Open-source ChatGPT Enterprise alternative, built on the Codex runtime

LingX-AI released LinkSense, an open-source, self-hostable alternative to ChatGPT Enterprise built on the Codex runtime, which lets organizations run agent tasks and share governed Knowledge, Skills, Plugins, and Applications without exposing underlying credentials. LinkSense supports Linux and macOS hosts with Docker, and a Core evaluation requires at least 4 vCPU, 8 GiB of memory available to Docker, and 60 GiB of free SSD, with a Full profile adding built-in document parsing, indexing, and retrieval. The project connects business systems such as email, ERP, and CRM through connectors or MCP within configured permissions, and supports external model APIs or compatible self-hosted endpoints with per-user runtime resource limits.

LinkSense gives organizations one governed place to run agent tasks, share reusable Knowledge, Skills, Plugins, and Applications, and connect business systems without handing members the underlying credentials. Deploy it on your servers or private cloud, choose hosted or compatible local models, and keep task data and files on your own infrastructure.

LinkSense supports Linux and macOS hosts with Docker. A Core evaluation needs at least 4 vCPU, 8 GiB of memory available to Docker, and 60 GiB of free SSD. Full adds built-in document parsing, indexing, and retrieval and needs more capacity.

The fastest installation path is to give a coding agent this prompt:

Help me install and start LinkSense Core by following https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LingX-AI/linksense/main/Install.md

For a manual installation, choose Core or Full. The site covers host checks, Docker requirements, installation commands, and first-time setup.

  • 🤖 Agent execution and deliverables: research sources, operate tools, run code, analyze data, and produce documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and other files in a user Worker.
  • 🧩 Shared organizational capabilities: publish governed Knowledge, Skills, Plugins, and Applications for specific users and groups.
  • 🔗 Business system connections: connect documents, email, ERP, CRM, and other systems through connectors or MCP within configured permissions.
  • 🛡️ Access and governance: manage members, model credentials, quotas, usage, and audit records from one administration surface.
  • 🏠 Self-hosting and model choice: use your own infrastructure, external model APIs, or compatible self-hosted endpoints with per-user runtime resource limits.
  • ⚡ Flexible entry points: start work from the web workspace, messaging channels, or scheduled tasks.

Questions and feature ideas belong in GitHub Discussions. Organizations can opt in to the adopters list.

Choose the channel that best fits your question:

  • GitHub Discussions : Get help, share feedback, and propose ideas.
  • GitHub Issues : Report reproducible bugs and track engineering work. Read thecontribution guide before opening one.

The isolation boundary is the user Worker; tasks owned by the same user can access their shared files. Normal execution allows outbound internet access without per-command approval, and configured external services receive the data sent to them. Read the security policy before exposing a deployment. Report vulnerabilities privately to security@linksense.org.
