ArgentOS Core

The Operating System for Personal AI

CI MIT Stars Discord

Website · Docs · Marketplace · Discord


ArgentOS is a personal AI operating system that runs on your hardware, speaks through your channels, remembers your context, and works autonomously on your behalf. Core is the free, open-source foundation.

Latest Update

ArgentOS Core 2026.4.30 is live on main. This release brings the current personal AI OS foundation into one public build: first-class reminders inside Schedule, safer workflow and DocPanel output handling, Node 22 runtime pinning for more stable local services, richer AppForge and Argent Tables foundations, expanded AOS connector readiness, realtime voice/browser foundations, and clearer model/provider routing. See CHANGELOG.md for the full release narrative.

Install

Prerequisite: Homebrew (macOS) — the installer uses it for PostgreSQL, Redis, and system services.

curl -fsSL https://argentos.ai/install.sh | bash

macOS first. The installer handles Node, pnpm, PostgreSQL, Redis, Argent.app, and onboarding automatically.

Or from source:

git clone https://github.com/ArgentAIOS/argentos-core.git
cd argentos-core
pnpm install && pnpm build
bash install.sh

AOS And Marketplace

Core includes connector harnesses for services such as Slack, Teams, Discord, Airtable, HubSpot, Notion, GitHub, Stripe, Twilio, Zapier, WordPress, n8n, Monday, Make, Salesforce, Shopify, QuickBooks, and more. The ArgentOS Marketplace is the discovery and install path for additional skills, plugins, connectors, and workflow templates:

argent marketplace install <package>

Browse connectors, skills, plugins, and workflow templates. Every package is scanned with VirusTotal.

Contributing

We want Core to be community-driven:

  1. Star this repo — it helps more than you think
  2. Join Discord — this is where the community lives
  3. File issues — bugs, feature requests, questions
  4. Submit PRs — we review everything and good contributions ship fast
  5. Build connectors — the pattern is documented, each one helps the whole ecosystem

TypeScript (ESM), strict typing, Oxlint + Oxfmt. See CONTRIBUTING.md for details.

Business & Enterprise

It's all in this repo — open source, one codebase. That includes the governed-workforce layer:

  • Multi-agent workforce management (job templates, assignments, runs)
  • Execution worker with approval workflows
  • Job orchestrator for team scheduling
  • Intent simulation and runtime intent gates
  • Operations dashboard (Workforce Board, Org Chart, Worker Wizard)

Want it deployed and operated for your business? Titanium installs and runs ArgentOS for clients end to end.

Acknowledgments

ArgentOS stands on the work of others:

  • pi-mono by Mario Zechner (@badlogic) — the agent runtime core that ArgentOS builds upon. pi-mono provides the foundational agent loop, session management, and tool execution framework.
  • TOON — Token-Oriented Object Notation. ArgentOS uses TOON throughout the system to encode structured data for LLM prompts at 40-50% fewer tokens than JSON. Used in workflow pipeline context, agent handoffs, memory recall, tool results, task breakdowns, and team status.
