Openwork

Openwork is a free, open-source desktop app for macOS, Windows, and Linux that lets you use AI agents to get work done on your own files. It supports over 50 language models from providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google, and you bring your own API keys. The app is built on OpenCode and positions itself as an open-source alternative to Claude Cowork and Codex.

Instead of a single vendor lock-in, Openwork gives you the freedom to pick any LLM for each task. You describe what you need in plain English — like "open this Twitter thread, like all the replies, and extract user details into a CSV" — and the agent executes the steps. It can control your browser, analyze data, and interact with external tools via MCP servers. The standout feature is team sharing: you can package skills, MCP servers, plugins, and configs into a single link. A teammate clicks that link and imports everything instantly, no setup instructions needed.

Openwork works well for teams that want to standardize AI workflows without forcing everyone to be technical. The free desktop mode keeps files local; cloud plans add hosted workers and API access for enterprises. It's also useful for developers who want to point their own agent (like Codex or Cursor) at the team's shared resources. The FAQ clarifies that even non-technical users can import shared setups with one click, making it accessible beyond just engineers.
