FAQ
Is Nanobot a plain MCP server?
No — it is a self-hosted agent framework with a WebUI and chat apps. MCP is one of its integration layers, not its whole identity.
Can I self-host Nanobot on a laptop?
Yes, that is the target use case. A reasonably modern machine is enough for local models; you can also point it at hosted LLMs.
How does Nanobot compare to running fastmcp + a UI separately?
Nanobot bundles the agent, tools, memory and UI. The framework route gives you more control but more assembly.
