registry.gitlab.com/nokodo/os1/backendWhat is os1?
OS1 (nokodo) is a self-hostable, open-source AI platform built for individuals and teams who want full control over their AI workspace. It combines autonomous multi-turn agents that can plan, act, and delegate sub-tasks; a coding agent with sandboxed terminal and file editing via E2B; deep research with multi-iteration search and document synthesis; and real-time collaborative chats where humans and AI models share conversations with thread branching. The platform includes persistent memory across sessions, a Jinja2-based composable prompting engine, AI-generated artifacts (canvas tool for files, images, code), and an admin console for user management, OIDC/SSO, role-based access, rate limiting, and audit logging. It runs via Docker Compose with PostgreSQL 17, Qdrant vector database, and Valkey (Redis-compatible) as dependencies. The frontend is a Progressive Web App with push notifications and installable on mobile/desktop; native iOS/Android apps are on the roadmap. The project is in alpha stage with pre-release versions (v0.3.0-rc.2 for frontend/console, v1.0.0-rc.2 for library) and expects breaking changes. Licensed under the custom OS1 License (attribution permission over AGPL-3.0 base) which allows commercial use with credit but reserves AI training rights.
