**CongaLine** is a self-hosted platform for deploying and managing fleets of isolated AI agents, each running in separate Docker containers with their own networks, secrets, and identities.
Key features include:
• **Pluggable runtimes** - Choose between **OpenClaw** (Node.js) or **Hermes** (Python) agents per deployment • **Multi-channel support** - Connect agents to **Slack** and **Telegram** with dedicated routers for each platform • **Flexible deployment** - Deploy on local Docker, remote SSH hosts (VPS, Raspberry Pi), or AWS infrastructure • **Agent isolation** - Each agent runs in separate containers with individual configurations and secrets • **CLI management** - Single command-line interface for setup, user management, policies, and channel configuration • **Bootstrap deployment** - One-command setup from YAML manifests with environment variables for secrets
The platform supports both individual user agents (DM-only) and team agents (channel-based), with optional web UI access and comprehensive policy management for egress rules and security posture.
We built CongaLine to solve a specific problem: give teams and individuals self-hosted AI assistants without collapsing everyone into a shared instance. Each agent runs in its own Docker container with isolated networks, secrets, and config. Security is the primary design constraint. Three deployment targets via a single Go CLI (conga): - Local: Docker Desktop, no cloud required - Remote: any SSH-accessible Linux host (VPS, Raspberry Pi, bare metal) - AWS: zero-ingress via SSM, no inbound ports
Channels are optional. Every agent gets a web UI via SSH/SSM tunnel. Slack and Telegram are both supported, each with a dedicated router container that fans events to per-agent containers. Two agent types: user agents (DM-based) and team agents (channel-based). The name is literal: spiny lobsters travel in single-file conga lines during seasonal migration, in physical contact, reducing drag and sharing protection. A procession of isolated-but-coordinated agents. Apache 2.0. Repo has Terraform for AWS, a Go CLI, and a Node.js Slack router. Would love feedback on the provider abstraction. We're planning Kubernetes and GCP next. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47696273 Points: 1 # Comments: 0
