Wazi
Built at Meta Global AI Developer Hackathon · Oct 26, 2026 · Remote
Wazi means “open” in Swahili. Wazi is building a catalog and controlled deployment platform for open-source applications, helping people find software and run it on infrastructure they control. The current prototype is a private alpha for qualified Linux x86_64 hosts using Docker Engine and Compose. It connects application packages to host compatibility checks, policy checks, approval-bound deployment plans, and execution and health evidence. The repository also contains lifecycle and backup/recovery tooling, consent-controlled feedback export, and recorded Linux pilot evidence for a limited set of supported applications. The longer-term vision includes a broader app marketplace, installs to user-onboarded Wazi nodes or managed compute, cross-architecture packages, dependency advisories, and optional user diagnostics for developers. These are planned capabilities, not claims about the current prototype. The submitted runtime uses deterministic checks; it does not yet use Meta model inference.
