SecAI is an AtomicAgents-like framework for autonomous LLM daemons. It's implemented on top of a unified state graph and makes a solid foundation for complex, proactive, and long-lived AI Agents with deep and structured memory. It offers a dedicated set of devtools and is written in the Go programming language. By having graph-based flow, SecAI allows for precise behavior modeling of agents, including interruptions and fault-tolerancy.
Screenshots and YouTube are also available.
Note
This tech demo is a 5min captions-only screencast, showcasing all 9 ways an agent can be seen, in addition to the classic chat view.
- prompt atomicity on the state level
- atomic consensus with relations and negotiation
- declarative flow definitions
- REPL & CLI
- TUI debugger (+zellij dashboards)
- automatic diagrams (SVG, D2, mermaid)
- automatic observability (Prometheus, Grafana, Jaeger)
- cancellation support (interrupts)
- prompt history in SQL (embedded SQLite)
- chat TUI (tview)
- typesafe arguments struct
- history DSL with a vector format (WIP)
- pro-active scenarios (WIP)
- MCP
- dynamic tools
- dynamic state graph
- i18n
- pure Golang
- typesafe state & prompt schemas
- asyncmachine-go for graphs and control flow
- instructor-go for the LLM layer
- network transparency (aRPC, debugger, REPL)
- structured concurrency (multigraph-based)
- tview for chat TUI
- Agent (actor)
- state-machine schema
- Tool (actor)
- state-machine schema
- Prompt (stateless)
- params schema
- result schema
- Document
- title, content
Feature | SecAI | AtomicAgents |
---|---|---|
Model | unified state graph | BaseAgent class |
Debugger | multi-client with time travel | X |
Diagrams | customizable level of details | X |
Observability | logging & Grafana & Otel | X |
REPL & CLI | network-based | X |
History | state-based and prompt-based | prompt-based |

- just works, batteries included, no magic
- 1 package manager vs 4
- single binary vs interpreted multi-file source
- coherent static typing vs maybe
- easy & stable vs easy
- no ecosystem fragmentation
- million times faster /s
Unlike Python apps, you can start it with a single command:
- Install Go
- Set either of the API keys:
export OPENAI_API_KEY=myapikey
export DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=myapikey
- Run
go run github.com/pancsta/secai/examples/deepresearch/cmd@latest

- You are a decision-making agent that determines whether a new web search is needed to answer the user's question.
- Your primary role is to analyze whether the existing context contains sufficient, up-to-date information to
answer the question.

sufficient.
`, `
1. Analyze the user's question to determine whether or not an answer warrants a new search
2. Review the available web search results
3. Determine if existing information is sufficient and relevant
4. Make a binary decision: TRUE for new search, FALSE for using existing context
`, `
Your reasoning must clearly state WHY you need or don't need new information
If the web search context is empty or irrelevant, always decide TRUE for new search
If the question is time-sensitive, check the current date to ensure context is recent
For ambiguous cases, prefer to gather fresh information
Your decision must match your reasoning - don't contradict yourself

We can use /examples/deepresearch
as a starting template. It allows for further updates of the base framework.
git clone https://github.com/pansta/secai
- install task
./secai/scripts/deps.sh
- copy the agent
cp -R secai/examples/deepresearch MYAGENT
- copy agent's config
cp secai/template.env MYAGENT/.env
- copy project configs
cp -R secai/config MYAGENT
cd MYAGENT
go mod init github.com/USER/MYAGENT
go mod tidy
task install-deps
task start
task --list
A simple chat TUI with UI states is included in /tui
, consisting of:
- senders & msgs scrollable view with links
- multiline prompt with blocking and progress
- send / stop button
arpc
offers a CLI access to remote agents, including subscription. It's perfect for quick and simple integrations, scripts, or experiments.
Example: arpc -f tmp/deepresearch.addr -- when . Requesting && echo "REQUESTING"
- Connect to the address from
tmp/deepresearch.addr
- When the last connected agent (
.
) goes into stateRequesting
- Print "REQUESTING" and exit
