Edge Core, an open-source control plane that lets AI agents directly control distributed Linux systems, has been released.
Details
Edge Core is an agent-first control plane for managing distributed Linux fleets.
Key features include:
- AI Agent Integration: All REST API endpoints are mirrored as MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools, allowing AI agents to directly operate and manage the entire fleet.
- Networking and Proxy: Supports Netmaker-based mesh networking and segmentation, and provides proxy chaining for communication between cloud and edge.
- Metrics and Events: Features Prometheus-compatible metrics collection, and integrates with various event brokers through 7 adapters including NATS, Kafka, Redis, and MQTT.
- Masterless Architecture: Adopts a masterless clustering structure managed via Postgres and an in-memory registry, without a Raft consensus algorithm.
