An English-only model supporting 32K context and licensed under Apache 2.0 for commercial use.
The open-source project enables shared workspaces where humans and AI agents collaborate using local models like Ollama or external APIs.
Capsem isolates AI agents like Claude Code and Gemini CLI in ephemeral Linux VMs with a transparent MITM proxy for full network inspection and policy enforcement.
Mecatl is an Apache 2.0 licensed, open-source runtime for executing AI agents on self-hosted infrastructure, featuring provider-agnostic model integration, durable event logs, and optional microVM isolation for tool execution.
The design minimizes network round-trips by storing indexes in single Parquet 'superfiles' and using a manifest to eliminate initial metadata fetches.
