5 use cases

  • Run a private personal AI agent from a source checkout

    Build the console, start the gateway, and chat with a self-hosted agent on your own machine.

    View prompt
    Work in the Sidiora-Labs/centra-gideon-agent checkout and set up a self-hosted instance using the README self-host steps with GIDEON_HOME set to <state-directory>. Report the console address the gateway prints and the result of the gideon setup prompts. Verify that the gateway answers HTTP requests on port 10000 before reporting success.
  • Have an agent work a goal across many turns on a schedule

    Set up a long-running goal loop that works unattended and reports to your inbox.

    View prompt
    In the Sidiora-Labs/centra-gideon-agent console, create a goal loop for <goal> on <schedule> and report the loop name, its schedule, and its first status. Verify that the loop appears under running loops and scheduled jobs before you report it as set up.
  • Run Gideon in one Docker container with persistent state

    Build the single-container image from the checkout and run it with a persistent volume.

    View prompt
    In the Sidiora-Labs/centra-gideon-agent checkout, build the image with the README Docker command and run the container named gideon. Report the access URL from docker logs gideon. Verify that the container is running with docker ps before you report success.
  • Build a custom Gideon app with the gideon.sdk package

    Start from the app template in examples and write an app against the Python SDK.

    View prompt
    In the Sidiora-Labs/centra-gideon-agent repository, read the app template under examples and write a new app that uses gideon.sdk to provide <capability>. Report the files you created and the app's requested permissions. Verify that the existing test suite passes with make test before you report success.
  • Make a runtime change and pass the repo's checks

    Set up the git hooks, make a Python change, and run the format, lint and test targets.

    View prompt
    In the Sidiora-Labs/centra-gideon-agent repository, make the change described as <change> under runtime/gideon, then run make format, make lint and make test. Report the changed files and the final test result. Verify that make lint and make test both finish with no errors before you report the change as ready.
