owrap is a local Go-based CLI and web UI wrapper around Ollama that:

• Works in both terminal and web UI modes
• Keeps all interactions local on your machine (no external API calls)
• Sends your messages to the Ollama HTTP chat endpoint with your configured model
• Executes allowlisted shell commands when explicitly requested by the model, captures stdout/stderr, and feeds the output back to continue the conversation
• Maintains session logs (user/assistant messages, statistics) in memory with /save and /load support for /tmp/sessions
• Provides comprehensive slash commands for help, stats, cached blocks, file execution, session management, and more
• Supports file uploads in web UI - upload text/code files for one-time analysis with custom prompts
• Enables dynamic system prompt editing - switch between predefined prompts or create custom ones on-the-fly (terminal: /editsysprompt, web UI: Edit sys-prompt button). More here
• [beta version] Features autonomous mode in web UI - agent continuously works toward user-defined goals, executing commands, analyzing files, collecting information, and generating reports until completion. Supports optional file attachments as reference/knowledge base. More here

owrap is available in two modes (terminal and web UI) and as a Docker image: michalsw/owrap:latest (all descriptions below).

Docker image is available for both architectures/platforms linux/amd64 and linux/arm64.

Allowed commands to use in owrap are here. NOT all of them are included in docker image.

env vars are the same OLLAMA_URL, OLLAMA_MODEL etc.

$ docker run -d --rm \

$ docker stop owrap

# System Prompts

The system prompt defines the assistant's behavior and capabilities. The default prompt is defined here.

Predefined prompts available in ./prompts/:

• apps_developer.txt - Application development assistant
• cloud_engineer.txt - Cloud infrastructure and DevOps helper
• japanese_teacher.txt - Japanese language learning assistant
• local_network_recon.txt - Local network reconnaissance guide
• web_recon.txt - General web (OWASP based) reconnaissance assistant
• shell_command_assistant.txt - Shell command helper and executor
• prompt_engineer.txt - System prompts creation assistant

How to use:

• At startup: SYSTEM_PROMPT=./prompts/shell_command_assistant.txt ./owrap
• At runtime: Use /editsysprompt (terminal) or Edit sys-prompt button (web UI)
• View current: Use /sysprompt (terminal) or Show sys-prompt button (web UI)
• Review your prompts: Use /myprompts (terminal) or /myprompts button (web UI) to see all your prompts from the current session. In web UI, click any prompt to reuse it. They might be saved (/save) and restored (/load) when restoring the session.

Creating custom prompts: Create a .txt file in the ./prompts/ directory with your instructions. The prompt should define the assistant's role, capabilities, and response format

# Autonomous Mode

Web UI Only [beta version]

Autonomous mode enables the AI agent to work continuously and independently toward a user-defined goal until completion or manual stop. Unlike regular chat mode where each message requires user input, autonomous mode operates in a self-directed loop.

Works best with larger models (more parameters), tested with gemma3:12b and mistral:7b.

Because it's beta version it would require more work to improve the way how models achieve defined goals [inprogress].

How to Use:

1. Click /autostart button in web UI
2. Enter your goal (e.g., "Find IP, owner, and technologies used by example.com")
3. Optionally attach a file for reference (Choose File button)
4. Click "🚀 Start Autonomous Work"
5. Watch the agent work continuously until goal completion
6. Use /autostop to manually stop if needed

Example Use Cases:

• Network reconnaissance: "Scan 192.168.1.0/24 network and create a report of all active hosts and open ports"
• File analysis: "Analyze this Apache access.log file and identify the top 10 most common errors"
• Data processing: "Extract all email addresses from this document and save them to a file"
• Research: "Research Azure Firewall features using the attached documentation and create a deployment guide"
• Multi-step tasks: "Check website availability, analyze SSL certificate, test DNS records, and generate security report"

Key Features:

• Goal-Oriented: Define a high-level objective (e.g., "analyze the network security of domain.com and create a detailed report")
• Continuous Operation: Agent executes commands, analyzes results, and plans next steps automatically without user intervention
• Multi-Capability: Combines command execution, file analysis, data collection, and report generation
• File Attachments: Optionally attach reference files (configs, documentation, data files) that serve as a knowledge base
  • Files are saved to /tmp/owrap_autonomous_files/<sessionId>/
  • Agent can use command-line tools (cat, grep, jq, awk, etc.) to analyze attached files
  • Useful for tasks like "analyze this log file and identify errors" or "create a report based on this configuration"
• Smart Iteration: Agent tracks command history, avoids duplicate commands, and learns from failures
• Auto-Stop: Automatically stops when goal is achieved or proven impossible
• Manual Control: /autostop button available for manual interruption at any time

Notes:

• All actions are logged and can be reviewed during execution
• Commands are subject to the same allowlist as regular mode

# Examples

adjust the system prompt for you needs. it's very important because your answers depends on it. run app.

example0 - check model and stats

------------------------------------------------------------
You: hi, what model are you?
Assistant: I'm Gemma, a large language model created by the Gemma team at Google DeepMind. I'm an open weights model, which means I'm widely available to the public.
------------------------------------------------------------
You: /s
Session stats:
  User messages:      1
  Assistant messages: 1
  Commands run:       0
  User chars total:   23
  Assistant chars:    154
------------------------------------------------------------

example1 - is to get the actual weather with enabled analysis /auto-on (by default model won't analyze input and output)

------------------------------------------------------------
You: /auto-on
Auto-analysis enabled (after commands).
------------------------------------------------------------
You: check the actual weather on this website wttr.in/wroclaw
Assistant: I am unable to directly access external websites or execute shell commands to retrieve real-time information like weather data. Therefore, I cannot check the weather on wttr.in/wroclaw.
------------------------------------------------------------
You: check the actual weather on this website wttr.in/wroclaw. use curl.
[Running]: curl wttr.in/wroclaw
[Command output]:
Weather report: wroclaw

                Overcast
       .--.     +2(-2) °C
    .-(    ).   ↙ 19 km/h
   (___.__)__)  10 km
                0.0 mm
(...)
Assistant (analysis): {"action": "answer", "text": "The wttr.in weather report for Wrocław, Poland indicates the following:

*   **Current Conditions:** Overcast.
*   **Temperature:** +2°C (feels like -2°C)
*   **Wind:** 19 km/h (↙)
*   **Precipitation:** 0.0 mm.
*   **Forecast:** The forecast for the next few days (Tue-Thu) shows sunny conditions with temperatures ranging from -4°C to -3°C and winds between 9-27 km/h. The report also provides a link to @igor_chubin for further updates."}

example2 - to allow specific commands to be run you have to adjust them in this file

------------------------------------------------------------
You: what is your proposal to find an IP of a website, please check IP of this website https://michalswi.azurewebsites.net/
[Running]: nslookup michalswi.azurewebsites.net
[Command output]:
Command 'nslookup' is not allowed.
Assistant (analysis): The command 'nslookup' was blocked. This likely indicates a restriction in place to prevent direct DNS queries, possibly for security reasons or to avoid overloading the DNS servers.
------------------------------------------------------------

example3 - multi-line input + what to do (after EOF) add "execute and analyze"

------------------------------------------------------------
You: /p
Paste mode: end with a line containing only 'EOF'.
ping -c2 127.0.0.1
curl localhost:80
EOF
Add a question/instruction (optional, Enter to skip): execute and analyze
Assistant: Command output:

ping -c2 127.0.0.1
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data

64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.09 ms
