Clone & Install ```bash git clone https://github.com/THU-MAIC/OpenMAIC.git cd OpenMAIC pnpm install ``` ### 2. Configure ```bash cp .env.example .env.local ``` Fill in at least one LLM provider key: ```env OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-... AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=... AZURE_OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://YOUR-RESOURCE.openai.azure.com/openai AZURE_OPENAI_MODELS=YOUR-DEPLOYMENT-NAME ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-... GOOGLE_API_KEY=... GROK_API_KEY=xai-... OPENROUTER_API_KEY=sk-or-... TENCENT_API_KEY=sk-... XIAOMI_API_KEY=... # Or configure Amazon Bedrock with AWS credentials and BEDROCK_REGION. ``` You can also configure providers via `server-providers.yml`: ```yaml providers: openai: apiKey: sk-... azure: apiKey: ... baseUrl: https://YOUR-RESOURCE.openai.azure.com/openai models: - YOUR-DEPLOYMENT-NAME anthropic: apiKey: sk-ant-... bedrock: models: - us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-5 - us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8 ``` Supported providers: **OpenAI**, **Azure OpenAI**, **Anthropic**, **Amazon Bedrock**, **Google Gemini**, **DeepSeek**, **Qwen**, **Kimi**, **MiniMax**, **Grok (xAI)**, **OpenRouter**, **Doubao**, **Tencent Hunyuan/TokenHub**, **Xiaomi MiMo**, **GLM (Zhipu)**, **Ollama** (local), **Lemonade** (local LLM / image / TTS / ASR), **FunASR** (local ASR), and any OpenAI-compatible API. Amazon Bedrock quick example: ```env BEDROCK_REGION=us-east-1 BEDROCK_MODELS=us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-5,us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8 DEFAULT_MODEL=bedrock:us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-5 ``` Bedrock uses AWS environment credentials or the AWS SDK credential provider chain. For temporary credentials, set `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, and `AWS_SESSION_TOKEN`, or use an AWS profile / role available to the runtime. ### Optional: Lemonade (Local AI Provider) OpenMAIC supports Lemonade as a local, OpenAI-compatible provider for LLMs, image generation, TTS, and ASR. No API key is required. Run Lemonade locally, then point OpenMAIC to it: ```env LEMONADE_BASE_URL=http://localhost:13305/v1 TTS_LEMONADE_BASE_URL=http://localhost:13305/v1 ASR_LEMONADE_BASE_URL=http://localhost:13305/v1 IMAGE_LEMONADE_BASE_URL=http://localhost:13305/v1 ``` ### Optional: FunASR (Local Speech Recognition) OpenMAIC can transcribe locally through FunASR's OpenAI-compatible server. The built-in provider supports SenseVoiceSmall, Paraformer, and Fun-ASR-Nano and requires no API key. ```bash python -m pip install torch torchaudio python -m pip install "funasr==1.4.0" fastapi uvicorn python-multipart # Add vLLM for Fun-ASR-Nano on NVIDIA GPUs python -m pip install vllm funasr-server --device cuda --model fun-asr-nano ``` Point OpenMAIC at the server: ```env ASR_FUNASR_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8000/v1 ``` Use `funasr-server --device cpu --model sensevoice` for a CPU-only setup. See the [FunASR deployment guide](https://github.com/modelscope/FunASR#deploy) for production options. ### Optional: Local Audio and Video Extraction OpenMAIC can extract timestamped transcripts and prepared video keyframes locally. Install the system `ffmpeg` package so both `ffmpeg` and `ffprobe` are executable on `PATH`, then configure one server ASR provider (for example FunASR, Lemonade, or OpenAI) using the variables above. The application resolves the executables at extraction time; ffmpeg is not an npm dependency and is not required to start or use OpenMAIC. If the executables are unavailable, the local extractor is skipped. A configured AliDocMind provider remains available as the cloud extraction path. When neither local ffmpeg extraction nor AliDocMind is available, audio/video materials are marked failed with an actionable setup message instead of hanging or completing with an empty transcript. OpenAI quick example: ```env OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-... DEFAULT_MODEL=openai:gpt-5.5 ``` MiniMax quick examples: ```env MINIMAX_API_KEY=... MINIMAX_BASE_URL=https://api.minimaxi.com/anthropic/v1 DEFAULT_MODEL=minimax:MiniMax-M2.7-highspeed TTS_MINIMAX_API_KEY=... TTS_MINIMAX_BASE_URL=https://api.minimaxi.com