Kortix：团队自托管AI工作平台

The open-source AI Operating System

Kortix The open-source AI Operating System The leading open-source alternative to Claude Cowork and ChatGPT Work. Website · Documentation · Cloud · Manifesto Agents that deliver finished work — reports, decks, code, replies, deployed changes — are now a product category. Every version of it runs inside a model lab, on that lab's model, with your company's brain on their side of the wall. Kortix is the one you own. It's an open-source AI Operating System: your agents, the skills they share, your company memory, and every connector live in one git repo — versioned, diffable, and shared by the whole company. The agents work on real cloud computers — an isolated sandbox per session, on its own branch — and land what they produce through a change request a human approves. Any model, your own API keys, your own infrastructure or our managed cloud. Kortix is right for you if ✅ You want an open-source, self-hosted alternative to Claude Cowork or ChatGPT Work for your whole team → details ✅ You want AI agents in Slack or Microsoft Teams that use your tools and reply in the thread → details ✅ You want background coding agents in the cloud: a sandbox and a branch per task, and a change request you review → details ✅ You want to replace Zapier-style automations with AI agents that run on a schedule or a webhook → details ✅ You want an "AI employee" that does the work and waits for a person's approval before it acts → details ✅ Your security team needs governed agents: per-tool rules, approval gates, an audit trail, SAML SSO, your own VPC → details ✅ You want an AI Operating System to run a company with agents: every agent, skill, memory file and connector in one git repo → details ✅ You want to sell an agent platform under your own brand: your logo, your structure, Kortix underneath → details Kortix is probably not the right fit if you want a visual flowchart of fixed steps (a workflow builder such as n8n does that well), or only a chat window over your documents (Onyx, Open WebUI or LibreChat).

Kortix and other open-source tools If you are looking at… Pick it when Pick Kortix when n8n (workflow automation) The job is a fixed flowchart: the same steps, in the same order, every time. The job is open-ended work an agent does on its own computer (research, a report, a fix), with the configuration in git and a person approving what it changes. OpenHands (coding agents) You want a coding-agent control center for an engineering team. Coding is one of many jobs: the same agents also work in Slack, on schedules and across 3,000+ apps, and every session is a sandbox on its own branch. Paperclip (agent orchestration) You already run agents such as Claude Code or Codex and want an org chart, budgets and a task board on top of them. You want the platform to run the agents too: each session on its own cloud computer, from one repo that holds the agents, skills, memory and connectors. Onyx, Open WebUI, LibreChat (chat and search) You want a chat window or search over company documents. You want agents that return finished work and take real actions in your tools, not only answers. Quickstart Three commands. Build your company like a codebase, then bring it live. # 1 · Install the CLI curl -fsSL https://kortix.com/install | bash # 2 · Scaffold a project — creates kortix.yaml + your agents, skills and runtime config kortix init # 3 · Ship it — pushes your repo and brings the whole thing live in the cloud kortix ship That's the loop. From here: kortix sessions new --prompt "Summarize this week's commits and open a change request" kortix cr ls # review what an agent proposes — merge to keep it kortix chat # talk to a session's agent from your terminal Prefer zero setup? Sign up at kortix.com, create a project, and start a session — nothing to install. Full command surface: CLI reference. A company is going to be a git repository Not as a metaphor — literally something you can clone. Inside it: your agents, the skills they've built up, the way the work actually gets done, every fact the company has learned, and the definition of the machines it all runs on. Versioned. Diffable. Owned outright. project (git repo + kortix.yaml) └─ session ──> cloud computer: an isolated sandbox on a branch named after the session └─ the OpenCode agent works └─ change request ──> you review & merge ──> main Every session gets its own cloud computer — a disposable, isolated Linux sandbox on its own branch. The agent can install, run and break anything; only what it commits survives. Work reaches main only through a change request you approve, so the company self-improves one reviewed change at a time. Run thousands of sandboxes in parallel on the same config, each fully isolated, each feeding work back through change requests. You can grep your entire company.
