Astromesh Leia

Astromesh Leia is a Claude Code plugin that gives you a natural-language interface — /leia ... slash commands — for creating, deploying, and managing AI agents on astromesh-nexus Kubernetes clusters. The goal is simple: go from a business idea to a deployed WhatsApp agent in minutes, with no Kubernetes expertise required.

Leia is named after a lemon beagle — approachable, loyal, and friendly. That personality carries into the plugin: you describe what you need in plain English, and Leia handles the cluster work behind the scenes.

  • A Claude Code plugin you install once and drive through /leia slash commands.
  • A conversational CLI: describe what you want in natural language, or use explicit subcommands.
  • An orchestrator that designs agent manifests, talks to the Nexus REST API over curl, and runs kubectl for cluster operations.
  • A batteries-included starter kit with business-vertical templates, specialized subagents, and bundled astromesh/v1 schemas.
  • It is not a SaaS — it runs locally inside your Claude Code CLI.
  • It is not a no-code GUI — it is a conversational command-line plugin.
  • It is not an agent framework — the agents it builds run on Nexus and its per-tenant nodes, not inside Leia.

Leia lives inside Claude Code and drives a Nexus cluster. Its components — commands, subagents, templates, and schemas — turn your intent into manifests and API calls; Nexus fans those agents out to per-tenant astromesh-nodes, which connect to WhatsApp and to local or cloud language models.

CommandsThe 10 /leia ... slash commands — your entry points for create, deploy, status, logs, test, and cluster lifecycle.
Agents (subagents)5 specialized subagents (interpreter, architect, operator, tester, doctor) that natural language routes to.
Templates6 complete astromesh/v1 business-vertical agent manifests you can deploy as-is or customize.
SchemasBundled references — the astromesh/v1 agent spec, orchestration patterns, WhatsApp config, and the Nexus API.
Nexus APIThe control plane Leia calls over REST + kubectl to provision tenants and sync agents.
astromesh-nodesThe per-tenant runtimes where agents actually execute and connect to WhatsApp, Ollama, and cloud LLMs.

Leia is the human-friendly front door to Nexus. You drive Leia; Leia drives Nexus; Nexus runs your agents on per-tenant nodes. See the ecosystem overview for how Leia, Nexus, and the nodes fit together.