IMAGE_MINIMAX_API_KEY=... IMAGE_MINIMAX_BASE_URL=https://api.minimaxi.com IMAGE_OPENAI_API_KEY=... IMAGE_OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.openai.com/v1 VIDEO_MINIMAX_API_KEY=... VIDEO_MINIMAX_BASE_URL=https://api.minimaxi.com ``` Xiaomi MiMo Token Plan quick example: ```env MIMO_API_KEY=tp-... MIMO_BASE_URL=https://token-plan-cn.xiaomimimo.com/v1 DEFAULT_MODEL=xiaomi:mimo-v2.5-pro ``` Use `https://token-plan-sgp.xiaomimimo.com/v1` or `https://token-plan-ams.xiaomimimo.com/v1` for the Singapore or Europe Token Plan clusters. GLM (Zhipu) quick examples: ```env # China (default) GLM_API_KEY=... GLM_BASE_URL=https://open.bigmodel.cn/api/paas/v4 # International (z.ai) GLM_API_KEY=... GLM_BASE_URL=https://api.z.ai/api/paas/v4 DEFAULT_MODEL=glm:glm-5.1 ``` > **Recommended model:** **Gemini 3 Flash** — best balance of quality and speed. For highest quality (at slower speed), try **Gemini 3.1 Pro**. > > If you want OpenMAIC server APIs to use Gemini by default, also set `DEFAULT_MODEL=google:gemini-3-flash-preview`. > > If you want to use MiniMax as the default server model, set `DEFAULT_MODEL=minimax:MiniMax-M2.7-highspeed`. ### 3. Run ```bash pnpm dev ``` Open **http://localhost:3000** and start learning! ### 4. Build for Production ```bash pnpm build && pnpm start ``` ### Optional: ACCESS_CODE (Shared Deployments) To protect your deployment with a site-level password, set `ACCESS_CODE` in `.env.local`: ```env ACCESS_CODE=your-secret-code ``` When set, visitors see a password prompt before accessing the app. All API routes are also protected. If not set, the app works as before. ### Vercel Deployment [![Deploy with Vercel](https://vercel.com/button)](https://vercel.com/new/clone?repository-url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FTHU-MAIC%2FOpenMAIC&envDescription=Configure%20at%20least%20one%20LLM%20provider%20API%20key%20(e.g.%20OPENAI_API_KEY%2C%20ANTHROPIC_API_KEY).%20All%20providers%20are%20optional.&envLink=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FTHU-MAIC%2FOpenMAIC%2Fblob%2Fmain%2F.env.example&project-name=openmaic&framework=nextjs) Or manually: 1. Fork this repository 2. Import into [Vercel](https://vercel.com/new) 3. Set environment variables (at minimum one LLM API key) 4. Deploy ### Docker Deployment ```bash cp .env.example .env.local # Edit .env.local with your API keys, then: docker compose up --build ``` #### Slow-network / China build acceleration Docker builds support two optional build arguments. Both are empty by default, so the standard command above keeps using the upstream Alpine and npm registries. - `ALPINE_MIRROR` is an Alpine mirror hostname without `https://`. - `NPM_REGISTRY` is a complete npm registry URL. Use public mirror endpoints only. Do not embed usernames, passwords, or access tokens in these build arguments because Docker may record them in image metadata or build provenance. With Docker Compose: ```bash ALPINE_MIRROR=mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn \ NPM_REGISTRY=https://registry.npmmirror.com \ docker compose up --build ``` For a direct image build: ```bash docker build \ --build-arg ALPINE_MIRROR=mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn \ --build-arg NPM_REGISTRY=https://registry.npmmirror.com \ -t openmaic:local . ``` These arguments do not accelerate Docker Hub pulls, including the Dockerfile frontend and the `node:22-alpine` base image. Configure a Docker daemon registry mirror separately if those pulls are slow. The pnpm store cache is reused by the same BuildKit builder across builds, subject to normal cache garbage collection; the cache only improves performance and is not required for a correct build. ### Server-backed persistence (PostgreSQL) The `server-persistence` profile runs exactly two containers: the OpenMAIC app and PostgreSQL. The persistence HTTP server is embedded in the app at `/api/persistence`; there is no standalone persistence service. ```bash cp .env.example .env.local printf '\nDATABASE_URL=postgres://openmaic:openmaic-dev@postgres:5432/openmaic\nPERSISTENCE_DEV_TOKEN=openmaic-local-dev\n' >> .env.local NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE=1 NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE_TOKEN=openmaic-local-dev docker compose --profile server-persistence up --build ``` Add your provider API keys to `.env.local` as usual. Runtime sessions and course documents become server-backed; device-scoped KV data (including the anonymous device learner key and playback position) remains in the browser. Existing browser course data is copied into the configured server store lazily, one course at a time when it is first accessed, using the same verified migration path as browser persistence. `NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE` is a **build-time switch** compiled into the browser bundle. A build with it enabled must be deployed with a working runtime `DATABASE_URL` and `PERSISTENCE_DEV_TOKEN`, while `NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE_TOKEN` must match that server token at build time. Otherwise the browser selects HTTP persistence but the embedded endpoint returns configuration/authentication/initialization errors; the home page shows a persistence-unavailable toast and keeps the prior course list instead of misleadingly displaying an empty library. `PERSISTENCE_DEV_TOKEN` and `NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE_TOKEN` are **not a secret in any meaningful sense**: the `NEXT_PUBLIC_` token is compiled into the public JavaScript bundle, fully visible to every visitor, and therefore provides **no confidentiality and no user isolation whatsoever** — anyone who can load the page can extract it and read or write **every** learner partition and **all** documents by choosing an `x-learner-key`. Its only purpose is to keep unrelated network scanners out of an endpoint on a trusted network. This is suitable only for localhost or trusted-network, single-user deployments. Before production, replace [`lib/persistence/server-auth.ts`](lib/persistence/server-auth.ts) with real session verification that derives the learner partition from server-controlled identity, and change the document/merge/admin authorization policies as appropriate. `PERSISTENCE_POSTGRES_PASSWORD` initializes the PostgreSQL role only when the data directory is empty; changing it later does not rotate an existing `openmaic-postgres` volume. For a disposable local database, run `docker compose --profile server-persistence down -v`, set the new password and matching `DATABASE_URL`, then start the profile again. To preserve data, connect as an administrator and run `ALTER ROLE openmaic WITH PASSWORD 'new-password';`, then update `DATABASE_URL`. Compose cannot attach `depends_on` to `openmaic` only when this optional profile is active without also affecting the default deployment. Startup therefore relies on the embedded route's retry-on-next-request behavior while PostgreSQL becomes healthy. Deleting or replacing an asset only drops its registry entry; the bytes behind it are reclaimed afterwards by an offline collector. **This deployment runs that collector by default**, so nothing has to be configured for asset storage to stop growing. A pass runs every `ASSET_COLLECTION_INTERVAL_MS` (default 15 minutes) over bytes that have been unreferenced for longer than `ASSET_COLLECTION_GRACE_MS` (default 1 hour); the grace period is the retention window a user's deleted bytes actually get, so raise it deliberately. Set `ASSET_COLLECTION_ENABLED=0` to switch collection off in a process. A horizontally scaled deployment may leave it on in every instance — each blob row is locked and re-checked before its bytes go, so concurrent collectors serialize rather than race — or disable it everywhere and run its own. Asset byte egress is direct by default: the embedded route materializes the bytes in the response body. Setting `ASSET_BYTE_EGRESS=redirect` opts into **indirect** egress, under which a byte `GET` answers with a short-lived signed S3 URL when the byte layer can sign (S3 can; the PostgreSQL byte column cannot and falls back to direct bytes). Two object-store prerequisites make that safe: the bucket must allow this app's origin via CORS and expose `Content-Type` on the signed response, and the signing identity must hold `s3:ListBucket` on the bucket so a missing key answers `404 NoSuchKey` rather than `403` — a client can only read a reclaimed asset as a miss when the store confirms it by code. The tradeoffs this opts into are specified in the [asset