ollie

An AI agent exposed as a filesystem. Mount it, then use shell tools.

Quick start

olliesrv start                                       # start the 9P server
echo "cwd=$PWD" > ~/mnt/ollie/s/new              # create a session
ls ~/mnt/ollie/s/                                    # find the session ID
echo "hello" > ~/mnt/ollie/s/<id>/prompt             # send a prompt
cat ~/mnt/ollie/s/<id>/chat                          # read the conversation
tail -f ~/mnt/ollie/s/<id>/chat                      # follow live output

Session management

echo "cwd=/path backend=ollama model=qwen3:8b" > ~/mnt/ollie/s/new
mv ~/mnt/ollie/s/<id> ~/mnt/ollie/s/my-name         # rename
rm -r ~/mnt/ollie/s/<id>                             # kill
echo stop > ~/mnt/ollie/s/<id>/ctl                   # interrupt current turn

Switching backend/model/agent

cat ~/mnt/ollie/backends                             # list backends
cat ~/mnt/ollie/s/<id>/models                        # list models for current backend
echo ollama > ~/mnt/ollie/s/<id>/backend
echo qwen3:8b > ~/mnt/ollie/s/<id>/model
echo myagent > ~/mnt/ollie/s/<id>/agent

Writes to backend, model, and agent are rejected while the agent is running.
