What it actually does
Talks to you where you already are
WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, Telegram, or the phone app. The same assistant,
the same memory, whichever one you happen to open.
Remembers
Long-term memory backed by GitLoom — every fact
about one subject in one place, with the history of how it changed.
Runs things on a schedule
Digests, sweeps, watchers. Written as a YAML file you can read in ten
seconds, or as sandboxed code when you need real control flow.
Connects to your tools
GitHub, Notion, Google Workspace, and anything else you connect — as tools
the agent can call, not as integrations you have to babysit.
The parts worth knowing about
It is yours. KARMAX holds a WhatsApp session, Google tokens and your memory. All of it lives on your machine, in your home directory. There is no hosted KARMAX to sign into. It acts, and tells you what it did. Not everything needs your approval, and not everything can be automatic. KARMAX answers what it is confident about, proposes what needs a decision, and reminds you about what only you can do. Everything it can do is a capability you granted. A loop that wants to send messages as you has to declare that, and you see the list before it is installed. See the capability model.Getting started
