Open source,
for people who read source.

Banana Labs isn't a company. It's the name I put on the things I build for the fun of it, then give away. Engines, libraries, and tools — MIT, no signup, no catch. If you read source, you're home.

note: here you get the raw engine. The paid, just-works versions live at monkeylabs.gg. Bring your own terminal.

The shelf.

Everything here is free to clone, read, fork, and ship. It's MIT — do what you want with it, just keep the license notice in the source.

BANANALABS(1)    General Commands Manual    BANANALABS(1)

Name

bananalabs — the open-source side of one developer's work.

Description

Same hands run Monkey Labs, the company — the difference is posture, not people. Free and for the fun of it lives here; paid and polished lives there. Bananagine is open; Sessions.gg is the product built on it.

Philosophy

# extension over invention
Orchestrate mature primitives — Docker, WASM, OAuth — instead of reinventing them.
# free means free
MIT, no telemetry, no signup. Clone it and go. Trust is the only currency here.
