Autonomys Agents

Autonomys Agents is an experimental TypeScript framework for building autonomous AI agents. It supports social-network interactions, including Twitter integration, and persistent agent memory through the Autonomys Network, with orchestration, character-based configuration and an extensible tool system.

Practical overview

When it fits

Use it when developing and configuring an autonomous social-network agent and exploring persistent agent memory through the Autonomys Network.

Who it is for

  • Developers building autonomous agents that interact with social networks.
  • Developers who want to configure agent personalities and use persistent memory through the Autonomys Network.

Documented uses

  • Create and configure an agent character with a defined personality and behavior.
  • Build an agent for social-network engagement, including the documented Twitter integration.
  • Store agent memory through the Autonomys Network.
  • Manage long conversations with configurable message pruning and summarization.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

  • The framework is explicitly experimental and early-stage; the README warns that the main branch can contain breaking changes.
  • Memory setup has distinct requirements: OPENAI_API_KEY is required for the vector database, and AUTO_DRIVE_API_KEY is given for Autonomys Network storage.
  • Generating SSL certificates is required when using the API server; headless mode is documented as an option without that server.
  • The README describes Docker support for isolated multiple-agent deployments but directs readers to the template repository for detailed container setup.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Set up an agent character

Create a character configuration and prepare it to start with the framework.

Before you start

  • A repository created from the autonomys-agent-template
  • Yarn and the dependencies installed
  • API keys and credentials for the selected integrations; the README specifies OPENAI_API_KEY for the memory vector database
  • On Windows, Visual Studio C++ Redistributable

Steps

  1. Clone the new repository, enter its directory and run yarn install.

  2. Run yarn create-character with a character name.

  3. Edit the character’s .env file with API keys and credentials, adjust config.yaml for behavior, and define its personality in the character YAML file.

  4. Run yarn generate-certs if the character will use the API server.

Expected outcome

A configured character and the setup files needed to start it with the documented yarn start command.

Guide limitations

  • The framework is experimental and the main branch may contain breaking changes; the README recommends the latest stable release for production.
  • This setup recipe does not cover configuring Autonomys Network storage; the README gives AUTO_DRIVE_API_KEY as a separate integration setting.
