🔥 1Panel is a modern, open-source VPS control panel — and the only one with native AI agent support. Run Ollama models, deploy OpenClaw agents, and manage your entire server stack from one clean web interface.
1Panel is a Go-based VPS control panel that manages websites, Docker containers, databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis), SSL, backups, firewall rules, and cron jobs through a web UI. It targets self-hosters who want a modern alternative to cPanel or Webmin. The recent AI angle adds Ollama model management and a proprietary agent runtime called OpenClaw.
The service layer is genuinely well-structured — api/dto/model/repo/service separation is clean Go, not spaghetti. Coverage is broad and real: website management with OpenResty, multi-database support, snapshot/restore, fail2ban integration, and Docker management all in one binary. Active development with 35k stars and a claimed 2M installs suggests the app marketplace and update cadence are actually maintained, not vaporware. MCP server support and TensorRT LLM integration were added recently, so they're tracking real infrastructure trends rather than just rebranding old features.
The AI agent pitch is almost entirely proprietary ecosystem lock-in — OpenClaw, Hermes, ClawdBot, QwenPaw are all their branded wrappers. If you want just Ollama management, you're dragging in a whole undocumented agent platform. GPL v3 is a hard stop for anyone building commercial tooling on top of it, and the Pro tier ($80/year) gates WAF, uptime monitoring, and multi-node management — features that feel deliberately withheld rather than genuinely premium. The install method is the classic `bash -c $(curl ...)` pipe-to-shell pattern running as root, so the security posture of the control plane itself deserves scrutiny before trusting it to manage everything on your server.
