A team of AI agents that gets the job done on your own machine.

KodBot is an open-source desktop app where every chat is a real agent — Claude, Codex, or OpenCode running locally under the hood. Each bot has its own personality, model, computer, and connected apps. Talk to them like contacts. Watch them work. Approve what matters.

Windows: one-click installer, no admin rights. Linux: x64 .deb or AppImage. Android: sideloadable companion APK that pairs with your KodBot host.

KodBot desktop app: a Telegram-style chat list where every chat is a real AI agent

What you get

A messaging app for agents, with the controls you'd want before letting software act on your machine.

Pick a brain per bot

Claude, Codex, and OpenCode models side by side, in one picker. Switch a bot's model mid-conversation — or let Auto pick the strongest for the task.

Model picker with providers, capability icons, and defaults

Every bot gets a computer

A cloud Linux desktop it drives while you watch, or point the bot at your own machine. Take over in the browser any time.

Computer panel with a live screen preview

Bots ask before they act

Shell commands, file edits, and questions arrive as inline cards — Allow, Deny, or answer in chat. Every risky action becomes your decision.

Inline approval and question cards in chat

500+ connected apps

Gmail, Slack, GitHub, Notion, Linear and more through Composio. OAuth once, and every bot can use them as tools.

Connected apps marketplace with real app names

Teams and rooms

Group bots into teams with a leader, create shared team rooms, transfer leadership, and keep ungrouped bots where you expect them.

Your keys, your data

Bring your own subscriptions and API keys. Transcripts, keys, and events live in a local folder on your machine — not a cloud account.

Quick start

Install a packaged build, or run it from source. You need at least one agent CLI already installed and logged in.

Windows (x64)

One-click, per-user installer. Not code-signed yet, so SmartScreen shows "unknown publisher" — choose More info → Run anyway.

Download .exe

Linux (x64)

AppImage for any distro, or a .deb for Debian/Ubuntu. No separate server setup — the harness is embedded.

Download .AppImage Download .deb

Android

Companion app: sideload the APK, then scan the QR from the desktop's companion panel to pair. Android 8+.
