I just launched DollhouseMCP 2.0:
Lego blocks for AI customization

Use six composable element types: personas, skills, agents, templates, memories, ensembles.

No cloud required. Optional GitHub sync.
Community collection with 72 contributed elements.

Has a custom MCP protocol, MCP-AQL, which compresses 70 operations into ~4,000 tokens.

AGPL licensed MCP Server with free commercial license available.

Emerging like a cicada from my long dormancy to share something I've been working on:

<< OpenAlpheus >>

An open-source, self-hosted multi-agent harness intended for solo operators and small teams. AGPL copyleft license.

https://codeberg.org/merryshelly/openalpheus

What's different:

**You control the entire prompt.** Your agent doesn't read a single character you didn't put there. Identity, behavior, safety rules — all markdown files you edit. No code required.

**Full visibility.** Every tool call, every sub-agent dispatch, every thinking step surfaces in your chat history. No black boxes.

Talk to your agents from any ** Matrix client ** — phone, desktop, web. No bespoke UI to maintain or learn.

Session state is **plain text.** grep works. cat works. No database, no migrations, no query language. The unreasonable effectiveness of text files reigns supreme.

One-command install on Debian or Ubuntu.

ONLYOFFICE suspends its 8-year partnership with Nextcloud after the Euro-Office fork allegedly violated AGPL v3 licensing. ⚖️
OnlyOffice says no customers are affected, highlighting tensions around transparency, contributor rights, and software sovereignty. 🖥️

📢 Something important for the future of be-BOP is coming.

In roughly two weeks we're launching a crowdfunding campaign. We're not revealing what it's about just yet but we wanted our community to know first.

Full announcement + countdown:

Before the reveal, we just opened a brand new community space on Stoat an open-source alternative to Discord.
This is where the conversation will happen.

I knew the AGPL as a license that prohibits "storming off and making it a commercial offering".

The license that Redis and Elasticsearch should have used instead of fucking around with custom licenses when Amazon took their stuff, made paid offerings out of it and gave nothing back to them.

OnlyOffice's AGPL is limited by a phrase saying:

- You have to use the OnlyOffice logo if you fork it

...and another phrase that says

- You have no rights to use the OnlyOffice logo.

Apparently the AGPL inventor and the FSF side with Nextcloud on this.

OnlyOffice's AGPL isn't really opensource if it enforces crap like that.
