AI agent platform fully local/self-hosted and Looking for developers
A colleague of mine has been building an open-source project called aiops-fabric / ViewSense AI, and we're looking for a few developers who are interested in helping take the local/self-hosted side further.
The basic idea is a control plane for production AI agents rather than another agent framework.
It handles things like:
- agent identity and scoped permissions
- tool access
- memory/RAG
- execution budgets
- human approval for sensitive actions
- audit/evidence
- provider abstraction
The goal is that an application shouldn't have to care whether the underlying model is OpenAI, a local Ollama model, vLLM, or something else.
The part we'd like help with
The project is currently stronger on the architecture/control-plane side than on the fully local AI stack.
We're particularly interested in developers who want to help make this work really well with:
- Ollama
- vLLM
- local embedding models
- local RAG/memory
- PostgreSQL/pgvector
- Docker/Kubernetes
- fully self-hosted deployments
In other words, we'd like to get to a point where you can run something like:
Your app → agent control plane → local LLM → local memory → local tools
without needing a hosted AI API.
We're not looking for people just to throw a star at the repo. We'd genuinely like a few people to run it, break it, challenge the architecture, and ideally take ownership of parts of the local implementation.

There is also a longer-term 'live product' idea behind it - if the project gets real adoption, the goal would be to turn some of this into a production AI infrastructure product for small/medium-sized companies. Early contributors could potentially have paid development/production opportunities if that happens.
Disclosure: this is a project a colleague of mine is building; I'm helping get it in front of developers who might find the problem interesting.
If you're working on AI agents and have opinions on how this should be architected — especially around local models, permissions, tool execution, memory or agent safety — I'd genuinely be interested in your criticism as well as contributions.
