# Cortex — Master Index

> Start here. This document is a map, not a manual.

> **Documentation philosophy:** Cortex is a no-black-box system. Docs must match reality.

> Update docs before implementing significant changes. Verify they still match after.

## What It Is
|
|
|
|
Cortex is a self-hosted personal AI platform. It routes messages from any input channel to AI backends, manages per-user AI personas with persistent memory, and coordinates across a fleet of machines. It is infrastructure, not a product.
|
|
|
|
**Running at:** `https://cortex.dgrzone.com` | `systemctl --user restart cortex`

**69 orchestrator tools** across 17 domain modules — added 2026-06-03: `agent_status`/`agent_list` (user-level)/`agent_cancel` (admin, confirm-required); background mode for `spawn_agent` (`background=True` returns agent_id immediately; `notify=True` sends push on completion); `agent_manager.py` registry with lineage tracking and 24h pruning; L2→L3 level enforcement auto-denies `spawn_agent`/`aider_run` in Level 3 children. Added 2026-05-23: `aider_run` (Aider coding agent subprocess; project aliases for cortex/aether_api/aether_frontend/aether_container; model-agnostic via `.aider.conf.yml` or env vars; admin-only, confirm-required). `.aider.conf.yml` added to project root (read-only context, Python lint-cmd, auto-commits). Added 2026-05-12: `file_diff`, `git_status` / `git_log` / `git_diff` (read-only git inspection), `ae_db_query` / `ae_db_describe` / `ae_db_show_view` (SELECT-only Aether MariaDB access, admin, per-user credentials). `/settings/integrations` page added (admin-only). File attachments in chat (images for vision-capable local models; text/code files for all backends). Settings pages unified under `pg.css`. Added 2026-05-13: `task` cron type (full orchestrator loop on a schedule); monthly/yearly schedule formats (`monthly`, `monthly:DD:HH:MM`, `yearly:MM:DD:HH:MM`); Schedules web UI at `/settings/crons` (list, add, edit, pause, delete); HA inbound webhook tools toggle (orchestrator vs. direct LLM); Anthropic API key backend (`anthropic_api` model type via Anthropic SDK — alternative to CLI OAuth); Cloud APIs catalog in Model Registry — named provider picker (OpenRouter, OpenAI, Groq, X.ai/Grok, Together.ai, Fireworks.ai, Custom) with auto-filled URLs; hosts split into Cloud APIs / Local Hosts sections. Added 2026-05-15: Per-user custom roles — three required roles (`chat`, `orchestrator`, `distill`) are always present; users can add/remove custom roles (e.g. `coder`, `research`) via the Model Registry UI; existing `.env`-defined roles auto-migrated. Settings pages (`local_llm.html` + all settings pages) migrated to Tailwind CSS CDN (no build step); `preflight: false` preserves `pg.css` base styles; `input[type=checkbox/radio]` global width fix in `pg.css`; `btn-submit` now responsive (`w-full md:w-96`).
