// AGENT FACTORY

AI Village

Think "Build-a-Bear," but you leave with your own AI agent stack. Deepfakes, challenges, and hands-on builds await.

Welcome to the Build-a-Bot Workshop, the 2026 evolution of the SAINTCON AI Village. This year we aren’t just hacking and chatting with AI models; we’re giving them life. Whether you’re a first-time tinkerer or a seasoned prompt-engineer, the AI Village is your factory floor to build a local model of your choice.

Come learn to assemble and deploy your own AI agents and builds. Our volunteers help everyone who has explored the challenges turn a working configuration into something they can keep expanding on.

Build your stack

n8nLM StudioOllama + OpenclawKali MCPClaude CodeAntigravity

We have challenges for you in familiar and new flavors, both fun and educational for all levels. Learn about the latest in development with Claude Code and Antigravity, dig into local small models, and discover fun combos of tech to get the most out of your home builds.

The Deepfake Studio

When the "work" is done, head over to our Deepfake Studio to see the latest in cinematic real-time puppetry, or get scored by the Hacker Evaluator 2.0. Create an AI video or artwork while you're there.

We’ve got the parts; you’ve got the brains. Let’s build something dangerous (and fun).
