The limiter belongs in the gateway, not the handler — one place, every route. - Wrote gateway/limit.go and a test at 100 req/min per key. Tests pass. `api.hanzo.ai/v1/bot`[Open in the console](https://hanzo.ai/home) Example project. Every name in it is one you would give your own. What a bot is ## A teammate with its own computer Not a chat window. A bot has a computer of its own and works while you do something else. 01 ### Its own computer Each bot runs in its own sandbox with a browser, a terminal and your apps. Nothing it does touches your machine unless you let it. 02 ### Works where you work Sign it in once. It uses the same tools and websites you do, including the ones that are hard to automate. 03 ### Comes back when it is done Give it a task and go do something else. It returns with finished work and asks only when it needs your say. Give each bot a job ## One bot per job ### Inbox Sorts what came in, answers what it can, and parks drafts for your ok. ### Sales outreach Researches accounts, drafts messages in your voice, and leaves a review list. ### Research Reads, compares, and writes up what it found. ### Bug reproduction Reproduces the report, finds the failing step, and files it. ### Expenses Collects the receipts and files the report. ### Chief of staff Keeps the other bots on task and tells you what changed. Work with many at once ## Bots that hand work to each other ### One gateway, many bots Each bot has its own workspace, sign-ins and history, and each message goes to the bot it is meant for. ### Sub-agents A bot can start background runs that work in parallel and post what they found back in the chat that asked. ### Bots message bots One bot can read another’s session and send it a message, so a handoff needs no copy and paste. [How multi-agent works](https://docs.hanzo.bot/docs/concepts/multi-agent) Show it how it is done ## Teach it a routine once ### Skills Write the steps in a plain Markdown skill, and the bot uses it whenever the job comes up. ### On a schedule Every morning, or in twenty minutes. Scheduled jobs survive a restart and can post the result to a chat. ### Your say at each step A multi-step routine can stop at the steps you mark and wait for your yes before it goes on. [Skills in the docs](https://docs.hanzo.bot/docs/tools/skills) Gets better as it goes ## It remembers what it learns ### Memory is files Decisions, preferences and running notes go into Markdown files in its workspace, not into the model. ### It looks things up It searches those notes when it needs them, so what you told it last week still counts. ### Yours to read and fix Open the files, correct them or delete them. The next session starts from what you left. [How memory works](https://docs.hanzo.bot/docs/concepts/memory) How it starts ## Three steps 01 ### Name it and give it a job Say what you want done, in plain words. 02 ### Sign it in to your tools Once. It keeps the access it needs and nothing more. 03 ### Let it work It comes back when it is done, or when it needs you.
