pawnai-matrix 0.3.0

A matrix bot named Bob

Matrix BOB

A Matrix bot to experiment with autoregressive LLMs.
Bob integrates with any OpenAI-compatible API (e.g. Ollama, LiteLLM) and can:

• carry on conversations in Matrix rooms
• transcribe audio messages and use them as input
• describe and process images
• scrape the web and summarize content

Install

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install .

Development

pip install --editable .

Configuration

Copy the sample config and fill in your values:

cp config/sample.config.yaml config/config.yaml

Minimum fields to set: Matrix credentials (user_id, user_password, homeserver_url, device_id), inviters, power_users, and the openai.url pointing at your LLM backend.

Run

Bob requires a PostgreSQL database. The docker/ directory contains a docker-compose.yaml that starts the database and the bot together:

cd docker
docker compose up -d

Or run locally after starting PostgreSQL separately:

bob [config/config.yaml]

Config file defaults to config/config.yaml.

Database migrations

alembic upgrade head

Run this once on first setup and after any update that includes new migrations.

Deployment

See docs/deployment.md for a full production deployment guide (Docker Compose + systemd + GitHub Actions CI).
