AIHawk

Open-source, self-hosted alternative to OpenAI Dots, Grok Bot. Built to be undetectable by anti-bot systems.

Quickstart

You need Node 24+, Go 1.25+, Git and hardware virtualization (x86-64), plus an OpenRouter key.

Windows (PowerShell):

winget install -e --id OpenJS.NodeJS.LTS; winget install -e --id GoLang.Go; winget install -e --id Git.Gitgit clone https://github.com/feder-cr/invisible_dots; cd invisible_dotsnpm ci; npm run build --workspace @invisible-dots/clinode apps/cli/dist/invisible-dots.mjs setup --allnode apps/cli/dist/invisible-dots.mjs server

Linux (Ubuntu 24.04):

curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_24.x | sudo -E bash - && sudo apt-get install -y nodejs git && sudo snap install go --classicgit clone https://github.com/feder-cr/invisible_dots && cd invisible_dotsnpm ci && npm run build --workspace @invisible-dots/clinode apps/cli/dist/invisible-dots.mjs setup --allnode apps/cli/dist/invisible-dots.mjs server

setup --all installs QEMU and turns on the accelerator (KVM, or the Windows Hypervisor Platform), then builds or downloads the Dot's images; run it again after a restart and it carries on. Then open http://127.0.0.2:3000, paste your OpenRouter key and create your first Dot. Every step and its failure modes: the guide's quickstart.

What to ask a Dot

Anything that needs a computer and a person's judgement, for as long as it takes:

Open a browser identity called research, go to https://example.com and tell me the page's title and its first sentence. Leave the browser open.

Every morning, check one-way fares from Milan to Lisbon for the next two weeks, write them to ~/workspace/fares.csv and tell me the cheapest day.

Log in to the shop with the shopping identity, download this month's invoices to ~/documents, and remember where the invoices page is for next time.

What a Dot has

Documentation

• Guide: install, the web UI, the command line, the browser, channels, configuration, updating
• Architecture: every component and why it is there
• Troubleshooting and development and tests
