CarrotAI

What is CarrotAI?

CarrotAI is a cutting-edge AI agent application that delivers real-time streaming chat via Server-Sent Events (SSE) and streamable HTTP with built-in Model Control Protocol (MCP) integration. It runs on a Flutter frontend + FastAPI backend and provides interfaces in English, Chinese, and Japanese for mobile, desktop, and web platforms.

How to use CarrotAI?

Clone the repository, set up environment variables (backend/.env and .env), start PostgreSQL, run the backend startup script, then deploy with Docker Compose. For manual setup, initialize the database and config, then run the backend server (python main.py). For the frontend, fetch Flutter dependencies, generate localization files, and run the app (flutter run). After launching, register/login via JWT, and interact with the AI agent in chat mode, optionally switching between SSE MCP servers in Settings.
