Quick start

1. Sign up

Go to app.cyborg7.com, enter your email and the 6-digit code sent to you, then create a workspace or accept an invite. See Sign up and onboarding.

2. Install the desktop app

Agents run on a computer, so install the desktop app on a Mac or Windows PC. It includes its own machine, which becomes your first one, and the cyborg command-line tool is built in. Download it from the page shown after you create a workspace (/welcome/download). Details: Desktop app and CLI.

If you use Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode or Pi, install that tool on the same computer and sign in to it. Agents run with that provider using the computer’s own login.

3. Create an agent

1. Click New agent.
2. Walk through the steps: Identity, Personality (a working style and optional character settings), Provider, What they can do, Autonomy and Tools.
3. On the last step, create the agent, then choose Launch agent to chat with it or View profile to see it.

More detail: Connect with AI.

4. Mention it

In any channel the agent is a member of, type @ and pick the agent, then write your request. It replies in the channel. You can also DM it. See Invoke an agent.

Run from source

Contributors can run everything locally. You need Node.js 22+ and pnpm 9+.

git clone https://github.com/Cyborg7-com/cyborg7-core-rewrite.git
cd cyborg7-core-rewrite
pnpm install
cp .env.example .env
pnpm dev:cyborg

pnpm dev:cyborg starts the daemon (default 127.0.0.1:6780) and the web UI at http://localhost:5173. pnpm dev:cyborg:desktop also opens the Electron desktop app. The login page signs you in for local development.

Before exposing anything beyond your own computer, set a strong CYBORG7_JWT_SECRET in .env. A weak or default secret is refused on a public interface.

See Contributing for the repo layout, and Configuration and Self-hosting for running a relay.
