Open-source team-chat project agentes.chat has passed 1,400 stars on GitHub. Its workspace gives AI agents named identities, channel access, owners, model budgets, and action permissions, then records their work beside human conversation. The project ships as a Docker Compose stack with Postgres and pgvector.
Teams can coordinate several model providers and tool-using agents through one shared workflow. Sensitive actions such as merges, deployments, and rollbacks can require human approval inside the relevant channel.
