# HomeAgent
> **中文**: [README.md](./README.md)
An Agent framework designed around **separation of core domain and application domain**. The kernel enforces a zero-IO policy — all external interaction (WebUI, QQ, CLI, file operations, web search, memos, etc.) is handled by the plugin layer; the kernel performs no direct IO operations.
Combined with a **three-layer memory architecture** (Context → Document → Graph), it maintains contextual coherence across long-running single-conversation sessions through tiered storage and automated archival.
```go
homed (kernel, zero IO) PluginSDK plugins (all IO capabilities)
```
## Design Principles
**Separation of Core Domain and Application Domain** — The kernel's responsibilities are limited to LLM orchestration, memory management, and knowledge retrieval; all IO capabilities (message send/receive, file read/write, network requests, hardware interaction, etc.) are implemented by plugins. This separation defines domain boundaries at the Agent framework level, with distinct responsibility scopes for the kernel and plugins.
**Three-Layer Memory Architecture** — Manages information retention in long-running agents through a tiered storage strategy:
- **Context Layer**: Pretrained word embedding / TF-IDF fallback relevance-scored event window, protects last 10 entries, maintains topK context entries
- **Document Layer**: Temporary memory with automatic cold data sinking, also supports user-initiated submissions
- **Graph Layer**: SQLite graph database, persists entity relationships and semantic memory, supports distillation pipelines to extract triples from conversations

## Quick Start
```bash
make build build-cli
./build/homed -data /tmp/ha
```
```bash
# Interactive mode
./build/waiter
# Or single message
echo "Hello, remember that I like coffee" | ./build/waiter
```
API keys are configured via WebUI `http://localhost:8080` settings page, persisted in SQLite.

```
## Project Status
**v0.9.0** — C ABI v2: external plugin Stage callbacks can now write back (`invoke_stage` gained a result out-param; plugins may mutate RawMessage/LLMText/ToolResults etc. in OnInput/AfterToolcall/PostAction and have them synced to the core). ABI version now tracks core minor releases (v0.9.x → ABIVersion=2, `version_min=1` keeps old plugins loadable). Also fixes the tool-loop zen-compat placeholder that wrongly fired on first-turn system context tail. The SDK ships an enhanced sanitizer example (bad-UTF-8 / U+FFFD / ANSI-escape scrub across the whole pipeline).
**v0.8.0** — Core is functional, plugin system enhanced. 20+ built-in plugins. External plugin development via [homeagent-sdk](https://gitcode.com/JianFeeeee/homeagent-sdk) repo. Added input channel `NoMemory`/`Cleaner`, `ChannelDef`, plugin disable/enable system (CLI + WebUI), `plugindev` toolchain C ABI `ChannelDef` support.
