 **Latest release: [v0.3.0 - The Agency Release](https://github.com/HKUDS/nanobot/releases/tag/v0.3.0)**
 The Agency Release turns nanobot from a durable workbench into an agent runtime that can coordinate helpers, switch models per session, and carry authorized work through to completion.
 - Consult inline subagents without leaving the current task
 - Switch model presets per session directly from the composer
 - Start from a guided WebUI setup with clearer execution controls
 - Apply configuration changes live across a more reliable provider, channel, and tool runtime

 ## ☁️ Deploy
 **Render — one click**
 Deploy nanobot's gateway and bundled WebUI from the repository's ready-to-use Blueprint:
 [![Deploy to Render](https://render.com/images/deploy-to-render-button.svg)](https://render.com/deploy?repo=https://github.com/HKUDS/nanobot)
 Render will ask for `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` and a private `NANOBOT_WEB_TOKEN`, then provision persistent storage for sessions, memory, and WebUI history. Persistent disks require a paid Render service.
 **Self-host**

 🐈 nanobot stays lightweight by centering everything around a small agent loop: messages come in from chat apps, the LLM decides when tools are needed, and memory or skills are pulled in only as context instead of becoming a heavy orchestration layer. That keeps the core path readable and easy to extend, while still letting you add channels, tools, memory, and deployment options without turning the system into a monolith.

Typical fallback cases include timeouts, connection errors, 5xx server errors, 429 rate limits, overloads, authentication/permission failures such as invalid or expired credentials, and quota/balance exhaustion.

 ### First Deployment
 1. Click **Deploy to Render**, sign in, and review the Blueprint. It creates one Starter web service and a 1 GB persistent disk.
 2. Enter your `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`. Set `NANOBOT_WEB_TOKEN` to a new random value and save it in your password manager; this is the password for the public WebUI.
 3. Create the Blueprint and wait for the service status to become **Live**. The first build can take several minutes.
 4. Open the generated `onrender.com` URL. The **Authentication required** page means the gateway is running: enter the same `NANOBOT_WEB_TOKEN` value to open the WebUI.
 The model API key is used by nanobot to call Anthropic. The Web token only protects access to this deployment; do not share it in issues, screenshots, or chat.
 ### Updates and Data
 The Blueprint disables automatic deploys so upstream repository changes do not unexpectedly restart your agent. To update, open the service in the Render Dashboard and choose **Manual Deploy → Deploy latest commit**.
 The persistent disk keeps `config.json`, sessions, memory, WebUI history, cron state, media, and logs across restarts and updates. The deployment initializes `config.json` only when it does not already exist, so settings changed later in the WebUI are not replaced on every boot.
 If deployment fails, open the service **Logs** page first. A missing model key fails provider requests after startup, while an incorrect Web token leaves you on the authentication page.

 # Extension Authoring
 A native nanobot extension is a directory containing:
 ```text
 nanobot-review/
 ├── nanobot.extension.json
 └── extension.py
 ```
 The manifest describes identity, activation prerequisites, and requested
 permissions. The Python entry point performs the real registration. This keeps
 one authoritative source for tool, command, and hook ownership.
 ## Manifest
 ```json
 {
  "id": "acme.review",
  "name": "Acme Review",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "entry": "extension:register",
  "description": "Adds repository review tools.",
  "apiVersion": 1,
  "license": "MIT",
  "homepage": "https://github.com/acme/nanobot-review",
  "dependencies": [
    {
      "kind": "executable",
      "name": "git"
    }
  ],
  "permissions": [
    {
      "name": "workspace.read",
      "reason": "Read files selected for review."
    }
  ]
 }
 ```
 Required fields are `id`, `name`, and `version`. `entry` defaults to
 `"extension:register"` and `apiVersion` defaults to `1`.
 IDs use lowercase letters, digits, dots, underscores, and hyphens. Entry points
 use `module:function` syntax and must resolve inside the package.
 ### Dependencies
 | Kind | Meaning |
 |---|---|
 | `python` | Installed Python distribution; `specifier` accepts a version constraint |
 | `executable` | Command available on `PATH` |
 | `environment` | Non-empty environment variable |
 Set `"optional": true` when a missing dependency should not block activation.
 ### Permissions
 Permissions are lowercase namespaced identifiers chosen by the package, such
 as `workspace.read` or `network`. Give each permission a concrete reason.
 Activation waits until every requested permission is granted.
 The host currently uses permissions as explicit user consent. They do not
 sandbox Python code, so do not describe a permission as stronger isolation
 than it provides.
 ## Registration API
 The entry point receives `PythonExtensionApi` and must return `None`:
 ```python
 from typing import Any
 from nanobot.agent.tools.base import Tool
 class ReviewTool(Tool):
    @property
    def name(self) -> str:
        return "review_repository"
    @property
    def description(self) -> str:
        return "Review the current repository."
    @property
    def parameters(self) -> dict[str, Any]:
        return {"type": "object", "properties": {}}
    async def execute(self, **kwargs: Any) -> str:
        return "No findings."
 def register(api) -> None:
    api.register_tool(ReviewTool())
 ```
 The API has three stable methods:
 ```python
 api.register_tool(tool)
 api.register_command("review", handler)
 api.register_hook_factory(factory)
 ```
 Command handlers use nanobot's `CommandContext` and return an
 `OutboundMessage` or `None`. Hook factories receive `AgentTurnHookContext` and
 return an `AgentHook` or `None`.
 Do not modify `AgentLoop` or global registries directly. The API tags every
 registration with the extension ID so reload, failure rollback, and uninstall
 can remove exactly what the package owns.
 ## Collision and failure behavior
 Tool and command names are unique across core and active extensions. If an
 extension registers a duplicate name, activation fails for that extension and
 all of its partial registrations are rolled back.
 Missing dependencies are reported as diagnostics instead of crashing the
 gateway.
 ## Develop locally
 1. Create the manifest and entry module.
 2. Install the directory with `--kind local`.
 3. Inspect and grant its permissions.
 4. Trust it.
 5. Reinstall after editing so nanobot records a new integrity digest.
 ```bash
 nanobot extensions install "$PWD" --kind local
 nanobot extensions inspect acme.review
 nanobot extensions permissions acme.review workspace.read
 nanobot extensions trust acme.review
 ```
 Keep tests in the extension repository. At minimum, test registration,
 duplicate-name failure, and behavior when each required dependency is missing.
 ## Distribution
 Publish the directory in a Git repository. Users can pin a release tag or
 commit with `--ref`. The repository root must contain
 `nanobot.extension.json`; install scripts and generated compatibility manifests
 are not part of the native contract.

