Local AI workbench
A local AI assistant that runs tasks, remembers, and automates — with one gateway for every model.
GoWork is a local-first AI workbench built around a resident assistant: an LLM-driven agent that understands a task and works through it step by step with real tools — reading and writing files, running commands, searching the web, generating images — or delegates the coding to Codex and Claude Code. It keeps long-term memory, runs scheduled jobs, and reaches you over IM. Underneath sits a unified model gateway that fronts your coding CLIs and API clients.
Positioning
For developers and small teams who want a private, always-on AI assistant that actually does the work — not just chats — with a single, controllable gateway in front of every model and coding CLI they already use.
Capabilities
GoWork
01
Runs a resident ReAct assistant: it reasons, calls tools, reads the results, and keeps going until the task is done — or until it needs your confirmation.
02
Acts directly on your machine: read and write files, run shell commands, search and fetch the web, generate images, and read PDF/Office documents — all inside a guarded workspace.
03
Delegates the coding to runtimes: hand a task to Codex or Claude Code, then stream, continue, or cancel the run.
04
Remembers across sessions: four-scope long-term memory — you, project, conversation, and run — that you can promote into reusable Skills.
05
Schedules and automates: declarative once / daily / weekly / monthly tasks that either remind you or wake the assistant to act.
06
Reaches you anywhere: DingTalk, Feishu, and Telegram (WeChat is experimental), pushing back text and images.
07
Stays safe and local: a default-deny tool policy with approval governance, plus one model gateway with account pooling and usage tracking — credentials and records stay in ~/.gowork.
