# MindRoom

AI agents that live in Matrix and work everywhere via bridges.

## What is MindRoom?

MindRoom is an AI agent orchestration system with Matrix integration. It provides:

- **Multi-agent collaboration** - Configure multiple specialized agents that can work together
- **Matrix-native** - Agents live in Matrix rooms and respond to messages
- **Persistent memory** - Agent, room, and team-scoped memory that persists across conversations
- **100+ tool integrations** - Connect to external services like GitHub, Slack, Gmail, and more
- **Hot-reload configuration** - Update `config.yaml` and agents restart automatically
- **Scheduled tasks** - Schedule agents to run at specific times with cron expressions or natural language
- **Voice messages** - Speech-to-text transcription with intelligent command recognition
- **Image analysis** - Pass images to vision-capable AI models for analysis
- **Authorization** - Fine-grained access control for users and rooms

> [!TIP] **Matrix is the backbone** - MindRoom agents communicate through the Matrix protocol, which means they can be bridged to Discord, Slack, Telegram, and other platforms.

## Quick Start

### Recommended: Full Stack Docker Compose (bundled dashboard + Matrix + Element)

**Prereqs:** Docker + Docker Compose.

```
git clone https://github.com/mindroom-ai/mindroom-stack
cd mindroom-stack
cp .env.example .env
$EDITOR .env  # add at least one AI provider key

docker compose up -d
```

Open:

- MindRoom UI: http://localhost:8765
- Element: http://localhost:8080
- Matrix homeserver: http://matrix.localhost:8008

### Manual Install (advanced)

Use this if you already have a Matrix homeserver and want to run MindRoom directly.

```
# Using uv
uv tool install mindroom

# Or using pip
pip install mindroom
```

### Basic Usage (manual)

1. Create a `config.yaml`:

```
agents:
  assistant:
    display_name: Assistant
    role: A helpful AI assistant
    model: default
    rooms: [lobby]

models:
  default:
    provider: openai
    id: gpt-5.2

defaults:
  tools: [scheduler]
  markdown: true
```

1. Set up your environment in `.env`:

```
# Matrix homeserver (must allow open registration)
MATRIX_HOMESERVER=https://matrix.example.com

# AI provider API keys
OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key
```

1. Run MindRoom:

```
mindroom run
```

For local development with a host-installed backend plus Dockerized Synapse + Cinny (Linux/macOS), you can bootstrap the local stack with:

```
mindroom local-stack-setup --synapse-dir /path/to/mindroom-stack/local/matrix
mindroom run
```
