Skills are just Markdown

Drop a SKILL.md into your workspace. No runtime. No API surface. It just works.

โšก๏ธ

Multi-Provider Runtime

Claude today, Gemini tomorrow, your own model next week. Switch per-message.

๐ŸŒ

Channel Multiplexing

One local instance for Telegram, Discord, and QQ โ€” shared context, shared memory.

โฐ

Scheduled Runs

Set one-off or cron tasks, then let Yachiyo run them while you focus elsewhere.

๐Ÿ‘พ

Coding Agent Dispatch

Delegate to Claude Code or Codex through ACP, then bring it back into the thread.

Local-First Storage

Everything stays in SQLite under ~/.yachiyo/. No cloud. No telemetry.

๐Ÿ”

Browser-Backed Research

Search live sessions, read pages into Markdown, and keep what matters.

Why Yachiyo?

Because your assistant should be yours โ€” not a platform, not a marketplace, not a maze.

Yours, not a platform

Most AI clients want to become ecosystems. Yachiyo respects your privacy and gets out of your way.

No MCP. No marketplace.

Skills-only. No protocol maze, no plugin store, no vendor lock-in.

No telemetry

Your data never leaves your machine unless you send it. Local SQLite, local memory, local soul.

A living persona

SOUL.md and USER.md shape every interaction. She remembers, adapts, and grows alongside you.

โ€” Yachiyo
