Why now: This entered the 2026-08-29 research corpus from GitHub and has enough source evidence to become a public Rabbit Hole story.
OpenBot reached 3,364 stars and 412 forks since its 2026-08-17 creation, MIT-licensed and pushed 2026-08-28. Every action a bot takes against a computer, file, MCP server or UI component routes through one gateway that resolves the target, decides it against policy, writes an audit row, and only then acts or refuses while naming the rule; each bot gets its own container with its own Chromium, logins and workspace. Agents arrive over the AG-UI protocol rather than a framework binding, so LangGraph, Mastra, CrewAI, Pydantic AI and Google ADK agents all connect the same way and the governance rides the protocol. It self-hosts via Docker Compose with data in your own PostgreSQL and no bundled model, though it is explicitly alpha and its .env.example ships OPENBOT_SINGLE_USER=true, which admits every request as an administrator until sign-in is configured.
