Abstract
We define a triply-graded invariant of links in a genus handlebody, generalizing the colored HOMFLYPT (co)homology of links in the 3-sphere. Our main tools are the description of these links in terms of a subgroup of the classical braid group, and a family of categorical actions built from complexes of (singular) Soergel bimodules.
