What it is
A self-hosted, multi-user AI assistant with several specialist agents. It chats through a web dashboard and messaging apps, connects to tools over MCP, and can store agent files on local disk or in Docker.
Who it might suit
Households or small teams who want one self-hosted assistant with separate users and swappable specialist personas.
What to check first
AgentTeams and the mobile client are labelled beta. Its README says the Discord channel answers in every channel it can reach unless an allowlist is set, and Docker first boot writes admin credentials to a text file.
How it runs
Self-hosted server, web console and CLI
