AI assistant platform

claude-gentic

A personal AI assistant you talk to over Telegram or a web panel. It remembers, runs scheduled work, and hands bigger jobs to specialist agents working in parallel.

Node.js
TypeScript
React
SQLite
Claude Agent SDK

Desktop chat planning a Lisbon team offsite: the assistant is working for 1:37, and the Activity panel shows a WebFetch call, two background agents (researcher and analyst) with their current tools, and one finished flights agent. — Ask once, and the assistant splits the work across specialist agents running side by side. The live panel shows each one as it works.

The challenge

A genuinely useful assistant needs more than a chat box: it has to remember context, act on a schedule, use real tools safely, and take on jobs too big for a single conversation.

What we built

A self-hosted platform on the Claude Agent SDK with a Telegram bot and a web control panel, long-term memory in plain markdown, scheduled tasks, a team of specialist agents that work side by side with a live activity view, skills for everyday jobs, and a secrets vault that never sends values to the browser.

Highlights

Specialist agents work in parallel, with a live view of each one
One assistant and one memory across Telegram and the web panel
Long-term memory as plain markdown you can read and edit
Scheduled briefings, reports and invoicing delivered to Telegram
Skills for briefings, research, drafting and task tracking
A secrets vault and allow-listed access; runs as a background service that keeps itself up to date

Screens from claude-gentic

Agents page with eleven agent cards such as analyst, cto, designer, researcher and writer, each tagged with its model (opus or sonnet) and a short description. — A team of specialists: researcher, analyst, writer, designer, developers and QA, each set up with its own model and tools.

Skills page with 18 installed skills in a card grid, such as /brainstorm, /daily-briefing, /draft-message and /quick-research, filterable by category. — Skills cover the everyday jobs, like briefings, research, drafting and task tracking. Run any of them with a slash.

Schedule page listing five tasks (Morning briefing, Weekly studio report, Competitor pricing watch, Monthly invoicing and a paused Inbox zero nudge) with their next run times and recent successful runs. — Scheduled work: a weekday briefing, a weekly report and monthly invoicing run on their own and arrive in Telegram.

Edit task panel for Morning briefing: the prompt, a Weekdays preset at 07:30, time zone Europe/Amsterdam, a Telegram chat id for delivery and the next three runs. — Plain-language scheduling: pick a preset or write cron, and see the next runs before you save.

Long-term memory as plain markdown files: who you are, how you like things done, and what’s still open.

History page with a search for Lisbon: 4 matches in 2 sessions, and the Lisbon studio offsite conversation open with the matches highlighted. — Search across every conversation and jump straight to the match.

Secrets page listing seven masked entries, such as GITHUB_TOKEN, LINEAR_API_KEY and NOTION_MCP_TOKEN, with category tags and quick-add buttons. — A secrets vault for API keys and tokens. Values are never shown or sent to the browser.

Channels page showing a connected Telegram bot with one allowed user, a masked bot token and a completed four-step setup guide. — Connect a Telegram bot in four steps, and only allow-listed users can talk to it.

System page showing the service running for 3 days, the claude-gentic and Claude Code runtime versions, and an update log with an automatic SDK update, typecheck and restart. — Runs as a background service on a Mac and keeps its Claude runtime up to date by itself.

Phone chat view of the Lisbon offsite conversation, with an amber bar above the composer reading 2 agents, 4 tools running. — The same conversation on a phone, with a live bar showing agents and tools at work.

Phone bottom sheet titled Current turn 1:37, listing two running background agents with their tools and a finished researcher agent’s summary, plus Close and Stop turn buttons. — Tap the bar to see each agent’s task and progress, and stop the turn if needed.

Phone navigation drawer with a grid of nine pages (Chat, History, Skills, Agents, Memory, Schedule, Channels, Secrets, System) and the list of recent sessions. — Every page and conversation is one tap away on mobile.

Phone view of a Telegram conversation in the web panel: a morning briefing, a reminder set for a client call and a train-status check. — Conversations from Telegram show up in the panel too: one assistant, one memory, two ways in.

Phone Skills page with category filters and cards for /brainstorm, /context-health and /daily-briefing. — Skills browse and filter just as well on a phone.

Phone Schedule page with toggles for the Morning briefing, Weekly studio report, Competitor pricing watch and Monthly invoicing tasks. — Pause, run or edit any scheduled task from your phone.

Phone editor showing pending-tasks.md with open tasks: the Lisbon offsite, a proposal follow-up and a domain renewal. — Edit what the assistant remembers from anywhere.

Phone Secrets page with masked values for FIGMA_ACCESS_TOKEN, GITHUB_TOKEN, LINEAR_API_KEY and MASTODON_TOKEN. — The vault on a phone, still fully masked.
