Nano Bots API

The Nano Bots API leverages ruby-nano-bots to create an HTTP API, enabling you to integrate your Nano Bots through web requests.

Nano Bots are small, AI-powered bots that can be easily shared as a single file, designed to support multiple providers such as Anthropic Claude, Cohere Command, Google Gemini, Maritaca AI MariTalk, Mistral AI, Ollama, OpenAI ChatGPT, and others, with support for calling tools (functions).

Public API

This API is available for free as a public API at: https://api.nbots.io

It is used to power the following projects:

• Nano Bots for Sublime Text
• Nano Bots for Visual Studio Code
• Nano Bots for Obsidian
• Nano Bots Clinic (Live Editor)
• Nano Bots Marketplace

Running

Requirements:

build-essential libffi-dev libsodium-dev lua5.4-dev

git clone https://github.com/icebaker/nano-bots-api.git
cd nano-bots-api

Copy the .env.example file to .env and fill in the necessary data and run the server:

cp .env.example .env
bundle
./init.sh

Docker

git clone https://github.com/icebaker/nano-bots-api.git
cd nano-bots-api
./build.sh
cp docker-compose.example.yml docker-compose.yml # Provide your credentials.
docker-compose up -d
# http://localhost:3048

Security and Privacy

Read the Ruby Nano Bots documentation to learn about security and privacy features.

We strongly recommend that you define a NANO_BOTS_ENCRYPTION_PASSWORD to increase the security and privacy of your users.

Tools (Functions)

The API ensures that Tools (Functions) run in sandboxed mode when the environment variable FORCE_SANDBOXED is set to true. You may set it to false at your own risk. Learn more about what being sandboxed means in the Nano Bots specification.

Also, the API does not allow confirmable tools; as per the current implementation, it would block requests without being able to collect a confirmation answer from users.
