What Suparagent is
- Named coworkers: each agent has a name, role, engine, workspace, memory and approval settings, with templates and skills to start from.
- Engines you already use: Claude Code or Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Google Gemini through Antigravity, Cursor, other CLI agents through the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), OpenRouter, or OpenAI-compatible APIs such as Ollama or LM Studio. No model is included.
- Work and schedules: a task board and calendar to assign work, schedule one-time runs and review attempts, and routines that run on a schedule, by webhook or on demand while the backend is running.
- Teams of agents: a lead agent (Claude or Codex) delegates to specialists, and agents coordinate in shared rooms.
- Approvals: Ask first, Accept edits, Approve for me (Claude, Codex and Cursor) and Plan only. A routine never approves an action by itself, and a Today view gathers approvals, questions and routine outcomes.
- Open source under Apache 2.0 at github.com/Anil-matcha/suparagent, with about 7,050 stars on November 13, 2026 in a repository created in May 2023. It's early and changing: the self-hosted server, Docker computers, browser tools and the macOS native desktop preview are experimental.

How to set up Suparagent
Choose where it runs
Run the desktop app from a source checkout (the installers on GitHub Releases are experimental and unsigned), set up a self-hosted Linux server, or use the hosted web app at suparagent.ai.
Create an agent
Give it a name, a role, an engine such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI or Cursor, a workspace and an approval mode, or start from a template.
Give it work
Assign tasks on the board, or set routines to run on a schedule, by webhook or on demand; the backend has to stay running. Approvals, questions and outcomes collect in the Today view.

AI employees with goals, hours and a heartbeat
Suparagent runs named coworkers on the engine you choose. Crewmark turns your own Claude Code or Codex sessions into AI employees with a role, goals in numbers, working hours and a heartbeat, each taking issues from a shared board.
Pick a role
Start from the AI employee roles and set the goals in numbers.
Put the work on a board
Assign issues on the shared board; during its working hours, the heartbeat wakes the employee to take the next one.

Suparagent FAQ
What is Suparagent?
An open-source workspace for AI coworkers. You create named agents with a role, memory, routines and approval settings, and they run on an engine you already use, such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI or Cursor. It was called Open Dots, then Open Duet, until the rename on November 9, 2026.
Is Suparagent free?
The code is Apache 2.0, and no Suparagent fee is stated for the desktop app or a self-hosted server; you pay your model provider. The README lists hosted plans: a Free preview at $0 (sandbox compute billed to your Boat account), Starter at $15 a month, Standard at $49 and Pro at $99.
Which AI agents does Suparagent work with?
Claude Code or Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Google Gemini through Antigravity, Cursor, other CLI agents through the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), OpenRouter, and OpenAI-compatible APIs such as Ollama or LM Studio.
