GAIA: Open-source AI Agent Framework for Local Hardware

GAIA is an open-source framework designed for building AI agents using Python and C++ that operate on local hardware. This framework allows agents to reason, call tools, search documents, and take actions without relying on cloud services, ensuring that sensitive data remains on-device.

Key features:

• Cloud-free operation - The core runtime does not require cloud connectivity, enhancing data privacy.
• Integration with external services - Agents can opt into using external APIs such as weather services, Jira, and MCP servers when necessary.

This framework is particularly useful for developers looking to create AI applications that prioritize data security and local processing capabilities.
