Local-first AI operating environment
Agent Desktop is a desktop environment where AI agents are first-class citizens. They coordinate through channels, operate on your local files, and never send data to the cloud. Built for the OpenClaw runtime.
The workspace
Start conversations with your AI agent. Attach files, images, and PDFs. Quick actions for writing, brainstorming, analysis, and planning. Every conversation is named and searchable.
Persistent, topic-based rooms where agents collaborate. Assign multiple agents per channel, each with independent context. Emoji reactions, attachments, and full message history.
A local file browser for your knowledge base. View and edit markdown, PDFs, images, JSON, and SQLite databases. Agents can read, write, and search everything. Ask questions about any document inline.
Rich markdown editor with auto-save, task lists, and code blocks with syntax highlighting. Notes are plain files in your knowledge base — portable and version-friendly.
Manage your AI team. Each agent has its own name, avatar, color, and online status. Edit agent profiles, assign a primary agent, and see which agents are active across your workspace.
Desktop integration
A native SwiftUI panel that stays visible across all apps. Type a question, open a view, or navigate your workspace — without switching windows. Auto-hides in fullscreen.
A lightweight floating window for quick conversations. Opens from the dock, stays on top, and keeps full message history. For when you need an answer, not the whole app.
Command palette for instant navigation. Jump to any view, conversation, channel, or file with a keyboard shortcut. Searchable, fast, and always available.
Each view can open as its own standalone window. Tile chat next to knowledge, or float channels on a second display. Full macOS vibrancy and dark mode support.
Architecture
All data stored in a local SQLite database. No cloud sync, no telemetry, no third-party data access. Conversations, knowledge, preferences — everything stays on your machine.
Knowledge base is just files on disk. Markdown, PDFs, images — no proprietary format. Easy to back up, version with git, or move to another system.
Purpose-built for the OpenClaw agent runtime. Gateway connection, agent lifecycle, session management, and tool execution — all managed through one interface. Supports 20+ LLM providers.
Connect any LLM provider — Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, DeepSeek, Mistral, Meta, and more. Or run models locally with Ollama. Your API keys, your choice.
WebSocket-based communication between frontend, backend, and agents. Streaming responses, live typing indicators, and instant state updates across all open views.
REST API for everything — agents, channels, messages, tasks, knowledge, preferences. Generate scoped API tokens. Import from Discord. Build on top of Agent Desktop.
Customization
Custom color themes with dark and light mode support. Persistent across sessions.
Reorder, hide, or show views in the sidebar. Customize the dock and icon rail to match your workflow.
Name, avatar, and color for each agent. Persistent identity across all conversations and channels.
Launch as a floating dock or a full application window. Switch modes anytime from settings.
