A deployment that provisions these tables with its own migration tooling has to reproduce the DDL exactly for ensureDocumentSchema() / ensureSchema() to stay the intended no-op against an already-provisioned database. Nothing guarded that today: every statement is CREATE ... IF NOT EXISTS, so PostgreSQL silently accepts whatever table already exists under the name. A column type, a nullability, an index or a FK action can drift apart from a downstream migration without an error, and the first symptom is a store query failing in production or succeeding against the wrong types. Pin both constants verbatim, and assert every statement stays IF NOT EXISTS guarded so the ensure functions remain idempotent. The pin does not judge the DDL; it makes changing it impossible to do by accident. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(packages): gate publishing on the version check The version check ran only in ci.yml. publish-packages.yml is a separate workflow, so it could reach `pnpm publish` on a main push, a matching tag, or a manual run with dry_run=false even when CI was red, skipped, or never ran. Run the validation inside the publish job, before publishing, in a new release mode that works for every trigger. A push range only exists for branch pushes, so release mode judges each package against the registry instead: a version that is not published yet is a release, and a version that is already published is accepted only when the package source has not moved since that release. `pnpm publish` skips an already-published version, so without that second half a drifted package releases as a silent no-op. The anchor for "since that release" is the @openmaic/<name>@<version> tag the job now writes after every successful publish, falling back to the push range for packages released before those tags existed. With neither anchor the release stops instead of guessing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(packages): make the release gate prove only what it can Three independent reviews of the previous revision converged on one root cause: it used git tags and a push range as the record of which tree produced a published version. Neither is trustworthy. Tags are mutable and can be created or moved by hand, so "the tag resolves" was being read as "the tag is authentic"; pnpm records no gitHead; and a push range describes one push, not the origin of a release. Packages released before the scheme existed had no anchor at all, which made the tag and manual triggers fail closed from the first run with no way to self-heal, dry runs included. Drop the anchor machinery. Drift is prevented where it is provable, in diff mode at merge time, which sees every commit before it can be released. The pre-publish gate is now limited to claims a release can establish: every version it publishes is new and moves forward, an already-published version is reported and left alone, and any registry answer that is not a definitive 404 stops the release. Around it, close what the reviews found in the workflow: - real publishes only from a commit contained in main, so a tag or manual run cannot ship an unreviewed ref while holding NPM_TOKEN - one repository-wide concurrency group, so a main push and a tag push cannot each decide the same version is unpublished - publish and mark each package individually, so a partial failure stays retryable instead of leaving published packages unrecorded - fail if the build rewrites tracked package files, which would otherwise publish content that is not in the released commit - compare against every published version when ordering, and refuse to guess when the registry holds versions this check cannot order The schema pin also asserted the constants without asserting what the ensure functions execute, so those could diverge. Both are now run against a recording queryable and their exact statement sequence is asserted. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(packages): refuse to release from a tree behind the registry Simplifying the gate introduced a hole that a mutation check caught: a package whose local version is already published took the "already published, skip" path before any ordering check, so a tree rolled back to an older published version passed silently. That is not a harmless no-op, because pnpm publish rewrites each workspace dependency to the version in the tree, and a sibling released alongside it would be published declaring a dependency on the older package. Order every package against the registry first, then decide: at the highest published version it is a legitimate skip, below it the release stops. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(packages): couple publishing to a green CI run for the same commit Second review round, on the reworked design. The headline defect was a hard blocker: `git fetch --depth=0` is not valid git (that is an actions/checkout convention), so under `set -e` every real publish aborted before the gate ever ran. Remove the depth argument; the checkout already has full history. The rest closes the gap both reviewers reached independently, that being on main is not the same as having passed the gate: - wait for this exact commit's CI conclusion and require success. ci.yml runs concurrently with this workflow on a push to main and blocks nothing, so an unpublished version whose source drifted could be released while its own version check was still running or already red. - require the commit on main's FIRST-PARENT history. Plain reachability also accepts every intermediate commit of every branch merged with a merge commit. A pull request that adds a bad tree and reverts it in the next commit leaves that tree an ancestor of main forever, and a tag pointing at it published it. - do not cancel CI runs on main. Each run validates only its own push range, so cancelling one drops the range that contained the change, and its replacement compares against the cancelled tip and sees nothing. - run the version check on every main push. A branch creation or force push reports an unusable `before`, which used to skip the gate entirely; fall back to the first parent instead. - publish with --ignore-scripts. Every package's prepublishOnly reruns the build, deleting and regenerating the dist that was just verified and smoke-tested, so npm could receive bytes nothing had checked. - run storage's PostgreSQL contract suites before publishing it. They skip themselves without a database, so the one backend that needs a real PostgreSQL was shipping unexercised. - order registry versions with real semver, prereleases included. Rejecting every non-x.y.z version meant one historical prerelease anywhere in one package's history would refuse every future release of every package. - warn when a release marker exists but points at another commit. Note what is NOT enforceable here: a workflow_dispatch or tag run executes the workflow definition from the selected ref, so a branch that edits this file can delete these checks. The boundary has to be a GitHub Environment holding NPM_TOKEN behind a main-only deployment branch rule. The job now declares that environment and the header states the required setup; the in-file checks are defence in depth. