Repo: plastic-labs/kyogre

Kyogre is the reference conversational app built on Honcho. It runs at my-honcho.plasticlabs.workers.dev and demonstrates end-to-end how a real product integrates Honcho’s session/peer model.

What it does

  • Chat UI with persistent memory via Honcho sessions (auth’d or guest-mode)
  • Slash commands: /artifact, /web-search, /theme, /identity, /wallet, /marketplace
  • AI-generated artifacts (HTML/React) rendered in resizable, draggable, sandboxed iframes
  • User-owned themes and identities (custom UI + custom AI personas)
  • Marketplace for selling/buying artifacts/themes/identities via the x402 microtransaction protocol on Base
  • Stripe subscription on top of free 20-msg/day tier (Cloudflare KV-backed rate limiting)

Stack

  • Frontend: React 19 + Vite + Tailwind 4 → Cloudflare Pages
  • Backend: Elysia (Bun) + Eden Treaty for type-safe client → Cloudflare Workers
  • Auth: Supabase (JWT + refresh-token flow with request deduplication)
  • Memory: Honcho SDK
  • Storage: Cloudflare R2 (artifacts, themes, identities, profiles, marketplace)
  • AI: Anthropic / OpenAI / Google / Groq / OpenRouter via the AI SDK
  • Payments: Stripe + x402 (Coinbase CDP SDK, USDC on Base)
  • Observability: Sentry + Langfuse

Where it fits in the system

Kyogre is a consumer of Honcho — it talks to a Honcho instance over HTTP and stores all conversation state there. It does not deploy to Fly.io alongside the rest of our backend; it runs entirely on Cloudflare’s edge network. It’s a load-bearing showcase for how the SDK is meant to be used.

How to run locally

# Backend
cd backend
bun install
bun wrangler dev      # http://localhost:8787
 
# Frontend (separate terminal)
bun install
bun run dev           # http://localhost:5173

Both .env files need to be filled in — see the README for keys.

Repo layout

  • src/ — React SPA
  • backend/ — Elysia API on Cloudflare Workers
  • shared/ — types and Zod schemas used by both sides (single source of truth for the API contract)
  • supabase/ — schema and migrations

Notes

  • TypeScript SDK is @honcho-ai/sdk v2.x — see SDK release workflow.
  • Cloudflare Workers cap CPU time at 1000ms; LLM calls stream to keep responses responsive.
  • KV-based usage limits are eventually consistent — design accordingly.
