>log in to commentHi all, I'm Gerard. Automatos is the open-source AI Operating System three of us have been building in Lisbon since July 2025: one chat routes work to a team of agents, on any model or on your own Claude Code, Codex or Copilot CLI. Self-host it with docker compose up (Apache-2.0). Honest feedback is the most useful thing you can give us — and if you'd like to contribute, issue #1105 on GitHub is the place to start.

- Open‑source Apache 2.0 license, self‑hostable
- Multi‑provider LLM support (OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Llama)
- API‑first backend with Studio UI