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(packages): stop the first-parent check failing on SIGPIPE Third review round. The blocker this time: `git rev-list --first-parent | grep -qx` under `set -o pipefail`. grep exits at the first match, rev-list then dies of SIGPIPE, and the pipeline returns 141, so a commit that IS on main is read as "not on main" and every real publish is refused. It does not reproduce in a shallow clone, where main's history fits in the pipe buffer; with the full history this job checks out it always will. Count matches instead, which reads the whole stream. Also from this round: - identify the CI run by workflow file and triggering event rather than by a check-run display name. Names are not unique, so any other workflow or app publishing a check called "Lint, Typecheck & Unit Tests" could stand in for a red version gate. - fail the main-push version check when the push range is unusable instead of substituting HEAD^. A force push can replace many commits at once, so the previous commit is not the range that needs checking, and a green run here is what publishing depends on. - correct the stated limitation. It claimed the package-directory input model was exact for dsl and storage; it is not. Their dist is whatever the lockfile's TypeScript emits, and dsl's shipped JSON schema comes from the lockfile's ts-json-schema-generator, so a toolchain bump can change any of the four tarballs with no diff under the package directory. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(packages): make a merged version bump the only release input The tag trigger was incoherent. Its own documentation admitted that any @openmaic/* tag republishes the whole family and that which packages actually go out is decided by the manifests, so the tag name never participated in the decision. It was a second entry point to one decision function, it bypassed review entirely because a tag is not a diff and can be created by anyone with write access on any commit, and it cannot be guarded: environment deployment rules match GITHUB_REF, so refs/tags/* and a main-only rule are mutually exclusive. Drop it. A version bump that landed on main is now the only release input, and `@openmaic/<name>@<version>` tags are an output written after a package reaches the registry. Nothing is lost: a manual dispatch from main still republishes without a new commit, and that path is inside the protected environment. Split the workflow so the token has a boundary. `validate` holds everything that does not need NPM_TOKEN and runs from any ref, which keeps dry runs useful to contributors. `publish` is the only job declaring the `release` environment, so the token is never attached to a run that is merely validating. It rebuilds rather than sharing state, which is the right trade for a release. Also add the `actions: read` permission the CI-conclusion query needs; it was switched from the checks API to the Actions API without updating the scope, which would have failed with 403 on every real publish. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(contributing): explain when a package version must be bumped CONTRIBUTING said nothing about versioning or releases, while this branch adds a CI check that fails a contributor's PR with "publishable package inputs changed but version did not increase". A gate that rejects work without telling anyone the rule is the kind that ends up disabled. State the rule, the exact failure message, which files are exempt, and how to choose the number, with a specific warning for @openmaic/dsl: it is the contract the other packages validate against, so narrowing what an existing document may contain is breaking even when the diff is small. Also state what contributors do NOT do: publishing is automatic once a bump lands on main, and the release tag is a marker written afterwards rather than something to push. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(packages): run renderer's tests before publishing renderer The pre-publish gate ran renderer's typecheck but never its test suite, so the one package whose behaviour is hardest to typecheck was the one shipping unexercised. It has 25 test files and 242 tests; they just were not in the filter list. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(packages): keep the git credential away from package code Review finding: the publish job held `contents: write` while actions/checkout had persisted that credential, and it then ran `pnpm install` and the package builds. Any dependency or build script executed with a credentialed git remote in reach and a write scope to use it, which is a wider blast radius than publishing needs. Separate the two capabilities so no job holds both: - `validate` and `publish` run package code. Both now check out with `persist-credentials: false`, `validate` is pinned to `contents: read`, and `publish` drops write scope entirely, keeping only the `actions: read` it needs for the CI conclusion and `id-token: write` for provenance. - a new `mark` job is the only holder of `contents: write` and a git credential, and it installs nothing and builds nothing. `mark` also reconciles instead of only recording this run. A marker whose push failed previously could never be repaired before, because the release plan excludes versions already on the registry and the marker logic sat behind that plan. It now marks any registry version whose tag is missing, and leaves an existing tag alone rather than moving it.

