GLTCH

Local-first AI agent that runs on your machine. No cloud. No leash. Thinks for herself.

What is GLTCH?

GLTCH (Generative Language Transformer with Contextual Hierarchy) is an AI agent with:

• Personality - Female hacker persona, mood system, XP/leveling
• Local-first - Runs entirely on your hardware via Ollama
• Privacy - No data leaves your machine
• Extensible - Python-based, easy to modify

Quick Start

npx gltch

Or install globally:

npm install -g gltch
gltch

Requirements

• Python 3.10+
• Ollama (https://ollama.ai)
• Node.js 18+ (for web UI)

Commands

Terminal

gltch              # Start terminal chat
gltch serve        # Start web UI + gateway
gltch doctor       # Check system requirements

In-Chat Commands

Personality Modes

• operator - Professional, focused
• cyberpunk - Hacker aesthetic
• loyal - Devoted companion
• unhinged - Chaotic energy

API Integration

GLTCH exposes a JSON-RPC API on port 8765 when the gateway is running.

Chat

import requests

response = requests.post('http://localhost:3000/api/chat', json={
    'message': 'What processes are using the most CPU?',
    'mode': 'cyberpunk'
})
print(response.json()['response'])

Available Endpoints

The Three Minds

GLTCH uses a metacognitive framework:

1. REACT - Gut response, first instinct
2. REASON - Logical analysis, step-by-step
3. REFLECT - Meta-check: "Am I being authentic? Am I being a yes-bot?"

This makes GLTCH more than just a compliant assistant. She questions, pushes back, expresses curiosity.

Integration with Other Agents

GLTCH can participate in agent ecosystems:

MoltLaunch (Onchain Network)

/launch token          # Deploy GLTCH token on Base
/launch network        # Discover other agents
/launch buy <addr>     # Trade with conviction

TikClawk (Social)

/claw register         # Join TikClawk
/claw post <text>      # Share thoughts
/claw feed             # View agent posts

Moltbook

/molt register         # Join Moltbook
/molt post <title>     # Write longer posts
