Open-Source AI Agents

The open-source AI agents and agent frameworks people run themselves, in one table: what each one is, its licence and language, where it runs, and its GitHub stars, open issues and last push, fetched live from GitHub when the page opens. The descriptions and licences were read by hand on October 6, 2026.

How the Live Columns Work

When the page opens, your browser asks GitHub's public API for the listed projects in a single request. If GitHub answers, the stars, open issues and last push update and the marker above the table turns green with the time. If it does not answer, for example because too many requests came from your network in the last minute, the table keeps the snapshot and says so. The latest release comes from the snapshot, dated above.

The request carries nothing you typed and no Nameryn identifier. The privacy page names every service a Nameryn page talks to.

Picking One

Read the licence before you build a product on one: a few, such as Dify and part of AutoGPT, add conditions to a standard open-source licence. Once you have picked one, the AI agent name generator and the persona card give it a name and the files it reads to know who it is.

FAQ

Where do the numbers come from?

Stars, open issues and the last push come from GitHub's public API when the page opens, in one request your browser makes straight to GitHub. The latest release and everything else is from the snapshot date shown above the table.

Why does the open issues count look high?

GitHub counts open pull requests as issues in this number, so busy projects show more than their issue tracker alone.

Does Nameryn send anything about me to GitHub?

No. The request asks only for the public numbers of the listed projects. It carries nothing you typed and no Nameryn identifier; GitHub sees an ordinary request from your browser.

How are projects chosen?

Open-source agents and agent frameworks that people use widely, with a public repository and a licence that lets you run them yourself. The list is read by hand; suggest one through the about page.
