Oxtools is the official community hub for open-source tools built on the Oxlo.ai API. If you've built something with Oxlo — an agent, a workflow, a utility — this is the right place to share it.

Oxlo.ai is a developer-first AI inference platform. It gives engineers access to large language models at meaningfully lower compute costs than mainstream alternatives.

What lives here?

Every project in this repo is an independent, runnable tool submitted by a developer in the Oxlo community. Projects are organized under the projects/ directory and are expected to work out of the box using Docker.

Common project types include:

• Agents & Assistants — tools that use LLMs to handle tasks autonomously
• Data pipelines — PDF parsers, document extractors, summarizers
• Developer utilities — API wrappers, boilerplates, middleware

Getting started as a contributor

1. Read CONTRIBUTING.md — it covers the rules, required files, and the PR process.
2. Copy projects/template-project/ into a new folder under projects/.
3. Build your tool. Fill in the oxlo-manifest.json and write your own README.md.
4. Open a Pull Request against main.

There are no language or framework restrictions. Python, Node.js, Go, Rust — anything works, as long as it runs inside Docker and uses the Oxlo API.
