termux-aichain

Sovereign Zero-Dependency AI Chaining and Multimodal Autonomous Agent Framework for Android Edge and Termux.

PyPI Version npm Version License: Apache-2.0 Test Suite Architecture


1. Overview & Architectural Rationale

Mainstream edge AI frameworks introduce extensive third-party dependency trees (Pydantic, NumPy, aiohttp, requests), often requiring 200MB+ memory baselines and triggering C/C++ compilation failures on ARM Android runtimes.

termux-aichain is engineered under the Zero-Heavy-Dependency doctrine:

  • Pure Python 3.10+ Standard Library: Zero external heavy package requirements (urllib, sqlite3, subprocess, json, math).
  • Pure Node.js 18+ ESM Runtime: Vanilla TypeScript/ESM implementation without native node-gyp binary dependencies.
  • Unified Multimodal Control: Native orchestration for local llama-server, BitNet 1.58b 1-bit models, cyclic StateGraph state machines, SQLite ACID long-term memory, and Android hardware actuation (Termux-API and kernel sysfs fallbacks).

2. Installation & Quick Diagnostics

One-Touch Bootstrap Script (Android Termux)

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uno-km/termux-aichain/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

Python Package Installation (PyPI)

pip install --upgrade termux-aichain

Node.js ESM Package Installation (npm)

npm install termux-aichain

Command Line Interface (CLI) Diagnostics

# Verify environment dependencies, Termux APIs, and engine paths
termux-aichain setup

# Download verified GGUF model checkpoint (Llama-3.2-3B, Qwen-2.5-1.5B, BitNet-3B)
termux-aichain pull qwen-2.5-1.5b

# Start 1-line REST, SSE streaming, and Web Dashboard on port 8080
termux-aichain serve --port 8080

3. Seven Core Subsystem Specifications

1) Core Chaining Engine (termux_aichain.core)

  • PromptTemplate / ChatPromptTemplate: Deterministic named-variable substitution and message formatting with escape protection for double braces.
  • Runnable / RunnableLambda / RunnableSequence: Standard pipe composition operator (|) supporting synchronous (invoke, stream) and asynchronous (ainvoke, astream) iteration.
  • JsonOutputParser / StringOutputParser: Extraction of markdown-fenced or raw JSON payloads with defensive fallback handlers.
  • RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter: Structural document splitting preserving semantic paragraph and sentence boundaries.

2) Multi-Agent Graph Engine (termux_aichain.graph)

  • StateGraph: Cyclic state machine supporting entry points, explicit edges, conditional routing functions, and recursion limits (max_iterations).
  • create_react_agent: Autonomous Reasoning + Acting (ReAct) loop integrating LLM decision models with declared Tool instances.

3) Memory & Vector Store Subsystem (termux_aichain.memory)

  • ConversationBufferMemory: Fixed-window rolling message history manager.
  • SQLiteEntityMemory: ACID-compliant key-value persistent storage backed by native sqlite3.
  • SQLiteVectorStore / MicroVectorStore: Pure cosine similarity vector index operating without ChromaDB, FAISS, or NumPy.

4) Local Server & Engine Manager (termux_aichain.core.providers)

  • LocalServerConfig / LlamaCppServer / BitNetServer: Process lifecycle management, automatic port binding, healthcheck verification, and CLI argument builder.
  • OpenAICompatibleChat / BitNetChat: Full-spectrum sampling client with automatic latency telemetry (latency_ms).

5) High-Precision Tracer Subsystem (termux_aichain.trace)

  • Tracer / TraceSpan: Hierarchical execution tracing, millisecond profiling, token throughput (TPS) measurement, and JSONL log export.

6) Device Hardware Telemetry & Actuation (termux_aichain.device)

  • Native Tools: get_battery_status, get_sensor_data, get_device_location, vibrate_device, send_notification, speak_tts, execute_shell.
  • Three-Tier Fallback: Automatic kernel sysfs (/sys/class/power_supply/battery) querying when termux-api is unavailable.

7) Ecosystem Interoperability (termux_aichain.device.ecosystem)

  • transcribe_speech: Native microphone capture and speech recognition via termux-stt.
  • generate_diffusion_image: Mobile device resource-backed image synthesis via termux-diffusion.
  • browse_web_headless: Headless web automation and scraping via termux-playwright.
