Project overview
Abu Cowork is a local-first desktop AI agent that can plan multi-step work, read and write files, run commands, control a real browser, and create documents or web pages from natural-language requests. Risky actions such as deletion, overwriting, sending, or installation can be placed behind a reviewable plan and explicit approval. Each conversation can use its own model and permission mode. The app also supports installable skills, MCP connectors, schedules, and team messaging channels for broader automation.
