The prek job never builds an image, so a bump of the Dockerfile's base image reached main unvalidated and only failed afterwards in Publish - by which point ghcr.io/etkecc/baibot:latest had already been attempted. Add a gate job that looks for Dockerfile changes against main, and a build job that builds the image the way Publish does but with `push: false`. The build is gated rather than unconditional because it is a full Rust release build: running it on every push would turn a ~1 minute pipeline into a ~10 minute one for changes that cannot affect the image. It is skipped on main, where Publish already builds. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
baibot
🤖 baibot is an AI (Large Language Model) bot for Matrix built by etke.cc (managed Matrix servers).
The name is pronounced 'bye'-bot and is a play on AI, referencing the fictional character 🇧🇬 Bai Ganyo.
It's designed as a more private and featureful alternative to matrix-chatgpt-bot. It's influenced by chaz, but does not use the AIChat CLI tool and instead does everything in-process, without forking.
🌟 Features
-
🎨 Encourages provider choice (Anthropic, Groq, LocalAI, OpenAI, Venice and ☁️ many more) as well as mixing & matching models:
-
Supports different use purposes (depending on the ☁️ provider & model):
- 💬 text-generation: communicating with you via text (though certain models may "see" images as well). The OpenAI provider also supports 🛠️ built-in tools (web search, code interpreter)
- 🦻 speech-to-text: turning your voice messages into text
- 🗣️ text-to-speech: turning bot or users text messages into voice messages
- 🖌️ image-generation: creating and editing images based on instructions
-
🪄 Supports seamless voice interaction (turning user voice messages into text, answering in text, then turning that text back into voice)
-
🦻 Supports transcribe-only mode (turning user voice messages into text, without doing text-generation)
-
🗣️ Supports text-to-speech-only mode (turning user text messages into voice, without doing text-generation)
-
🔒 Supports encryption for Matrix communication and Account-Data-stored configuration
-
♻️ Supports context-management for every provider (automatically trimming older messages on whole-turn boundaries once a conversation outgrows the context window)
-
🛠️ Allows customizing much of the bot's configuration at runtime (using commands sent via chat)
-
👥 Actively maintained by the team at etke.cc
