# Introducing Moltworker: a self-hosted personal AI agent, minus the minis

**[AI](https://daily.dev/sources/ai)** · [@johnnie88](https://daily.dev/johnnie88) · 2 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Moltworker enables running Moltbot (an open-source AI personal assistant) on Cloudflare's infrastructure without dedicated hardware. Built using Cloudflare Workers, Sandbox SDK, Browser Rendering, and R2 storage, it demonstrates how the platform's improved Node.js compatibility and developer tools can host complex AI agents. The implementation includes AI Gateway integration for model management, Zero Trust Access for authentication, and persistent storage through R2. The proof-of-concept is open-sourced on GitHub, requiring only a $5/month Workers subscription to deploy.
