What it is

DeepChat is an open-source, local-first AI agent desktop client with support for MCP, Skills, ACP, and remote control integrations for messaging apps.

How it works

The project presents a desktop application that connects to multiple model providers (e.g., Deepseek, Moonshot, OpenAI, Gemini, Ollama, etc.), supports Skills installation and enabling per conversation, ACP agent integration, and remote control via various messaging platforms. It emphasizes session recovery and traceability via a Tape.systems-inspired approach for long-running agent sessions.

Getting started

  • Quick Start guidance is provided in the README under Skills and ACP sections:
    • Install/enable ACP via Settings → ACP Agents
    • Install or import Skills via Settings → Skills
  • It supports multiple cloud/local model providers and a built-in MCP runtime, with a Node.js runtime for npx/node-style services.

Recent releases

  • v1.1.0-beta.11 (2026-07-31): Tolerated invalid MCP tool output schemas without rejecting otherwise usable tools
  • v1.1.0-beta.10 (2026-07-31): Improved alert confirmations and notification feedback; Added MCP v2 ecosystem support and a built-in McDonald’s server
  • v1.1.0-beta.9 (2026-07-29): Added Directives to Agent Memory; immediate and draft instruction handling
  • v1.1.0-beta.8 (2026-07-26): Added fully offline OCR for image attachments (Light-OCR)
  • v1.1.0-beta.7 (2026-07-25): Fixed auto-update failures with quoted Date in updater metadata

  • Stars: 6191