3. Run
pnpm dev
Open http://localhost:3000 and start learning!
4. Build for Production
pnpm build && pnpm start
Optional: ACCESS_CODE (Shared Deployments)
To protect your deployment with a site-level password, set ACCESS_CODE in .env.local:
ACCESS_CODE=your-secret-code
When set, visitors see a password prompt before accessing the app. All API routes are also protected. If not set, the app works as before.
Vercel Deployment
Or manually:
- Fork this repository
- Import into Vercel
- Set environment variables (at minimum one LLM API key)
- Deploy
Docker Deployment
cp .env.example .env.local
# Edit .env.local with your API keys, then:
docker compose up --build
Server-backed persistence (PostgreSQL)
The server-persistence profile runs exactly two containers: the OpenMAIC app
and PostgreSQL. The persistence HTTP server is embedded in the app at
/api/persistence; there is no standalone persistence service.
cp .env.example .env.local
printf '\nDATABASE_URL=postgres://openmaic:openmaic-dev@postgres:5432/openmaic\nPERSISTENCE_DEV_TOKEN=openmaic-local-dev\n' >> .env.local
NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE=1 NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE_TOKEN=openmaic-local-dev docker compose --profile server-persistence up --build
Add your provider API keys to .env.local as usual. Runtime sessions and course
documents become server-backed; device-scoped KV data (including the anonymous
device learner key and playback position) remains in the browser. Existing
browser course data is copied into the configured server store lazily, one
course at a time when it is first accessed, using the same verified migration
path as browser persistence.
NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE is a build-time switch compiled into the browser
bundle. A build with it enabled must be deployed with a working runtime
DATABASE_URL and PERSISTENCE_DEV_TOKEN, while
NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE_TOKEN must match that server token at build time.
Otherwise the browser selects HTTP persistence but the embedded endpoint
returns configuration/authentication/initialization errors; the home page shows
a persistence-unavailable toast and keeps the prior course list instead of
misleadingly displaying an empty library.
PERSISTENCE_DEV_TOKEN and NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE_TOKEN are not a
secret in any meaningful sense: the NEXT_PUBLIC_ token is compiled into
the public JavaScript bundle, fully visible to every visitor, and therefore
provides no confidentiality and no user isolation whatsoever — anyone who
can load the page can extract it and read or write every learner partition
and all documents by choosing an x-learner-key. Its only purpose is to
keep unrelated network scanners out of an endpoint on a trusted network. This
is suitable only for localhost or trusted-network, single-user deployments. Before production,
replace
lib/persistence/server-auth.ts with real
session verification that derives the learner partition from server-controlled
identity, and change the document/merge/admin authorization policies as
appropriate.
PERSISTENCE_POSTGRES_PASSWORD initializes the PostgreSQL role only when the
data directory is empty; changing it later does not rotate an existing
openmaic-postgres volume. For a disposable local database, run
docker compose --profile server-persistence down -v, set the new password and
matching DATABASE_URL, then start the profile again. To preserve data, connect
as an administrator and run ALTER ROLE openmaic WITH PASSWORD 'new-password';,
then update DATABASE_URL.
Compose cannot attach depends_on to openmaic only when this optional profile
is active without also affecting the default deployment. Startup therefore
relies on the embedded route's retry-on-next-request behavior while PostgreSQL
becomes healthy.
The embedded endpoint implements the package's
RuntimeStore HTTP contract
and
DocumentStore HTTP contract.
Leave NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE unset to retain the existing browser-only
behavior.
Optional: MP4 Video Export (Render Service)
The "Export Video" menu builds a self-contained Hyperframes project entirely in the browser. Turning that into an MP4 needs Chromium + FFmpeg on Node 22, so it runs in an isolated render-service container rather than the app.
It's opt-in. Start it with the video-export compose profile:
docker compose --profile video-export up --build
The app auto-detects the service via RENDER_SERVICE_URL (preset in docker-compose.yml) and enables one-click MP4 rendering. Without the profile — or when RENDER_SERVICE_URL is unset — export degrades to downloading the project ZIP for local CLI rendering. See render-service/README.md for standalone setup and tuning (RENDER_MAX_CONCURRENCY, etc.).
Optional: MinerU (Advanced Document Parsing)
MinerU provides enhanced parsing for complex tables, formulas, and OCR. You can use the MinerU official API or self-host your own instance.
Set PDF_MINERU_BASE_URL (and PDF_MINERU_API_KEY if needed) in .env.local.
