ENZO is an open-source, self-hostable AI platform that lets you chat with 300+ models across nine providers, build autonomous agents, run research and code-generation workflows, and manage provider keys locally. It installs in one step (docker compose up -d) or runs entirely in Google Colab; keys are kept encrypted in the browser vault (AES-256-GCM with a non-extractable WebCrypto key) so you pay providers directly with no vendor middleman or usage metering. A unified model marketplace shows live health, benchmarks and licenses; built-in surfaces include streaming chat, a marketplace, music player, agent builder, research loop, code-gen preview, and a wipeable vault. On first use a pasted live key "claims" the instance so server-side features unlock without extra config.
The agent builder drafts full operating manuals in two passes, races multiple candidate models from your providers (first reply wins) and records honest provenance of which model generated each component. Agents continuously learn from activity via a per-agent neural layer and inject a dynamic "neural focus" into runs. The project emphasizes security and reproducibility: CI runs seven pipeline stages including a black-box pentest with 44 assertions, ~298 unit and security tests, strict TypeScript (~44k lines) and documented threat models. Bundled assets include 74 injectable skills and domain playbooks to accelerate agent behavior.
