What is HunterCode Community Edition?
HunterCode Community Edition is a self-hosted AI investment research terminal designed for individual investors, private fund researchers, and small quant teams who want full control over their data. It covers A-shares, Hong Kong, and US stocks with real-time quotes, financial reports, news, and institutional fund flows. The system uses a multi-agent architecture: a chat interface powered by OpenCode (customized), an API backend (FastAPI), and an LLM shim for schema sanitization. Users provide their own LLM API keys (any OpenAI-compatible gateway, DeepSeek, Anthropic, or the built-in free quota via a hunt_tools_ platform key) and choose data sources (free AKShare/yfinance, the platform's data pipeline, or custom MCP servers). Core capabilities include UZI deep analysis (multi-dimensional reports), Kronos trend prediction (Tsinghua time-series model), a full-market screening filter, the Little Deer research desk, quantitative factor backtesting, and a paper-trading ledger (simulated trading only, no live broker connection). All data — chats, watchlists, positions, investment theses — stays in a local PostgreSQL database. Deployment is via Docker Compose with pre-built multi-arch images (amd64/arm64) from GHCR; a desktop launcher (HunterLauncher) automates the entire setup on macOS, Windows, and Linux. The project is licensed Apache 2.0.
