This jingle probably pre-dates most of you. That said, it’s still stuck in my head.

Mike White here, VP of Open Source at Sangoma. I wanted to drop a quick line to share something I’ve been working on for a bit.

I’ve released an open source module for FreePBX called Frogman. The idea is pretty simple: Let AI use a set of tools that will allow it to configure, diagnose, and manage FreePBX. This opens the door for quite a bit, just know that this is a traditional freepbx module and it doesn’t install AI on the box- it just makes the PBX headless. Standard methods apply and there are currently around 220 tools to choose from.

Right now it exposes three interfaces. Anything that’s created/destroyed will require human confirmation…

1: MCP for AI agent integration: The headless part- I’ve done things like build out a system just by telling Claude what to create… with my voice- I’ve even uploaded a hand drawn diagram, told the MCP client to build it and it can, easily.

2: Interactive chat console: screenshot details below- why let the ai agents have all of the fun? This is an onboard chat console that takes natural language input to perform functions within the interface with zero clicking around. It can onboard new users, diagnose extension, and much more. Just type “diagnose 101”

3: API layer for automation and external tooling: looking to build an app that can talk to freepbx? Frogman exposes all 220 tools. You can generate API keys with read/write/admin permissions directly from the chat console.

What this is…
- an experiment… The first of its kind perhaps?
- a new way to manage FreePBX

What it’s not…

- an LLM running on FreePBX
- ready for production systems - feeling brave? Proceed with caution

Still early, but I think this is a pretty interesting direction for the project. Curious to hear what you think. AMA

Ran this in 25 - there’s an in car vid of my 799 Scirocco running the course on the vid page. Great route and Tom the organizer runs a well oiled program. Honestly, probably one of the most well organized grassroots events I’ve ever participated in. Can’t make it this year or I’d be back at it for 26’

Check it out. After party/banquet was a blast too.