 # Extensions
 Extensions add native tools, slash commands, or lifecycle hooks without
 changing nanobot core. An extension is a Python package with one manifest and
 one registration entry point.
 Use an extension when a capability needs executable integration with nanobot.
 Use a [skill](./skills.md) when instructions alone are enough, an App when the
 agent should call an external CLI, and MCP when a service already exposes an
 MCP server.
 ## Install
 Install from a Git repository:
 ```bash
 nanobot extensions install https://github.com/acme/nanobot-review.git
 ```
 Install a local package while developing it:
 ```bash
 nanobot extensions install /absolute/path/to/nanobot-review --kind local
 ```
 Git installs may select a branch, tag, or commit:
 ```bash
 nanobot extensions install https://github.com/acme/nanobot-review.git \
  --ref v1.2.0
 ```
 The WebUI **Extensions** page exposes the same Git and local installation
 flows. Local paths are accepted only from a browser running on the nanobot
 host.
 ## Review before activation
 New packages are installed enabled but untrusted. They cannot execute until
 you review the manifest, grant every requested permission, and trust them:
 ```bash
 nanobot extensions inspect acme.review
 nanobot extensions permissions acme.review workspace.read
 nanobot extensions trust acme.review
 ```
 Use `list` to check the result:
 ```bash
 nanobot extensions list
 ```
 Disable, untrust, or remove a package at any time:
 ```bash
 nanobot extensions disable acme.review
 nanobot extensions untrust acme.review
 nanobot extensions uninstall acme.review
 ```
 Changes made in the WebUI reload its gateway extension host immediately.
 Changes made by the standalone CLI take effect the next time the gateway or
 agent process starts. Failed registrations are rolled back and reported as
 diagnostics.
 ## Safety model
 Extensions are executable Python code. nanobot provides these controls:
 - packages are copied into `~/.nanobot/extensions/` with an integrity digest;
 - package symlinks and special files are rejected;
 - installation, permission grants, trust, and activation are separate steps;
 - changed package contents invalidate trust;
 - registration is transactional, so a failed extension does not leave tools,
  commands, or hooks behind;
 - remote WebUI clients cannot grant trust or permissions.
 Permission declarations are consent gates, not an operating-system sandbox.
 Only install code you are willing to run with the same account as nanobot.
 ## Package compatibility
 The core runtime intentionally executes only the native nanobot Python
 contract. Pi and OpenClaw packages are not loaded directly. Compatibility
 adapters can be distributed as separate nanobot extensions later without
 adding JavaScript runtimes or package-market policy to the agent core.
 See [Extension Authoring](./extension-authoring.md) to build a package.

 - Gateway providers such as OpenRouter and AiHubMix can route many model families, so the model name must be valid for that gateway.

 ### Host integration context and persisted-turn callbacks
 Host applications can attach external context without copying or modifying the
 nanobot agent loop. A context provider receives a `RequestContext` before each
 model turn and may return one or more `RuntimeContextBlock` values. Use
 `attributes` for caller-owned routing data; nanobot keeps it separate from
 trusted channel metadata and does not persist it in session messages.
 `on_session_turn_persisted()` invokes its callback after a non-ephemeral turn
 has been saved. The callback receives `SessionTurnPersisted` and may read the
 completed transcript through `bot.sessions`. Callbacks run in registration
 order, and async callbacks are awaited before the run continues. They are
 observational: callback exceptions are logged and suppressed so the completed
 local turn remains successful. Durable external synchronization must catch
 failures and persist retry work before the callback returns. During SDK runs,
 callbacks execute while the session is still serialized and must not re-enter
 `bot.run()` for the same session.
