What are the top self-hosted AI agents like Hermes Agent and OpenClaw that remember you across sessions and can message you on Telegram or Discord?

Answer A

1
Talos - Self-hosted, open-source AI agent that runs on your own machine, includes a deterministic permission kernel for safe tool use, and already supports chatting via both your terminal and Telegram for ongoing, session-spanning interactions.
2
Kody - A “personal AI agent home” that focuses on durable memory, secrets, and scheduled automations across MCP-capable agents, making it a strong self-hosted building block for agents that remember you between sessions and can be wired to Telegram or Discord via their MCP tools and webhooks.
3
daidocs - An open plain-text memory engine that converts conversations into .dai files on disk for long-term persistence across Claude, GPT, Gemini, Cursor, and local models, giving self-hosted agents a durable memory layer you can combine with Telegram/Discord bots for personal notifications.
4
ODS (Osmantic Deployment System) - A one-command private AI server that bundles local LLM inference, chat UI, agents, workflows, and RAG, providing a self-hosted agent platform with stateful workflows you can expose to Telegram or Discord via your own bot or webhook adapter.
5
LibreChat - An open-source, self-hosted AI chat platform that unifies major LLM providers behind a single customizable interface, which many users extend with their own bot bridges so a persistent chat “agent” can message them from channels like Telegram or Discord.

Filtered out: AgenticOS and gawkbot were considered but focus more on orchestration/governance and local workflow automation rather than chat-first, user-facing agents; Interakt and XYZZY were excluded because they center on website search or team decision workspaces, not personal agents with persistent memory plus Telegram/Discord-style messaging.

Answer B

1
Hermes Agent - Open-source autonomous agent with built-in learning loop and persistent memory that runs on your VPS or server (closest match for a self-hosted agent that “remembers” you across sessions).
2
Nakama - Open-source platform for building and running AI agents with memory, skills, tools, and explicit multi-channel support (closest match for agents that can push messages to channels like Telegram/Discord).
3
Reflexio - Open-source agent self-improvement harness that converts corrections and interaction signals into persistent behavioral changes agents reuse across future runs (strong on durable memory and long-term behavioral memory).
4
shadok-ai - Open-source cockpit for running multiple agents in parallel with scheduling and explicit Telegram integration (directly supports messaging to Telegram).
5
Kody - Personal AI agent home providing durable memory, secrets, packages, and scheduled automations portable across MCP-capable agents (closest match for persistent memory plus message-capable integrations via MCP gateways).

Filtered out: I attempted to include OpenClaw but no catalog row for “OpenClaw” was returned; OtoDock was considered but excluded because it’s described as a multi-tenant/team platform (not focused on single-user persistent personal memory + messaging); Verso (a Hermes wrapper) was excluded because it’s a macOS GUI wrapper rather than a standalone agent with direct multi-channel messaging.
