- Skills: on-demand knowledge documents loaded at runtime.
- Sub-agents for delegation with isolated context and token budgets.
- Remote execution in sandboxed containers.
- Self-hosted with SQLite, no external dependencies required.
Install via the curl script or Homebrew, then run distri serve to start the server and web UI on port 7777 (default). Use distri run <agent> --task "..." to execute built-in or custom agents, or define agents in markdown files and push them to Distri Cloud.

Why Distri
- Agents as markdown — Define behavior, tools, and model settings in a single .md file with TOML frontmatter
- Built-in tool system — Builtins (search, shell, browser), dynamic HTTP tools, external client-side tools, and MCP support
- Skills — On-demand knowledge documents agents load at runtime via load_skill, with automatic re-injection after context compaction
- Sub-agents — Agents delegate to specialized child agents with isolated context and token budgets
- Remote execution — Run agents in sandboxed containers for untrusted code or resource isolation
- React SDK — Drop-in <Chat /> component with streaming, tool renderers, voice, and developer mode
- A2A compatible — Implements the A2A protocol for agent discovery and invocation
- Self-hosted — Run on your own infrastructure with SQLite. No external dependencies required.
