LiveAgent

LiveAgent is a local-first AI agent desktop client that integrates language model reasoning with local system tools.

LiveAgent is a local-first AI agent desktop client that deeply integrates large language model reasoning with local system tools so the AI can operate your file system, run commands, and manage scheduled tasks. It features multi-model routing supporting Claude, Codex, and Gemini protocols, along with custom Base URL support for third-party services. The application provides rich rendering including streaming Markdown, KaTeX math, Mermaid diagrams, and Monaco code preview. For local execution, it handles file operations, regex search, non-ished Bash commands, and parallel sub-agent delegation. Additionally, it supports MCP protocol bridging for external tools, Skills packages, persistent memory with SQLite, and a remote Go gateway for browser access.
