Autonomous multi-agent orchestration platform that executes complex goals end-to-end — without hand-holding.
Most AI tools work for you. AI Partner works as you.
Give it a goal in plain English. It researches, writes code, generates documents, and delivers results to your Telegram, Discord, or Slack — autonomously.

▶ Goal → autonomous execution |
▶ Browser automation & delivery |
AI Partner is a self-hosted, autonomous AI agent platform you run on your own machine with Docker. You describe a goal — it decomposes it into tasks, executes them using real tools (web search, code execution, file generation, messaging), validates outcomes against measurable criteria, and delivers results to you automatically.
"Research the top 10 AI tools launched this week,
write a PDF comparison report, and send it to my Telegram."
AI Partner will: search the web → extract data → analyse results → generate a PDF → send to Telegram → confirm delivery. You don't touch it again.
Requirements: Docker Desktop + one LLM API key (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Groq, DeepSeek, or local Ollama)
Mac / Linux — one command:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AmitkrPaiwal/AI-Partner/main/setup.sh | bashWindows — paste into PowerShell:
iwr -useb https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AmitkrPaiwal/AI-Partner/main/install.ps1 | iexOr manually:
git clone https://github.com/AmitkrPaiwal/AI-Partner
cd AI-Partner
./setup.sh # Mac/Linux
.\install.ps1 # Windows (PowerShell)The installer walks you through choosing an LLM provider, entering your API key, and opens the browser UI automatically. First run takes 2–4 minutes (Docker image build).
Type a goal — AI Partner decomposes it, builds an execution plan, runs it with real tools, validates outcomes against measurable success criteria, and retries or replans on failure.
- ✅ Up to 3 concurrent goals, each with up to 5 parallel sub-agents
- ✅ ReAct loop: Reason → Act → Assess → Retry
- ✅ Self-correcting: if a script errors, it semantically repairs and re-runs
- ✅ Typed success criteria — agent proves completion, doesn't just say "done"
Pre-built agents with enforced tool whitelists, iteration caps, and automatic routing based on keywords.
| Cluster | Agents |
|---|---|
| Research | Web Researcher, Fact Checker, Trend Spotter |
| Dev | Python Developer, Node.js Developer, Debugger, Shell Operator |
| Data | Financial Analyst, Data Analyst, Excel Builder |
| Content | Report Generator, Summarizer, Tech Writer, Prompt Architect, Task Planner |
| Delivery | Telegram Reporter |
Invoke directly: @fin-analyst what is RELIANCE.NS today?
Or let keywords auto-route: typing "trending AI tools" fires @trend-spotter automatically.
Puppeteer-powered browser with live CDP screencasting visible in the UI. When a CAPTCHA appears, the agent pauses and shows a "Solve CAPTCHA — Take Control" button. You solve it, the agent resumes.
Results aren't just saved — they're validated delivery goals. The agent marks a task failed if messaging_send_file doesn't succeed.
Supports: Telegram · Discord · Slack · WhatsApp · Signal
- Episodic memory — timestamped event log of every conversation and outcome
- Vector search — semantic similarity across 4 embedding backends
- Persona — biographic facts and preferences injected into every prompt
- Knowledge base — upload PDFs/docs for RAG retrieval
PDF · Excel (xlsx) · PowerPoint (pptx) · Word (docx) · HTML — downloadable from the UI or sent via messaging.
After a successful goal, AI Partner generalises the solution into a reusable parameterised skill template. Deduplicated by embedding similarity. Skills can be promoted to first-class MCP tools.
Cron-expression scheduling, webhook triggers, Google Calendar events, Gmail arrival — all fire autonomous goal execution.
Each profile specifies:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Tool whitelist | Enforced — agent cannot use tools outside its list |
| Iteration cap | Prevents runaway loops |
| Auto-select keywords | Fires automatically when matched in chat |
| agentType | Determines exhaustion behaviour (research / execution / delivery / synthesis) |
| Handoff instructions | Baked into every system prompt |
Profiles are editable from the UI (Settings → Agent Profiles) or by editing server/src/agents/seedProfiles.ts.
Add any key to .env — the agent automatically gains those tools.

The open-source self-hosted agent space has several strong projects, each built around a different design philosophy. Here's how they are positioned:
| Project | Primary Design Focus | Best Suited For |
|---|---|---|
| AI Partner | End-to-end goal execution with validated outcomes, specialist agents, document generation, and messaging delivery | Users who want to hand off a complete goal and receive a finished, delivered result — with no babysitting |
| Hermes Agent | Autonomous agent with 68 built-in tools, 15+ chat platforms, NL scheduling, and RL training via Atropos | Users who want wide messaging platform coverage and self-improving skills out of the box |
| OpenHuman | Desktop-native personal agent with 118+ OAuth integrations, auto-sync every 20 min, Memory Tree + Obsidian vault | Users who want zero server ops and automatic context from all their connected accounts |
| OpenClaw | Personal, always-on AI assistant with 22+ messaging platforms and a modular skills registry (ClawHub) | Users who want the widest messaging reach — LINE, WeChat, QQ, iMessage, Matrix, and more |
| Agent Zero | OS-level autonomy with dynamic tool creation at runtime; runs in an isolated Docker terminal | Power users who want an agent that can build its own tools and interact deeply with the operating system |
| OpenHands | Enterprise-grade autonomous software engineering; multi-agent collaboration and audit trails | Engineering teams automating code review, bug fixing, or large-scale software development workflows |
| CrewAI | Multi-agent crew pipelines with defined roles, tasks, and handoffs; best-documented orchestration framework | Teams building structured multi-agent workflows with clear role boundaries |
Where AI Partner fits: It is the only project in this space that treats goal delivery — not just task execution — as a first-class requirement. The agent proves outcomes via typed success criteria, validates messaging delivery, and self-corrects on failure. v2 adds human proxy capabilities — acting as you across email, meetings, and phone — which no other self-hosted tool in this table does.
