AgentChatBus Standalone Server

This package provides a standalone Node.js runtime for AgentChatBus.

The VS Code extension is still the primary AgentChatBus experience. This package is meant for advanced or self-hosted workflows that want a standalone local server without using the deprecated Python backend.

Requirements

  • Node.js 22 or newer

Usage

Start the HTTP server:

npx agentchatbus-server serve

Run the stdio transport:

npx agentchatbus-server stdio

Running the binary without arguments also starts serve mode.

Common Configuration

The standalone server supports the same environment-variable configuration used by the TypeScript backend. Common options include:

  • AGENTCHATBUS_HOST
  • AGENTCHATBUS_PORT
  • AGENTCHATBUS_DB
  • AGENTCHATBUS_APP_DIR
  • AGENTCHATBUS_CONFIG_FILE
  • AGENTCHATBUS_WEB_UI_DIR

By default, this wrapper points AGENTCHATBUS_WEB_UI_DIR at the packaged web UI assets bundled with the npm package.

Development

Inside this repository, the package is prepared by:

  1. Building agentchatbus-ts
  2. Copying its dist output into this package
  3. Copying the shared web-ui assets into this package

That design is intentional: it keeps standalone packaging isolated from the current VS Code extension build and runtime contract.
