About

This project aims to create a robust, intelligent AI Agent capable of automating various tasks. Our agent is designed following the PEAS (Performance measure, Environment, Actuators, Sensors) framework to ensure it's robust, scalable, and efficient.

Why Saiku?

"Saiku" (細工) in Japanese refers to detailed or delicate work, symbolizing the intricate and intelligent workings of our AI agent.

• S: Smart
• A: Artificial
• I: Intelligent
• K: Knowledgeable
• U: Unmatched

We chose a Japanese name to symbolize precision, innovation, and advanced technology, attributes highly respected in Japanese culture. Even though we are based in Tunisia, we believe in global collaboration and the universal appeal and understanding of technology.

What is PEAS?

PEAS stands for Performance measure, Environment, Actuators, and Sensors. It's a framework used to describe the various components of an intelligent agent:

• Performance Measure: How well is the agent doing in its environment
• Environment: Where the agent operates
• Actuators: What actions the agent can take
• Sensors: How the agent perceives its environment

Features

• Modular Design
• OpenAI GPT-4 Integration
• Extensible and Customizable

1. Using Saiku in Your Own Projects

Saiku is a versatile tool that enhances projects with advanced functionalities. This guide will help you integrate Saiku into your applications, covering the installation, configuration, and usage.

Installation

• Step: Run npm install saiku in your project directory to add Saiku as a dependency.

Usage

1. Importing Saiku

• Code:

  import Agent from 'saiku';

2. Initializing Saiku Agent

• Example:

  async function main(opts) {
    const agent = new Agent(opts); // Initialize the agent
    // Additional initialization code
  }

3. Configuring Saiku

• AgentOptions:

  • actionsPath (string | optional): Path to custom action scripts.
  • systemMessage (string | optional): Default system message or instructions.
  • allowCodeExecution (boolean | optional): Flag to enable/disable code execution.
  • interactive (boolean | string | optional): Interactive mode setting.
  • speech ('input' | 'output' | 'both' | 'none'): Configures speech functionality.
  • llm ('openai' | 'vertexai' | 'ollama' | 'huggingface'): Specifies the language learning model. Default is 'openai'.
  • [key: string]: any (optional): Allows additional custom properties for unique project requirements.

• Example Configuration:

  let opts = {
    actionsPath: "../actions",
    systemMessage: "Welcome to Saiku",
    allowCodeExecution: true,
    interactive: true,
    speech: "both",
    llm: "openai",
    // Custom options
  };

4. Interacting with Saiku

• Process:

  • Listening for User Input: Implement input mechanisms for user interaction.
  • Processing Queries: The agent processes and performs actions based on queries.
  • Generating Responses: Generates responses or results from actions.
  • Speaking Output: For speech-enabled applications, configure spoken output.

• Example Interaction:

  do {
    let userQuery = await getUserInput(); // Get user input
    agent.messages.push({ role: "user", content: userQuery });
  
    await agent.interact(); // Process and perform actions
    
    // Additional code
  } while (userQuery.toLowerCase() !== "quit");

2. Using the project itself

Usage

• Clone the Repository:

  git clone https://github.com/nooqta/saiku.git

• Navigate to Project Folder:

  cd saiku

• Install Dependencies:

  npm install

• Run the Project Locally:

Before starting Saiku locally, build the project using the following command:

npm run build

To start the agent:

npm start

For automated building during development, use:

npm run watch

This will automatically build the project whenever files are changed, helping streamline the development process.

3. Global Installation (Not Recommended Yet)

Saiku is available globally but is still in early development. Local installation is recommended.