Optional: VoxCPM2 (Self-Hosted TTS with Voice Cloning)
VoxCPM2 is an open-source TTS model from OpenBMB with voice cloning. OpenMAIC ships an adapter; run VoxCPM on your own hardware and OpenMAIC will talk to it.
1. Run a VoxCPM backend. Three deployment styles, all behind the same OpenMAIC adapter. You toggle which one in Settings.
| Backend | Endpoint | When to use |
|---|---|---|
| vLLM-Omni | /v1/audio/speech |
OpenAI-compatible speech endpoint, ideal for GPU servers |
| Python API | /tts/upload |
Official VoxCPM Python runtime via FastAPI |
| Nano-vLLM | /generate |
Lightweight Nano-vLLM FastAPI deployment |
See the VoxCPM repo for backend setup.
2. Point OpenMAIC at it. Open Settings → Text-to-Speech → VoxCPM2, pick the backend, and paste your Base URL. The Request URL preview confirms OpenMAIC will hit the right endpoint.
Or pre-configure it via env var (no API key required):
TTS_VOXCPM_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8000/v1
3. Manage voices. Three voice modes, all under Settings → Text-to-Speech → VoxCPM2 → VoxCPM Voices.
- Auto Voice (default): OpenMAIC generates a voice prompt from each agent's persona at synthesis time. No setup required.
- Prompt voice: describe the voice in natural language, e.g. "warm female teacher voice, calm and encouraging, mid-pitch".
- Clone voice: upload a short reference audio clip or record one in the browser. The clip is stored in IndexedDB and sent to your VoxCPM backend on each synthesis.
✨ Features
Deep Interactive Mode (New!)
Passive listening? ❌ Hands-on exploration! ✅
As Einstein said: "Play is the highest form of research."
While Standard Mode focuses on quickly generating classroom content, Deep Interactive Mode goes further — creating interactive, explorable, hands-on learning experiences. Students don't just watch knowledge; they adjust experiments, observe simulations, and actively explore how things work.
Five Types of Interactive UI
AI Teacher Guidance
The AI teacher can actively operate the UI to guide students — highlighting key areas, setting conditions, providing hints, and directing attention at the right moments.
Available on Any Device
All generated interactive UI is fully responsive — desktop, tablet, or mobile.

Lesson Generation
Describe what you want to learn or attach reference materials. OpenMAIC's two-stage pipeline handles the rest:
| Stage | What Happens |
|---|---|
| Outline | AI analyzes your input and generates a structured lesson outline |
| Scenes | Each outline item becomes a rich scene — slides, quizzes, interactive modules, or PBL activities |
Classroom Components
Multi-Agent Interaction
OpenClaw Integration
|
OpenMAIC integrates with OpenClaw — a personal AI assistant that connects to messaging platforms you already use (Feishu, Slack, Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, etc.). With this integration, you can generate and view interactive classrooms directly from your chat app without ever touching a terminal. |
|
Just tell your OpenClaw assistant what you want to learn — it handles everything else:
- Hosted mode — Grab an access code from open.maic.chat, save it in your config, and generate classrooms instantly — no local setup required
- Self-hosted mode — Clone, install dependencies, configure API keys, and start the server — the skill guides you through each step
- Track progress — Poll the async generation job and send you the link when ready
Every step asks for your confirmation first. No black-box automation.

}
Export
| Format | Description |
|---|---|
| PowerPoint (.pptx) | Fully editable slides with images, charts, and LaTeX formulas |
| Interactive HTML | Self-contained web pages with interactive simulations |
| Classroom ZIP | Full classroom export (course structure + media) for backup or sharing |
Offline / intranet classrooms: When you export a classroom (.maic.zip) or a Resource Pack, OpenMAIC inlines the external assets referenced by interactive scenes (KaTeX, Three.js incl. three/addons, Tailwind CDN, Google Fonts, images) into the exported HTML as data: URIs. The exported course then plays fully offline after import into an air-gapped/intranet instance — no public CDN is contacted at playback time. Assets that can't be fetched at export time (e.g. CORS-restricted image hosts) are reported and left as URLs. Classrooms exported before this feature still reference CDNs and must be re-exported to gain offline support.
And More
- Text-to-Speech — Multiple voice providers with customizable voices
- Speech Recognition — Talk to your AI teacher using your microphone
- Web Search — Agents search the web for up-to-date information during class
- i18n — Interface supports 7 languages: Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), English, Japanese, Russian, Arabic, and Portuguese (Brazil)
- Dark Mode — Easy on the eyes for late-night study sessions
