Amigent

Amigent is an AI agent and remote desktop tool that connects a PC or Mac to a real Amiga over the home network.

Amigent connects a PC or Mac to a real Amiga over the home network, functioning as both an MCP server for AI agents and a remote desktop. Users can let an AI agent like Claude Code or Codex perform tasks such as installing software, updating programs, and copying files, or use the Amiga directly via a live screen window with mouse and keyboard control, file transfer, and a shared clipboard. It is built for slow Amigas and networks, allowing a 7 MHz 68000 to send its whole screen in under a second. The system supports simultaneous agent and human interaction so users can watch clicks and take over at any moment. It requires an Amiga with AmigaOS 2.04 or newer, a network connection, and a TCP/IP stack, alongside a PC or Mac running Windows, macOS, or Linux with Python 3.10 or newer.
