# Ouroboros [](https://github.com/razzant/ouroboros/stargazers) [](https://github.com/razzant/ouroboros/releases) [](https://ouroboros-agent.ai/) [](LICENSE) [](https://www.python.org/downloads/) [](https://github.com/razzant/ouroboros/releases) [](https://github.com/razzant/ouroboros/releases) [](https://github.com/razzant/ouroboros/releases) [](https://github.com/razzant/OuroborosHub) [](VERSION) Ouroboros is an open-source, general-purpose AI agent whose identity, durable memory, and history continue across tasks and restarts. It works on external projects, coordinates a live swarm of specialist agents, and can rewrite the implementation it runs on, including its code, architecture, prompts, tools, and dependencies. Reflection can also change how it understands itself without severing that continuity. It runs as a native desktop app or through a headless CLI. The runtime keeps its repository, durable memory, history, and interface on your machine, while model inference can use remote APIs you configure or a local GGUF model. ## Install ### macOS (Apple silicon) 1. Open the [latest stable release](https://github.com/razzant/ouroboros/releases/latest) and download `Ouroboros-<version>.dmg`. 2. Open the DMG and drag `Ouroboros.app` onto the **Applications** shortcut. 3. Open Ouroboros from Applications. If Gatekeeper asks, right-click the app and choose **Open**. <p align="center"> <img src="assets/install-macos.png" width="760" alt="Ouroboros DMG window with a large arrow from Ouroboros.app to the Applications shortcut and Install CLI.command below"> </p> Optional CLI: after the app is in Applications, double-click `Install CLI.command` in the mounted DMG. It creates a user-local `ouroboros` command without sudo. To run tasks, configure at least one supported remote provider API key or a local GGUF model. The first-run wizard guides model access, review policy, and budget setup. ### Linux and Windows - **Linux x86_64:** from the [latest stable release](https://github.com/razzant/ouroboros/releases/latest), download `Ouroboros-<version>-linux-x86_64.tar.gz`, extract it, and run `./Ouroboros/Ouroboros`. The optional CLI installer is `./Ouroboros/bin/install-ouroboros-cli`. - **Windows x64:** from the [latest stable release](https://github.com/razzant/ouroboros/releases/latest), download `Ouroboros-<version>-windows-x64.zip`, extract it, and run `Ouroboros\Ouroboros.exe`. The optional CLI installer is `Ouroboros\bin\install-ouroboros-cli.cmd`. Prerelease artifacts stay on their tag pages; `/releases/latest` points to the latest stable release. If bundled browser tools on Linux need host libraries, run `./Ouroboros/python-standalone/bin/python3 -m playwright install-deps chromium webkit`. See the [full install and verification guide](https://ouroboros-agent.ai/install/) for source setup and release proof files. --- Ouroboros first booted on February 16, 2026. During the following 48 hours, the repository advanced from the v4.1 line to v6.2.0. The self-authored record preserved from that period counts 32 evolution cycles. That first generation ran in Google Colab through Telegram and remains preserved on the [`legacy-google-colab`](http
