License / pricing

Apache-2.0

What it does

Chat plus durable memory, tool use, switchable agent profiles, and a goal mode that delegates scoped child agents to research, review or implement. App data stays local by default, and computer-use is opt-in rather than on. That breadth is the thing to manage: decide which capabilities you actually want before enabling them. Pick a local model and nothing leaves; pick a hosted one and the conversation goes there. Apache-2.0.

Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.