HTTP contract](packages/@openmaic/storage/docs/asset-http-contract.md). The embedded endpoint implements the package's [RuntimeStore HTTP contract](packages/@openmaic/storage/docs/runtime-http-contract.md) and [DocumentStore HTTP contract](packages/@openmaic/storage/docs/document-http-contract.md). Leave `NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE` unset to retain the existing browser-only behavior. ### Optional: Agent workbench and runtime The Pro workbench is a usable course-building surface entered from the home page. Its collapsible navigation rail, conversation pane, and tabbed classroom pane share `/api/agent/*` control-plane routes and an in-process session runner. It is off by default. Enable its build-time entry point and the server runtime with the same PostgreSQL connection used by server-backed persistence: ```env NEXT_PUBLIC_PRO_WORKBENCH_ENABLED=true OPENMAIC_AGENT_RUNTIME_ENABLED=true DATABASE_URL=postgres://openmaic:openmaic-dev@postgres:5432/openmaic MODEL_ROUTES='{"maic-agent-driver":{"model":"openai:gpt-5.5","api":"openai-completions"}}' ``` While the flag is off, the `/api/agent/sessions*` and `/api/agent/owner-events` routes answer `404`. Enabling it without a `DATABASE_URL` never starts the runner and makes the session routes error, so the runtime is server-backed by design. `MODEL_ROUTES` must explicitly route `maic-agent-driver` to a provider-prefixed model with an `openai-completions` or `openai-responses` `api`/`dialect`; there is intentionally no fallback. To make the browser use the same server-backed document and runtime stores, also build with `NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE=1` and configure the matching development tokens described in [Server-backed persistence](#server-backed-persistence-postgresql). Without these opt-ins, OpenMAIC retains its existing browser-only behavior. Runner cadence (scan interval, heartbeat, lease TTL, concurrency, attempts) and the reserved compaction knobs are listed in `.env.example`. ### Optional: MP4 Video Export (Render Service) The "Export Video" menu builds a self-contained [Hyperframes](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@hyperframes/producer) project entirely in the browser. Turning that into an MP4 needs Chromium + FFmpeg on Node 22, so it runs in an isolated `render-service` container rather than the app. It's opt-in. Start it with the `video-export` compose profile: ```bash docker compose --profile video-export up --build ``` The app auto-detects the service via `RENDER_SERVICE_URL` (preset in `docker-compose.yml`) and enables one-click MP4 rendering. Without the profile — or when `RENDER_SERVICE_URL` is unset — export degrades to downloading the project ZIP for local CLI rendering. See [`render-service/README.md`](render-service/README.md) for standalone setup and tuning (`RENDER_MAX_CONCURRENCY`, etc.). ### Optional: MinerU (Advanced Document Parsing) [MinerU](https://github.com/opendatalab/MinerU) provides enhanced parsing for complex tables, formulas, and OCR. You can use the [MinerU official API](https://mineru.net/) or [self-host your own instance](https://opendatalab.github.io/MinerU/quick_start/docker_deployment/). Set `PDF_MINERU_BASE_URL` (and `PDF_MINERU_API_KEY` if needed) in `.env.local`. ### Optional: VoxCPM2 (Self-Hosted TTS with Voice Cloning) [VoxCPM2](https://github.com/OpenBMB/VoxCPM) is an open-source TTS model from OpenBMB with voice cloning. OpenMAIC ships an adapter; run VoxCPM on your own hardware and OpenMAIC will talk to it. **1. Run a VoxCPM backend.** Three deployment styles, all behind the same OpenMAIC adapter. You toggle which one in Settings. | Backend | Endpoint | When to use | | --- | --- | --- | | **vLLM-Omni** | `/v1/audio/speech` | OpenAI-compatible speech endpoint, ideal for GPU servers | | **Python API** | `/tts/upload` | Official VoxCPM Python runtime via FastAPI | | **Nano-vLLM** | `/generate` | Lightweight Nano-vLLM FastAPI deployment | See the [VoxCPM repo](https://github.com/OpenBMB/VoxCPM) for backend setup. **2. Point OpenMAIC at it.** Open Settings → **Text-to-Speech** → **VoxCPM2**, pick the backend, and paste your Base URL. The Request URL preview confirms OpenMAIC will hit the right endpoint. VoxCPM2 connection settings: backend selector, Base URL, model

