LiveAgent
A fully functional AI Agent desktop client that supports Webui access and can be creatively customized and expanded!
LiveAgent is a local-first AI agent desktop client for macOS, Windows, and Linux that connects multiple language models with native system tools and file operations. Built with Tauri 2, React, and Rust, it enables AI agents to read and write files, execute Bash commands, manage long-running processes, and expose local services via tunnels. The agent supports MCP protocol bridging for unlimited tool extensions, loads on-demand Skills packages, and maintains persistent memory with full-text search. An optional remote Gateway (Go-based) provides browser access to control the local agent from anywhere.

LiveAgent — FAQ
What is LiveAgent?+
LiveAgent is a local-first AI agent desktop application that integrates large language models with native system tools, enabling AI to perform file operations, run commands, manage processes, and automate tasks. It works standalone on macOS, Windows, and Linux without requiring cloud services.
How do I install LiveAgent?+
Download the installer for your platform from the GitHub Releases page: DMG for macOS, Setup.exe or MSI for Windows, or AppImage/DEB/RPM for Linux. macOS and Windows installers are signed and notarized; Linux users may need WebKitGTK 4.1 installed.
Do I need API keys to use LiveAgent?+
Yes, you need API keys for the language models you want to use (Claude, OpenAI Codex, or Gemini). Keys are stored locally on your machine and never sent to the Gateway or any third party.
Is the remote Gateway required?+
No, the desktop client works fully standalone with all local capabilities. Deploy the optional Gateway only if you need to access and control your local agent from a web browser remotely.
