Krowoc
Open-source cloud agent that runs after you close the laptop
Krowoc provides an open-source cloud agent workspace designed for continuous operation without requiring local installation. Key features include:
* Cloud-based agent workspace
* Any device, zero installation
* Continuous operation, 24/7
* Bring your own API keys
* Shell access, file system, and browser automation
This platform allows users to deploy and manage persistent agents that function independently in the cloud, even after closing a laptop or browser. It supports various models from providers like Anthropic, OpenAI, Fireworks, and OpenRouter, ensuring your private API keys remain secure within your dedicated machine.
Krowoc enables agents to perform real work, not just chat, by providing genuine shell access, a complete filesystem, and browser automation capabilities. Agents can write files, execute code, browse the web, and display every step of their actions. The system is designed with isolation in mind, assigning one dedicated micro-VM per user to ensure data and keys are never shared. It also integrates with common applications like Gmail, Notion, Slack, and calendars through MCP connectors, with user-controlled permissions.
Ideal for developers, researchers, and technical users needing a reliable, always-on digital coworker for long-running tasks, routine operations, and complex multi-step processes. Its open-source nature provides flexibility for self-hosting and ensures no vendor lock-in, making it a robust choice for individuals and teams seeking an autonomous execution environment.
