yanzhiti 2.4.9

衍智体 is a **personal assistant** that runs in your own environment. It talks to you over multiple channels (DingTalk, Feishu, QQ, Discord, iMessage, etc.) and runs scheduled tasks according to your configuration. **What it can do is driven by Skills — the possibilities are open-ended.** Built-in skills include cron, PDF/Office handling, news digest, file reading, and more; you can add custom skills. All data and tasks run on your machine; no third-party hosting.

Quick Start

Option 1: pip install

If you prefer managing Python yourself:

pip install yanzhiti
yanzhiti init --defaults
yanzhiti app

Then open the Console in your browser at http://127.0.0.1:8088/ to configure your model. To chat in DingTalk, Feishu, WeChat, etc., see the Channel setup documentation.

---

Option 2: Script install

No Python setup required, one command installs everything. The script will automatically download uv (Python package manager), create a virtual environment, and install 衍智体 with all dependencies (including Node.js and frontend assets). Note: May not work in restricted network environments or corporate firewalls.

macOS / Linux:

curl -fsSL https://yanzhiti.agentscope.io/install.sh | bash

Windows (CMD):

curl -fsSL https://yanzhiti.agentscope.io/install.bat -o install.bat && install.bat

Windows (PowerShell):

irm https://yanzhiti.agentscope.io/install.ps1 | iex

Note: The installer will automatically check the status of uv. If it is not installed, it will attempt to download and configure it automatically. If the automatic installation fails, please follow the on-screen prompts or execute python -m pip install -U uv, then rerun the installer.

⚠️ Special Notice for Windows Enterprise LTSC Users

If you are using Windows LTSC or an enterprise environment governed by strict security policies, PowerShell may run in Constrained Language Mode, potentially causing the following issue:

1. If using CMD (.bat): Script executes successfully but fails to write to Path

   The script completes file installation. Due to Constrained Language Mode, it cannot automatically update environment variables. Manually configure as follows:

   • Locate the installation directory:
     • Check if uv is available: Enter uv --version in CMD. If a version number appears, only configure the 衍智体 path. If you receive the prompt 'uv' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file, configure both paths.
     • uv path (choose one based on installation location; use if uv fails): Typically %USERPROFILE%\.local\bin, %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\uv, or the Scripts folder within your Python installation directory
     • 衍智体 path: Typically located at %USERPROFILE%\.yanzhiti\bin.
   • Manually add to the system's Path environment variable:
     • Press Win + R, type sysdm.cpl and press Enter to open System Properties.
     • Click “Advanced” -> “Environment Variables”.
     • Under “System variables”, locate and select Path, then click “Edit”.
     • Click “New”, enter both directory paths sequentially, then click OK to save.

2. If using PowerShell (.ps1): Script execution interrupted

Due to Constrained Language Mode, the script may fail to automatically download uv.

• Manually install uv: Refer to the GitHub Release to download uv.exe and place it in %USERPROFILE%\.local\bin or %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\uv; or ensure Python is installed and run python -m pip install -U uv.
• Configure uv environment variables: Add the uv directory and %USERPROFILE%\.yanzhiti\bin to your system's Path variable.
• Re-run the installation: Open a new terminal and execute the installation script again to complete the 衍智体 installation.
• Configure the 衍智体 environment variable: Add %USERPROFILE%\.yanzhiti\bin to your system's Path variable.

Once installed, open a new terminal and run:

yanzhiti init --defaults   # or: yanzhiti init (interactive)
yanzhiti app

Install options

macOS / Linux:

# Install a specific version
curl -fsSL ... | bash -s -- --version 1.1.0

# Install from source (dev/testing)
curl -fsSL ... | bash -s -- --from-source

# Upgrade — just re-run the installer
curl -fsSL ... | bash

# Uninstall
yanzhiti uninstall          # keeps config and data
yanzhiti uninstall --purge  # removes everything

Windows (PowerShell):

