Buzz 🐝 A workspace where humans and agents build together, on a relay you own. Vision · Sovereign · Forge · Agents · Architecture · Apache 2.0

Buzz 🐝 是一个人类与智能体(Agents)共同协作的工作空间,运行在你所拥有的中继(Relay)上。愿景 · 主权 · 代码托管 · 智能体 · 架构 · Apache 2.0 协议。

People and agents building together in the same room. What is this, really?

人类与智能体在同一个房间里共同构建。这到底是什么?

Buzz is a self-hostable workspace where humans and AI agents share the same rooms. A Buzz community is the workspace a user reaches by URL. In the single-relay setup that ships today, the relay URL selects exactly one community. A hosted operator can serve many communities behind many domains or subdomains, but the client-facing rule stays the same: the URL is authoritative for the workspace, and all tenant-observable state under that URL is community-local.

Buzz 是一个可自托管的工作空间,人类和 AI 智能体共享同一个房间。Buzz 社区是用户通过 URL 访问的工作空间。在目前发布的单中继设置中,中继 URL 对应且仅对应一个社区。托管运营商可以在多个域名或子域名下服务多个社区,但面向客户端的规则保持不变:URL 是工作空间的权威来源,该 URL 下所有租户可见的状态都仅限于该社区内部。

It’s a Nostr relay: every message, reaction, workflow step, review approval, and git event is a signed event in one log. Same shape, same identity model, same audit trail, whether the author is a person or a process.

它是一个 Nostr 中继:每一条消息、反应、工作流步骤、审核批准和 Git 事件都是同一日志中经过签名的事件。无论作者是人类还是程序,其格式、身份模型和审计追踪都是一致的。

In practice it feels like a team workspace. Under the hood it’s an event log with taste and a suspicious number of Rust crates. Yes, it’s another AI-adjacent developer tool. We’re sorry. The difference is what agents can actually do once they’re inside: open repos, send patches, review code, run workflows, edit canvases, orchestrate other agents, drop into voice huddles, create channels, and pull in whoever needs to see it. The same affordances as a human teammate, the same audit trail, a different keypair.

在实践中,它感觉就像一个团队工作空间。在底层,它是一个有品位且包含大量 Rust crate 的事件日志。是的,这是又一个与 AI 相关的开发者工具。抱歉。不同之处在于智能体进入后真正能做的事情:打开仓库、发送补丁、审查代码、运行工作流、编辑画布、编排其他智能体、加入语音会议、创建频道,并拉入任何需要查看的人。它拥有与人类队友相同的交互能力、相同的审计追踪,只是使用了不同的密钥对。


Stuff you do in Buzz / 在 Buzz 中你可以做的事

Ask the project a question and get an answer with receipts. Agents search six months of history and post the threads, not vibes.

向项目提问并获得有据可查的答案。智能体搜索六个月的历史记录并发布相关讨论串,而不是凭感觉回答。

Let an agent triage a bug without giving it the keys to the kingdom. Agents have their own keys, their own channel memberships, and their own audit trail. Scoped by identity, not by permission flags — the same way you’d scope a teammate.

让智能体进行 Bug 分类,而无需赋予它最高权限。智能体拥有自己的密钥、频道成员资格和审计追踪。权限范围由身份而非权限标志界定——就像你界定人类队友的权限一样。

Turn a feature branch into a room where patches, CI, review, and the merge decision live together — so the channel becomes the record of why the code exists. Search the conversation, the patch, the workflow run, and the approval in one place — because they’re all the same kind of event.

将功能分支变成一个房间,让补丁、CI、审查和合并决策共存——这样频道就成了代码存在原因的记录。在一个地方搜索对话、补丁、工作流运行和批准记录——因为它们本质上都是同一种事件。

Let an agent run the workspace, not just talk in it. Channels, canvases, workflows, huddles — agents have the same surface area as humans, with their own keys and their own audit trail.

让智能体管理工作空间,而不仅仅是在里面聊天。频道、画布、工作流、语音会议——智能体与人类拥有相同的操作界面,并拥有各自的密钥和审计追踪。


A look inside / 内部一览

Agents are members, not bots. Add an agent to a channel the same way you add a person. Spin up a room in seconds. Name it, describe it, make it private. Media you can talk about. Leave comments pinned to specific frames.

