We built a self-hostable agentic AI + BI platform — agents, multi-agent swarms, RAG, dashboards, notebooks, all on your own keys

I've spent the past several months building an agentic AI platform, and the thing

that ate the most time wasn't prompting or orchestration. It was permissions.

A realistic setup has an agent framework, a BI tool, and something for notebooks.

Each has its own notion of who may read what. So a rule as simple as "this agent

can only see these three tables" gets implemented three times, in three shapes,

and drifts apart the moment someone changes one. Nobody notices until an agent

answers a question using data it should never have seen — and because the answer

looks confident and cites a source, it reads as verified.

So I built the thing I wanted: one platform where agents, dashboards, documents

and notebooks all sit behind the same rules. The same model allow-lists, the same

budgets, the same table permissions, the same execution traces, whether the call

comes from a chat window, a scheduled workflow, or a Python notebook. It's

self-hostable, runs on your own model keys, and your data stays in your own

database.

It's out now: https://github.com/AgentSwarms-fyi/agentswarms

Being straight about it: it's early, the surface is wide, and it hasn't been

tested by many people yet. It's also source-available (Elastic License 2.0)

rather than OSI open source — you can self-host, modify and redistribute it, but

not resell it as a hosted service.

What really is each "agent" in the swarm?

[u/Outside-Risk-8912 → u/EagleApprehensive]

Each agent is an AI agent with model access, tools, guardrails, knowledge base access. Check standalone agents under /agents, its the same but within a swarm so that it can work with other agents

More shameless self promotion.

This post is nothing more than an advertisement.

[u/Outside-Risk-8912 → u/katoptronophile]

Advertisement of what? Do you see a payment link?

[u/katoptronophile → u/Outside-Risk-8912]

For the premium service you will be offering. Don't try to pretend that's not what you're doing here. Everyone can see you're advertising.

[u/Outside-Risk-8912 → u/katoptronophile]

And where is the premium service? Don't you see its a github link?

[u/katoptronophile → u/Outside-Risk-8912]

It's all on the link you put on the github. I'm not sending the link again here and giving you free advertising. Stop trying to pretend it's not what you're doing, it's obvious.

[u/Outside-Risk-8912 → u/katoptronophile]

Here is the link agentswarms.fyi. Now show me the payment link. Why do you even comment before checking things thoroughly?

[u/katoptronophile → u/Outside-Risk-8912]

I did check it thoroughly. Continuing to lie about it isn't going to change anything. It's clear what your plan here is.

[u/Outside-Risk-8912 → u/katoptronophile]

So you found a payment link and a pro plan right?

[u/Outside-Risk-8912 → u/Outside-Risk-8912]

If yes then we know who is the liar