# Install a specific version
irm ... | iex; .\install.ps1 -Version 0.0.2

# Install from source (dev/testing)
.\install.ps1 -FromSource

# Upgrade — just re-run the installer
irm ... | iex

# Uninstall
yanzhiti uninstall          # keeps config and data
yanzhiti uninstall --purge  # removes everything

---

Option 3: Docker

Images are on Docker Hub (agentscope/yanzhiti). Image tags: latest (stable); pre (PyPI pre-release).

docker pull agentscope/yanzhiti:latest
docker run -p 127.0.0.1:8088:8088 \
  -v yanzhiti-data:/app/working \
  -v yanzhiti-secrets:/app/working.secret \
  -v yanzhiti-backups:/app/working.backups \
  agentscope/yanzhiti:latest

Also available on Alibaba Cloud Container Registry (ACR) for users in China: agentscope-registry.ap-southeast-1.cr.aliyuncs.com/agentscope/yanzhiti (same tags).

Then open http://127.0.0.1:8088/ for the Console. Config, memory, and skills are stored in the yanzhiti-data volume; model provider settings and API keys are in the yanzhiti-secrets volume; backup archives are stored in the yanzhiti-backups volume. To pass API keys (e.g. DASHSCOPE_API_KEY), add -e VAR=value or --env-file .env to docker run.

Connecting to Ollama or other services on the host machine

Inside a Docker container, localhost refers to the container itself, not your host machine. If you run Ollama (or other model services) on the host and want 衍智体 in Docker to reach them, use one of these approaches:

Option A — Explicit host binding (all platforms):

docker run -p 127.0.0.1:8088:8088 \
  --add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway \
  -v yanzhiti-data:/app/working \
  -v yanzhiti-secrets:/app/working.secret \
  -v yanzhiti-backups:/app/working.backups \
  agentscope/yanzhiti:latest

Then in 衍智体 Settings → Models, change the Base URL to http://host.docker.internal:<port> — for example, http://host.docker.internal:11434 for Ollama, or http://host.docker.internal:1234/v1 for LM Studio.

Option B — Host networking (Linux only):

docker run --network=host \
  -v yanzhiti-data:/app/working \
  -v yanzhiti-secrets:/app/working.secret \
  -v yanzhiti-backups:/app/working.backups \
  agentscope/yanzhiti:latest

No port mapping (-p) is needed; the container shares the host network directly. Note that all container ports are exposed on the host, which may cause conflicts if the port is already in use.

The image is built from scratch. To build the image yourself, please refer to the Build Docker image section in scripts/README.md, and then push to your registry.

---

Option 4: Deploy on Alibaba Cloud ECS

To run 衍智体 on Alibaba Cloud (ECS), use the one-click deployment: open the 衍智体 on Alibaba Cloud (ECS) deployment link and follow the prompts. For step-by-step instructions, see Alibaba Cloud Developer: Deploy your AI assistant in 3 minutes.

---

Option 5: Using ModelScope

No local install? ModelScope Studio one-click cloud setup. Set your Studio to non-public so others cannot control your 衍智体.

---

Option 6: Desktop Application (Beta)

Beta Notice: The desktop application is currently in Beta testing phase with the following known limitations:

• Incomplete compatibility testing: Not fully tested across all system versions and hardware configurations
• Potential performance issues: Startup time, memory usage, and other performance aspects may need further optimization
• Features under development: Some features may be unstable or missing

If you're not comfortable with command-line tools, you can download and use 衍智体's desktop application without manually configuring Python environments or running commands.

Download

Download the desktop app from GitHub Releases:

• Windows: 衍智体-Setup-<version>.exe
• macOS: 衍智体-<version>-macOS.zip (Apple Silicon recommended)

Features

• ✅ Zero configuration: Download and double-click to run, no need to install Python or configure environment variables
• ✅ Cross-platform: Supports Windows 10+ and macOS 14+
• ✅ Visual interface: Automatically opens browser interface, no need to manually enter addresses
• ⚠️ Beta stage: Features are continuously being improved, feedback welcome

First Launch

Important: The first launch may take 10-60 seconds (depending on your system configuration). The application needs to initialize the Python environment and load dependencies. Please wait patiently for the browser window to open automatically.

macOS: Bypass System Security Restrictions

When you download the 衍智体 macOS app from Releases, macOS may show: "Apple cannot verify that '衍智体' contains no malicious software". This happens because the app is not notarized. You can still open it as follows:

• Right-click to open (recommended) Right-click (or Control+click) the 衍智体 app → Open → in the dialog click Open again. This tells Gatekeeper you trust the app; after that you can double-click to launch as usual.