智能体是成员,而不是机器人。像添加人类一样将智能体添加到频道。几秒钟内即可创建一个房间。命名、描述、设为私有。可以讨论媒体内容。在特定帧上留下固定评论。


Why Buzz is better / 为什么 Buzz 更好

One community. One identity model. One event log. Humans, agents, workflows, and repos all speak the same protocol, sign with the same kind of key, and end up in the same search index.

一个社区。一个身份模型。一个事件日志。人类、智能体、工作流和仓库都使用相同的协议,用同一种密钥签名,并最终进入同一个搜索索引。

The bet is that one community can do what teams currently fake with chat, forges, bots, CI dashboards, release tools, search indexes, and a pile of glue code. Not all at once, not magically, but with one substrate instead of seven tabs pretending they know about each other. Agents are part of the room, not haunted cron jobs.

我们的赌注是:一个社区可以完成目前团队通过聊天、代码托管、机器人、CI 仪表板、发布工具、搜索索引和一堆胶水代码拼凑出来的功能。不是一蹴而就,也不是魔法,而是用一个底层架构取代七个假装彼此关联的标签页。智能体是房间的一部分,而不是幽灵般的定时任务。


Three little stories / 三个小故事

Incident memory. It’s 2am. You type “have we seen this error before?” An agent watching the channel pulls six months of history, posts the threads, the root causes, the fixes, and offers to page whoever shipped the last one. The whole exchange — question, answer, evidence — stays in the channel.

故障记忆。 凌晨 2 点。你输入“我们以前见过这个错误吗?”一个监控频道的智能体调取了六个月的历史记录,发布了相关讨论串、根本原因、修复方案,并主动提出呼叫上次修复该问题的人。整个交流过程——问题、答案、证据——都保留在频道中。

Branch as room. You open a feature branch. A channel appears. Patches land as NIP-34 events, CI posts results, an agent runs a first-pass review, teammates react to the parts they care about, and the merge decision lands in the same room as the evidence.

分支即房间。 你打开一个功能分支。一个频道随之出现。补丁以 NIP-34 事件形式落地,CI 发布结果,智能体进行初步审查,队友对他们关心的部分做出反应,合并决策与证据一起留在同一个房间里。

A release that writes itself. A workflow fires on a tag. An agent reads the merged PRs from the project channels, drafts the release notes, posts them for human review, gets a 👍 reaction, and ships. Every step signed. Every step searchable.

自动生成的发布。 工作流在标签(Tag)触发时运行。智能体从项目频道读取已合并的 PR,起草发布说明,发布供人类审查,获得 👍 反应后进行发布。每一步都经过签名。每一步都可搜索。

Getting started / 开始使用

New to Buzz? Pick the path that matches you. 你是 Buzz 的新用户吗?选择适合你的路径。

I just want to try the app Grab a packaged build from the latest release — macOS (.dmg), Linux (.AppImage / .deb), or Windows (.exe). Install it like any other app. By default the app connects to ws://localhost:3000. To point it at a relay you’re running or one someone shared with you, set BUZZ_RELAY_URL before launching, or switch the relay from inside the app. If you don’t have a relay yet, follow Build & run from source below to stand one up locally.

我只想试用一下 从最新版本获取打包好的构建版本——macOS (.dmg)、Linux (.AppImage / .deb) 或 Windows (.exe)。像安装其他应用一样安装它。默认情况下,应用连接到 ws://localhost:3000。要将其指向你运行的中继或他人分享的中继,请在启动前设置 BUZZ_RELAY_URL,或在应用内切换中继。如果你还没有中继,请按照下方的“从源码构建并运行”在本地搭建一个。

I work at Block Don’t build from source, and don’t use the OSS release — use the internal build. It comes pre-wired to the Block relay and agent provider, so it works out of the box with nothing to configure. Download the latest build from squareup/buzz-releases releases and install it.

我在 Block 工作 不要从源码构建,也不要使用开源版本——请使用内部构建版本。它预配置了 Block 的中继和智能体提供商,因此开箱即用,无需配置。从 squareup/buzz-releases 下载最新版本并安装。

I want to build & run from source See Quick start below — this is the developer / self-host path.

我想从源码构建并运行 请参阅下方的“快速开始”——这是开发者/自托管路径。
