

• Multi-user JWT authentication with admin role
• First-run setup wizard (octop init)
• Interactive API docs at /api/docs

Agents

• Multiple agents per user; each has its own workspace, providers, channels, and cron
• 16 MBTI persona templates + custom system prompt
• Expert library scanned at boot (infra/agents/experts/library/)
• Workspace backends: local disk, COS, S3, and other remote stores

Channels & automation

• IM channels: Feishu, DingTalk, QQ, Discord, WeCom, and more
• Proactive cron jobs with natural-language and slash-command triggers
• Unified message processing across Web UI, IM, and cron surfaces

Surfaces

• Web dashboard — chat, agents, connectors, channels, cron, settings
• CLI — octop run, octop chat, octop acp, admin commands
• HTTP/SSE API — full programmatic access

ACP (Agent Client Protocol)

Octop supports ACP in two directions:

1. Inbound — external tools use your Octop agent

   octop acp --agent main   # stdio ACP server for Zed, OpenCode, …
   

2. Outbound — Octop delegates to external coding agents

   • Dashboard → ACP (/acp): configure runners (global per user)
   • Enable acp_runner per agent, then delegate in chat

Built-in outbound runners include OpenCode, CodeBuddy, Claude Code, and Codex.

Full setup: docs/acp.md.

⚙️ Configuration

All runtime state lives in ~/.octop/. Manage it via CLI or edit files directly.

🔒 Security & privacy

• Local-first: Config, chats, workspaces, and credentials live under ~/.octop/ on your machine.
• Multi-user isolation: JWT auth with per-user agents and workspaces.
• Tool guardrails: User-editable shell command rules under ~/.octop/security/tool_guard/.
• No vendor lock-in: Swap LLM providers, storage backends, and channels without rewriting agents.