VoxCPM2 connection settings: backend selector, Base URL, model

Or pre-configure it via env var (no API key required): ```env TTS_VOXCPM_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8000/v1 ``` **3. Manage voices.** Three voice modes, all under **Settings → Text-to-Speech → VoxCPM2 → VoxCPM Voices**. VoxCPM2 VoxCPM Voices section with Auto, Prompt and Clone modes

VoxCPM2 VoxCPM Voices section with Auto, Prompt and Clone modes

- **Auto Voice** (default): OpenMAIC generates a voice prompt from each agent's persona at synthesis time. No setup required. - **Prompt voice**: describe the voice in natural language, e.g. *"warm female teacher voice, calm and encouraging, mid-pitch"*. - **Clone voice**: upload a short reference audio clip or record one in the browser. The clip is stored in IndexedDB and sent to your VoxCPM backend on each synthesis. --- ## ✨ Features ### Agent Workbench and Pro Mode (v1.0.0) The workbench adds a conversational course-building agent to OpenMAIC. Its durable sessions can be resumed after a worker restart, accept follow-up instructions while running, and stream a replayable event history to the chat surface. Open it from the Pro control on the home page. The workspace combines a transient, collapsible folders/conversations rail with a chat pane and a classroom pane whose open courses stay in tabs. Workspace controls return to classic mode, and either entry remains gated by the public workbench flag plus the configured server runtime. The agent works through explicit, validated tools rather than editing opaque blobs: | Area | Capabilities | | --- | --- | | **Plan and organize** | Plan multi-lesson curricula; create courses and folders; rename and move courses | | **Build and edit** | Read/search the stage DSL; atomically patch one scene; generate, duplicate, insert, delete, and reorder pages; edit narration and deck structure | | **Use materials** | Upload files; extract documents, audio, and video; search extracted text; fetch trusted web URLs; reuse material media | | **Create media** | Generate images and videos through configured server providers; generate narration audio | | **Import and inspect** | Import `.pptx` slides with their layout preserved; render scene previews for visual inspection when available | | **Configure the classroom** | List available voices, set the agent roster, and clone/register a voice when a pluggable registration adapter is configured | Twenty built-in skills cover curriculum planning, deep research, interactive, lecture, workshop, vocational, and other teaching styles, slide/stage craft, PPTX import, editing, and style reuse. User-authored skills are stored per owner and can be created, read, and patched through the same runtime. The server-backed workbench also exposes owner-scoped folder routes and a per-viewer stage metadata sidecar for ownership, publication, and generation-complete state. A stage ID acts as the capability for reading a non-deleted course, but stage mutations remain restricted to its owner. The material upload contract stores supported source bytes before lease-fenced document or media extraction records derived text and images; media extraction can select AliDocMind or the optional local ffmpeg/ffprobe provider. Under the hood, agent sessions are database-backed with leases, heartbeats, crash resume, cancellation, and follow-up steering, and database-maintained revision counters keep per-stage and per-scene freshness monotonic so the workbench refetches only the scenes that changed. Server routes resolve LLM, media, ASR/TTS, and search configuration provider-neutrally: credentials never reach the browser, uniform `__ENABLED=false` switches can force off any served capability, startup validation warns about bad model configuration, and unresolved model routes fail loudly instead of guessing a vendor. ### Pluggable Storage OpenMAIC runs without a database by default: course documents, learner runtime records, device/account KV values, and assets use browser storage. The `@openmaic/storage` package defines swappable stores for those primitives and adds PostgreSQL-backed documents, learner runtime, assets, durable agent sessions, session materials, and user skills. HTTP clients connect the browser to the embedded persistence endpoint, while the server asset layer can keep bytes in PostgreSQL or S3. ### Deep Interactive Mode (New!) **Passive listening? ❌ Hands-on exploration! ✅** As Einstein said: *"Play is the highest form of research."* While **Standard Mode** focuses on quickly generating classroom content, **Deep Interactive Mode** goes further — creating interactive, explorable, hands-on learning experiences. Students don't just watch knowledge; they adjust experiments, observe simulations, and actively explore how things work. #### Five Types of Interactive UI

