stealth

Why we included this project

Stealth gives Ruby developers a Rails-flavored way to build text and voice chatbots, borrowing the convention-over-configuration mindset so you get an MVC structure out of the box, with views renamed to replies. Sessions run on Redis with a state-machine model, and incoming webhooks are processed through a Sidekiq queue, so the framework handles the plumbing while you focus on conversation flows. Because it's a plain Rack app, you can deploy it almost anywhere, and variants let a single codebase target multiple messaging platforms, with separate gems for Facebook Messenger, Twilio SMS, Bandwidth, Smooch, and an early Alexa skill, plus optional NLP and analytics integrations. If you're already comfortable in the Ruby ecosystem, this gives you a structured way to get conversational flows up and running without reinventing the plumbing.
