RustFox

What it does

RustFox is a self-hosted Telegram AI assistant that brings agentic capabilities to your chat. It features a robust sandbox for file and command execution, a scheduling system for recurring tasks, and a vector-based memory system for long-term context. It acts as a hub that can integrate any MCP-compatible server to extend its functionality.

Tools

• read_file/write_file/list_files: Secure file operations within a sandbox.
• execute_command: Sandboxed shell command execution.
• schedule_task: Create recurring or one-shot tasks.
• invoke_agent: Run specialized sub-agents with dedicated instructions.
• plan_create/plan_update/plan_view: Manage structured execution plans for complex problem solving.
• mcp_<server>_<tool>: Dynamic tools provided by connected MCP servers.

Installation

RustFox is a standalone application. After cloning the repo and running cargo build --release, use the setup wizard:

./setup.sh

To connect MCP servers, add them to your config.toml:

[[mcp_servers]] name = "server-name" command = "uvx" args = ["package-name"]