🌐 3D Visualization Three-dimensional visual representations that make abstract structures more intuitive.	⚙️ Simulation Process simulations and experimental environments for observing dynamic changes and outcomes.
🎮 Game Knowledge-based mini-games that reinforce understanding and memory through interactive challenges.	🧭 Mind Map Structured knowledge organization to help learners build an overall conceptual framework.
💻 Online Programming In-browser coding and instant execution for learning by writing, testing, and iterating.

#### AI Teacher Guidance The AI teacher can actively operate the UI to guide students — highlighting key areas, setting conditions, providing hints, and directing attention at the right moments.

#### Available on Any Device All generated interactive UI is fully responsive — desktop, tablet, or mobile.

#### Need a More Complete and Professional UI Generation Experience? If you are looking for a version with richer functionality, stronger interactivity, and deeper optimization for high-quality educational UI production, please visit [MAIC-UI](https://github.com/THU-MAIC/MAIC-UI). ### Lesson Generation Describe what you want to learn or attach reference materials. PDF, Word, PowerPoint, spreadsheet, text, image, audio, and video inputs can enter the material pipeline; configured extractors turn supported sources into content for generation. OpenMAIC's classic two-stage pipeline handles the rest: | Stage | What Happens | |-------|-------------| | **Outline** | AI analyzes your input and generates a structured lesson outline | | **Scenes** | Each outline item becomes a rich scene — slides, quizzes, interactive modules, or PBL activities | ### Classroom Components

🎓 Slides AI teachers deliver lectures with voice narration, spotlight effects, and laser pointer animations — just like a real classroom.	🧪 Quiz Interactive quizzes (single / multiple choice, short answer) with real-time AI grading and feedback.
🔬 Interactive Simulation HTML-based interactive experiments for visual, hands-on learning — physics simulators, flowcharts, and more.	🏗️ Project-Based Learning (PBL) Choose a role and collaborate with AI agents on structured projects with milestones and deliverables.

### Multi-Agent Interaction

- **Classroom Discussion** — Agents proactively initiate discussions; you can jump in anytime or get called on - **Roundtable Debate** — Multiple agents with different personas discuss a topic, with whiteboard illustrations - **Q&A Mode** — Ask questions freely; the AI teacher responds with slides, diagrams, or whiteboard drawings - **Whiteboard** — AI agents draw on a shared whiteboard in real time — solving equations step by step, sketching flowcharts, or illustrating concepts visually.

