nexent

 [](README.md) [](README_CN.md) Nexent is an open-source agent SDK and platform that transforms natural language describing processes into complete multimodal services—without orchestration and complex drag-and-drop. Built on the MCP tool ecosystem, Nexent offers flexible model integration, scalable data processing, and robust knowledge base management. Our goal is simple: to integrate data, models, and tools into an intelligent hub, allowing anyone to easily incorporate Nexent into their projects, making daily workflows smarter and more interconnected. > One prompt, infinite possibilities. https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a72421fe-dfc0-4c49-b8c6-e3b44d19b049 # 🤝 Join Our Community > *If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together.* We are still in the initial open-source phase, aiming to release the stable version of Nexent v1 by **June 2025**. Until then, we will continue to rapidly release core features—we look forward to your participation: * **🗺️ Check out our [Feature Roadmap](https://github.com/orgs/nexent-hub/projects/2/views/1)** to explore current and upcoming features. * **🔍 Try the current version** and leave your thoughts or report bugs in the [issue tracker](https://github.com/nexent-hub/nexent/issues). > *Rome wasn't built in a day.* While many key features are still under active development, if our vision resonates with you, please join us through the **[Contribution Guidelines](CONTRIBUTING_CN.md)** to help shape Nexent.

Nexent can automatically select the right tools based on your needs and plan the best execution path for each request.  `2` **Scalable Data Processing Engine** Supports fast OCR and table structure extraction for 20+ data formats, smoothly scaling from single-process to large-scale batch processing pipelines.  `3` **Personal Knowledge Base** Real-time file import and automatic summarization allow agents to access personal and global knowledge instantly, understanding what each knowledge base can provide.  `4` **Internet Knowledge Search** Connects to 5+ web search providers, enabling agents to combine the latest internet information with your private data.  `5` **Knowledge Traceability** Provides precise citations from web and knowledge base sources, making every fact verifiable.  `6` **Multimodal Understanding and Dialogue** Speak, type, upload files, or display images. Nexent understands voice, text, and images, and can even generate new images as needed.  `7` **MCP Tool Ecosystem** Insert or build Python plugins that comply with MCP specifications; swap models, tools, and chains without modifying core code.  # 🐛 Known Issues 1. 🔄 **Knowledge Base Refresh Delay** We are aware that the knowledge base refresh mechanism currently has some delays, occasional errors, or refresh failures. We plan to refactor this part soon, but please note that this is merely a logical issue in task management, and the actual data processing speed is unaffected. 2. 🤖 **Limited Model Provider Support** Our current support for different model providers, including voice and multimodal models, is limited. We will rapidly update this support in the coming weeks, so stay tuned! 3. 🎨 **Lack of Agent Creation and Configuration Interface** We have noticed that there is currently no visual interface for agent creation, tool selection, and configuration. We plan to implement this feature in the coming weeks to make the agent creation process more intuitive and user-friendly. 4. 📦 **Large Docker Image Size** We have noticed that the current Docker image size is large due to the inclusion of middleware components from the development process. We are actively optimizing and reducing the image size to enable faster and lighter deployments. # 👥 Contribution Guidelines We welcome all forms of contributions!
