Community Preview warning
Josi CE 0.1 is beta-quality software. Features may be incomplete, unavailable, delayed, inaccurate or changed without notice. Do not use Josi as the sole system for emergencies, safety, healthcare, legal, financial, compliance, access control or backups. Review AI output and consequential actions yourself.
Help and current features
Josi CE provides one self-hosted workspace with conversations, tasks, approvals, contacts, memory, model providers, connected accounts, operational mail, documents, external messaging channels, backups, diagnostics, an installable web app, optional Voice Box, and integrations.
Administrators configure the installation under Admin. Members use their own accounts under Workspace.
First-run recovery key
The setup wizard shows the recovery key once. Select Copy key or Download key, store it away from the Josi computer, and then confirm that it was saved. There is no separate terminal command for this step.
Backups and system checkup
Admin → Overview shows installation status and recommendations. Admin → System checkup runs Josi Doctor. It explains problems, offers only bounded automatic repairs, asks for approval, and verifies the result. It also checks the stable release channel and applies an exactly approved update only after creating a backup. Admin → Backups creates backups and configures SMB or NFS storage. Keep the recovery key separately from the backup destination.
Integrations
Admin → Integrations connects model providers and external services. Credentials stay in the Master Vault. Consequential writes and deletes still require approval.
Family / Parental Controls BETA
Do not rely on these controls for a child's safety. They control only access to Josi. They do not lock a device, block other apps or websites, monitor location or actual screen time, contact emergency services, or replace active adult supervision and proven device-level controls.
