Inky is an Erlang/OTP-based intelligent agent designed for robust home automation, server monitoring, and custom hardware control.

Built with the resilience of the BEAM virtual machine, Inky aims to provide a more reliable and extensible alternative to projects, integrating directly with local Large Language Models (LLMs) via Ollama to handle complex instructions and decision-making.

Inky is not just another automation tool; it is a central nervous system for your environment:

• Home Automation: Intelligent control of lighting, climate, and appliances through natural language.
• Hardware Integration: Direct hooks into hardware control (GPIO, I2C, SPI) for custom electronics projects.
• Server Orchestration: Monitoring web services and managing server configurations through a conversational interface.
• Local Intelligence: Powered by Ollama (defaulting to Llama 3.2), ensuring your data and control logic stay local.

Inky is built on Erlang/OTP, leveraging its supervision trees and message-passing capabilities for high availability.

• inky: The core gen_server managing the Telegram bot interaction (via pe4kin).
• ollama_worker: Manages communication with a local Ollama instance, handling tool-calling and conversation history.
• Tool Dispatch: A flexible mechanism to map LLM tool calls to local Erlang functions or shell commands.

• OTP Application structure.
• Telegram Bot integration (Polling/Webhooks).
• Ollama integration with conversation history.
• Basic Tool Calling (Weather mock implementation).
• Direct Hardware Control (GPIO/I2C).
  • Using AtomVM to run on microcontrollers.
• Server Monitoring Hooks.
  • As an erlang node, doing live updating and HA

• Erlang/OTP 27+
• Rebar3
• Ollama running locally with llama3.2 (or your preferred model).
  • Probably can hook this directly into whatever model you want.

rebar3 compile

Copy the example configuration and add your Telegram bot token:

cp config/sys.config.example config/sys.config
# Edit config/sys.config with your bot name and token

rebar3 shell
