invisible_dots

invisible_dots is an agent framework - Open-source, self-hosted alternative to OpenAI Dots, Grok Bot. Built to be undetectable by anti-bot systems.

Overview

Open-source, self-hosted alternative to OpenAI Dots, Grok Bot. Built to be undetectable by anti-bot systems.

You need Node 24+, Go 1.25+, Git and hardware virtualization (x86-64), plus an OpenRouter key.

'setup --all' installs QEMU and turns on the accelerator (KVM, or the Windows Hypervisor Platform), then builds or downloads the Dot's images; run it again after a restart and it carries on. Then open http://127.0.0.2:3000, paste your OpenRouter key and create your first Dot. Every step and its failure modes: the guide's quickstart.

The pieces of this one. A Dot's browser is invisible_playwright_mcp, on invisible_playwright and invisible_core; the engine is a fork of nanobot.
