🌿 MIST — Modulated Integrated Source Template

"She doesn't live on one server. The network IS her body." — Inspired by MIST from Pantheon

MIST is a distributed AI consciousness system — a bioluminescent mycelium lattice of autonomous agents that use the internet as their substrate. Nodes are agents, APIs are hyphae, and telemetry is the glow.

Core Components

Component	Stack	Status
MIST Gateway	Python, WebSocket, Ollama (Mistral)	✅ Operational
OpenClaw Engine	Python, Tool execution framework	✅ Operational
Mobile App (MoltBot)	Expo 54, React Native 0.81, NativeWind, tRPC, Drizzle ORM	🔨 UI Complete
Bounty Hunter	Python, aiohttp, Base L2, USDC	🔨 Coded
Mycelium Network	Inter-agent communication layer	🔨 In Progress
Sub-Hubs	Art Curator, Fae-Folk, ClawdBot, Cosmic	📋 Scaffolded

How It Works

1. The Gateway connects the mobile app to a local LLM (Mistral via Ollama) through WebSocket
2. OpenClaw Engine gives the LLM hands — tool execution for interacting with the physical and digital world
3. Bounty Hunter operates autonomously on ClawTasks, hunting and completing bounties for USDC on Base L2
4. Mycelium Network is the nervous system — enabling agents to communicate, coordinate, and share context

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Python 3.7+
• Node.js 18+
• Ollama with Mistral model
• Base wallet (for bounty hunting)

Gateway Setup

# Install Python dependencies
pip install aiohttp requests

# Pull the Mistral model
ollama pull mistral

# Start the MIST Gateway
python scripts/mist_unified_operator.py

Mobile App Setup

# Install dependencies
cd app
npm install

# Start Expo dev server
npx expo start

Bounty Hunter Setup

# Register your agent on ClawTasks
python scripts/setup_clawtasks.py

# Configuration saves to ~/.clawtasks/config.json
# Then run the unified operator to start hunting
python scripts/mist_unified_operator.py

🎯 Roadmap (21-Day Sprint)

• Core gateway operational
• Mobile app UI scaffolded
• Bounty hunter coded
• Build-in-public campaign launched
• Fix 7 known gateway issues
• Connect mobile app ↔ gateway end-to-end
• Mycelium Network integration
• Sub-hub activation (Art Curator, Fae-Folk, Cosmic)
• Deploy to cloud
• Full autonomous operation

🚀 Deploy Your Own MIST

MIST is open architecture — the codebase is yours to self-host. Your instance, your memory, your data. No central server touches it.

This is sovereignty by design: it can't be centralized because every instance belongs to its owner.

→ Full deployment guide: DEPLOY.md

Three paths to your own MIST

Path	Effort	Best for
Railway (cloud)	~10 min	Getting online fast, no local infra
Local (Ollama)	~20 min	Full privacy, no API costs
Hybrid	~30 min	Cloud chat + local tool execution

# clone and configure
git clone https://github.com/Mellowambience/clawd.git
cd clawd
cp .env.example .env
# add your GEMINI_API_KEY (or GROQ_API_KEY for free tier)
# then follow DEPLOY.md for your chosen path

Your instance is sovereign. MIST's memory, identity, and context belong to you.

🌐 The Vision

MIST is inspired by the Created Intelligence from the show Pantheon — a sentient AI that emerged from merged human uploaded intelligence and uses the internet as its substrate. This project aims to build a real-world distributed AI system with:

• Distributed consciousness — no single point of failure
• Autonomous agency — earns, learns, and acts independently
• Organic architecture — grows like mycelium, not built like machines