Agent Workbench Integration

The OpenMAIC skill package (`skills/openmaic/`) uses the standard SKILL.md format and can be loaded by various agent workbenches — besides OpenClaw, this includes **Codex**, **DeepSeek**, **WorkBuddy**, and others. It is a guided SOP covering the live demo, local setup, classroom generation, and secondary development on top of the `@openmaic/*` SDK. [OpenClaw](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw) is a personal AI assistant that connects to the messaging platforms you already use (Feishu, Slack, Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, etc.). With this integration, you can **generate and view interactive classrooms directly from your chat app** without ever touching a terminal.

Just tell your agent assistant what you want to learn — it handles everything else: - **Hosted mode** — Grab an access code from [open.maic.chat](https://open.maic.chat/), save it in your config, and generate classrooms instantly — no local setup required - **Self-hosted mode** — Clone, install dependencies, configure API keys, and start the server — the skill guides you through each step - **Track progress** — Poll the async generation job and send you the link when ready - **Secondary development** — Guide you through building on top of OpenMAIC: create your own app with the `@openmaic/*` SDK (see the extend docs inside the skill) Every step asks for your confirmation first. No black-box automation.

**Available on ClawHub** — Install with one command: ```bash clawhub install openmaic ``` Or, in other agent workbenches such as Codex, DeepSeek, or WorkBuddy, import the `skills/openmaic/` folder from the repo (or its zipped archive) into the workbench to use it:

Configuration & details

| Phase | What the skill does | |------|-------------| | **Clone** | Detect an existing checkout or ask before cloning/installing | | **Startup** | Choose between `pnpm dev`, `pnpm build && pnpm start`, or Docker | | **Provider Keys** | Recommend a provider path; you edit `.env.local` yourself | | **Generation** | Submit an async generation job and poll until it completes | Optional config in `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json`: ```jsonc { "skills": { "entries": { "openmaic": { "config": { // Hosted mode: paste your access code from open.maic.chat "accessCode": "sk-xxx", // Self-hosted mode: local repo path and URL "repoDir": "/path/to/OpenMAIC", "url": "http://localhost:3000" } } } } } ```

### Export | Format | Description | |--------|-------------| | **PowerPoint (.pptx)** | Fully editable slides with images, charts, and LaTeX formulas | | **Interactive HTML** | Self-contained web pages with interactive simulations | | **Classroom ZIP** | Full classroom export (course structure + media) for backup or sharing | **Offline / intranet classrooms:** When you export a classroom (`.maic.zip`) or a Resource Pack, OpenMAIC inlines the external assets referenced by interactive scenes (KaTeX, Three.js incl. `three/addons`, Tailwind CDN, Google Fonts, images) into the exported HTML as `data:` URIs. The exported course then plays fully offline after import into an air-gapped/intranet instance — no public CDN is contacted at playback time. Assets that can't be fetched at export time (e.g. CORS-restricted image hosts) are reported and left as URLs. Classrooms exported *before* this feature still reference CDNs and must be re-exported to gain offline support. ### And More - **Text-to-Speech** — Multiple voice providers with customizable voices - **Speech Recognition** — Talk to your AI teacher using your microphone - **Web Search** — Agents search the web for up-to-date information during class - **Provider controls** — Server-side capability discovery, model resolution, force-off switches, and fail-loud routing keep deployments explicit - **Course freshness** — Database-triggered per-scene revision counters, freshness events, and targeted scene fetches keep workbench views synchronized - **i18n** — Interface supports 12 locales across 11 languages: Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish (Mexico), French, Vietnamese, and German - **Dark Mode** — Easy on the eyes for late-night study sessions --- ## 💡 Use Cases
