Introduction

Kyber

A personal AI assistant that actually works.

Kyber is a lightweight AI bot you can set up in 60 seconds and talk to from Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, or the command line. It doesn’t get stuck. It doesn’t take minutes to respond. It handles multiple conversations at once, runs tasks in the background, and stays out of your way.

Why Kyber

  • Fast setup — one command installs, configures, and runs
  • Never locks up — concurrent message handling means the bot keeps responding, even during long tasks
  • Background tasks — kick off complex work without blocking the conversation
  • Any provider — OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek, Groq, Zhipu, or your own vLLM endpoint
  • Chat where you are — Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Feishu out of the box
  • Built-in tools — web search, shell commands, GitHub, file I/O, and an extensible skills system
  • Runs anywhere — laptop, VPS, Raspberry Pi. Optional system service keeps it always on
  • Dashboard — secure local web UI for config and monitoring
  • Scheduled tasks — cron jobs and heartbeat for proactive check-ins

Quick install

curl -fsSL https://kyber.chat/install.sh | bash

This detects your OS, installs dependencies if needed, walks you through provider setup, writes your config, and optionally sets up system services.

Or install manually:

pipx install kyber-chat

Then head to Getting Started to configure and run.