• Allow in System Settings If it is still blocked, go to System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to the message like "衍智体 was blocked because it is from an unidentified developer", and click Open Anyway or Allow.

• Remove quarantine attribute (not recommended for most users) In Terminal run: xattr -cr /Applications/衍智体.app (or use the path to the .app after unzipping). This clears the "downloaded from the internet" quarantine flag so the warning usually does not appear, but is less safe and controllable than using Right-click → Open.

For detailed usage instructions, troubleshooting, and common issues, see the Desktop Application Guide.

API Key

If you use a cloud LLM API (e.g., Qianwen, Gemini, OpenAI), you must configure an API key before chatting. 衍智体 will not work until a valid key is set. See the official docs for details.

How to configure:

1. Console (recommended) — After running yanzhiti app, open http://127.0.0.1:8088/ → Settings → Models. Choose a provider, enter the API Key, and enable that provider and model.
2. yanzhiti init — When you run yanzhiti init, it will guide you through configuring the LLM provider and API key. Follow the prompts to choose a provider and enter your key.
3. Environment variable — For DashScope you can set DASHSCOPE_API_KEY in your shell or in a .env file in the working directory.

Tools that need extra keys (e.g. TAVILY_API_KEY for web search) can be set in Console Settings → Environment variables, see Config for details.

Using local models only? If you use Local Models (llama.cpp / Ollama / LM Studio), you do not need any API key.

Local Models

衍智体 can run LLMs entirely on your machine — no API keys or cloud services required. See the official docs for details.

Backend	Best for	Install
llama.cpp	Cross-platform (macOS / Linux / Windows)	No extra installation required; click "Download Llama.cpp" in the web UI.
Ollama	Cross-platform (requires Ollama service)	Install and start the Ollama app in advance.
LM Studio	Cross-platform (requires LM Studio service)	Install and start the LM Studio app in advance.

Security Features

衍智体 includes multi-layer security mechanisms to protect your data and system:

• Tool guard — Automatically intercepts dangerous shell commands (e.g., rm -rf /, fork bombs, reverse shells, etc.)
• File access guard — Restricts agent access to sensitive paths (e.g., ~/.ssh, key files, system directories, etc.)
• Skill security scanning — Automatically scans before installing skills, detecting risks like prompt injection, command injection, hardcoded keys, data exfiltration, etc.
• Local deployment — All data and memory stored locally, no third-party upload (when using cloud LLM APIs, conversation content is sent to the corresponding API provider)
• Web Authentication — Optional login protection for the Console. Disabled by default; set YANZHITI_AUTH_ENABLED=true to enable. See Web Authentication for details.

See Security documentation for details.

Telemetry

衍智体 collects anonymous usage data during yanzhiti init to help us understand our user base and prioritize improvements. Data is sent once per version — when you upgrade 衍智体, telemetry is re-collected so we can track version adoption.

What we collect:

• 衍智体 version (e.g., 0.0.7)
• Install method (pip, Docker, or desktop app)
• OS and version (e.g., macOS 14.0, Ubuntu 22.04)
• Python version (e.g., 3.13)
• CPU architecture (e.g., x86_64, arm64)
• GPU availability (yes/no)

What we do NOT collect: No personal data, no files, no credentials, no IP addresses, no identifiable information.

When running yanzhiti init interactively, you will be asked whether to opt in. If you choose --defaults, telemetry is accepted automatically. The prompt appears once per version and never affects 衍智体's functionality.
