Visual Docker Compose Builder — drag-and-drop your docker-compose.yml in the browser.
This is a public, sanitized version of my Abiverse repository for people to use and run their own Abes.
Volition (fondly referred to me as the Abiverse) is a self-hosted, multi-agent system designed to run persistent, self-replicating autonomous LLM-based agents ("Abes") inside isolated Linux containers. These are not chatbots, but I have aimed for them to be long-lived system processes with memory, tools, and constrained authority over real machines. These are supposed to be the 'semi-intelligent layer' between you and your homelab.
Volition has been running continuously in my personal infrastructure with multiple agents for more than a month now. However, this public release is new and has not yet been exercised end-to-end by external users. Expect rough edges in: setup and documentation flow, first-run ergonomics, and non-default configurations Core architecture and invariants are stable, but installation paths will be refined over the next few days as this release is tested in the open.
