AgentFlux
AgentFlux is a free, open-source, self-hosted platform for building visual AI workflows and agents that run on your own computer or server with Docker, connect to local models such as Ollama or LM Studio, and keep documents, credentials and run logs local.
Why it matters
For small businesses and tinkerers who want n8n-style automations with AI but don't want their files going to a cloud service, it puts the workflow editor, agents and document store on a machine they control, paired with their own models.
Highlights
- Visual workflow editor with 17 preconfigured steps, eight templates, branching, undo/redo and JSON import and export.
- Agents take a task description, allowed sources and a model, and can run on demand or on a schedule.
- Imports PDF, DOCX, XLSX, CSV, JSON and text files; connects folders, HTTP endpoints and approved programs.
- Works with Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM and OpenAI-compatible endpoints; cloud model calls and outgoing HTTP POST steps need approval in Settings and in the workflow.
- The source code adds a video-to-workflow feature that turns a screen recording into editable steps, but the prebuilt v0.2.0 Docker image doesn't include it yet.
Taken from the project's own README, docs or launch page. Claims about speed or accuracy are the maker's unless stated otherwise.
Worth knowing: The README says AgentFlux has no login and is built for a single user, so it binds to localhost; sharing it needs your own access control. No model is included. It's a very new project (created October 27, 2026).
