🔓 Build in Public — Eigent is 100% open source from day one. Every feature, every commit, every decision is transparent. We believe the best AI tools should be built openly with the community, not behind closed doors.
The recommended way to run Eigent — fully standalone with complete control over your data, no cloud account required.
This setup includes:
- Local backend server with full API
- Local model integration (vLLM, Ollama, LM Studio, etc.)
- Complete isolation from cloud services
- Zero external dependencies
For a quick preview using our cloud backend — get started in seconds:
- Node.js (version 18-22) and npm
git clone https://github.com/eigent-ai/eigent.git
cd eigent
npm install
npm run devNote: This mode connects to Eigent cloud services and requires account registration. For a fully standalone experience, use Local Deployment instead.
After pulling new code (git pull), update both frontend and backend dependencies:
# 1. Update frontend dependencies (in project root)
npm install
# 2. Update backend/Python dependencies (in backend directory)
cd backend
uv syncFor organizations requiring maximum security, customization, and control:
- Exclusive Features (like SSO & custom development)
- Scalable Enterprise Deployment
- Negotiated SLAs & implementation services

Start with one focused agent for direct tasks. Research, write, debug, and operate alongside it in your desktop workspace.
Scale to multiple specialized agents that divide work, collaborate in parallel, and execute complex multi-step workflows together.
Schedule recurring workflows and let agents run tasks at the right time—so work continues even when you step away.
Run agents on your machine with local-first execution. Your files, credentials, and context stay under your control.
Connect the models you already use—cloud APIs, enterprise gateways, or local inference—without locking into one vendor.
Eigent is completely open-sourced. You can download, inspect, and modify the code, ensuring transparency and fostering a community-driven ecosystem for multi-agent innovation.
Explore how Eigent turns complex desktop work into repeatable agent workflows.
Coordinate parallel agents to build ten polished, mobile-friendly browser games across genres, complete with scoring, increasing difficulty, and restart flows.
Create a complete browser-based 3D platformer with snowball combat, enemy chains, scoring, lives, scaling difficulty, and layered environments.
Review a month of GitHub pull requests with a locally hosted model, generate a Word summary, and prepare the corresponding Slack release update.
Ask Eigent to inspect a cluttered desktop and organize files into a cleaner, more useful structure directly on your machine.
Orchestrate a multi-agent CI investigation that fetches logs, compares golden values, traces evidence, delegates deep reasoning, and produces structured audit reports.
