Super Multica

Multiplexed Information & Computing Agent

An always-on AI agent that pulls real data, runs real computation, and takes real action — monitoring, analyzing, and acting within user-defined authorization boundaries.

See Memo for product vision, architecture, and roadmap.

Quick Start

pnpm install

Development

pnpm dev              # Desktop app (standalone, no Gateway needed)
pnpm dev:gateway      # Gateway only
pnpm dev:web          # Web app only
pnpm dev:all          # Gateway + Web

Local Full-Stack Development

pnpm dev:local starts the entire stack locally (Gateway + Desktop + Web) with isolated data directories, useful for end-to-end development and testing.

Setup:

  1. Copy .env.example to .env at the repo root
  2. Fill in TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN (get from @BotFather)
  3. Run pnpm dev:local

What it starts:

Service Address Notes
Gateway http://localhost:4000 Telegram long-polling mode
Web http://localhost:3000 OAuth login flow
Desktop Connects to local Gateway + Web

Data isolation: All data goes to ~/.super-multica-dev and ~/Documents/Multica-dev, separate from production ~/.super-multica.

Related commands:

pnpm dev:local:archive    # Archive dev data and start fresh

Architecture

Desktop App (standalone, recommended)
  └─ Hub (embedded)
     └─ Agent Engine

Web/Mobile Clients
  → Gateway (WebSocket, :3000)
    → Hub
      → Agent Engine
  • Desktop App: Electron app with embedded Hub, no Gateway needed
  • Gateway: WebSocket server for remote clients
  • Hub: Agent lifecycle and event distribution
