KairoxLocal-first AI agent workbench

A shared Rust core, terminal UI, Tauri desktop GUI, and embeddable SDK for observable, permission-aware AI agent workflows on your machine.

Event-sourced local runtime

Every session, tool call, permission decision, advisor review, autonomous checkpoint, and trajectory step is an event in SQLite. Restart any time — the UI rebuilds from the log.

TUI, desktop GUI, and SDK on one core

Use the ratatui TUI for fast keyboard workflows, the Tauri + Vue desktop app for persistent workbench sessions, or `agent-sdk` to embed the same runtime in your own harness.

Permission-aware multimodal tools and MCP

Approval × Sandbox policy gates every tool call. Built-in shell / filesystem / search / browser / computer-use tools, structured image attachments, LSP/DAP providers, and MCP marketplace servers stay composable and auditable.

Extensible autonomous workflows

Native skills, plugins, model routing, hooks, advisor self-reflection, autonomous task checkpoints, and per-workspace configuration are first-class. Bring your own model and your own tools.
