Cowork — AI Agents That Work Alongside You

AionUi is more than a chat client. It's a Cowork platform where AI agents work alongside you on your computer — reading files, writing code, browsing the web, and automating tasks. You see everything the agent does, and you're always in control.

Traditional AI Chat Clients AionUi (Cowork)
AI can operate on your files Limited or No Yes — built-in agent with full file access
AI can execute multi-step tasks Limited Yes — autonomous with your approval
Remote access from phone Rarely WebUI + Telegram / Lark / DingTalk / WeChat
Scheduled automation No Cron — 24/7 unattended
Multiple AI Agents at once No Dozens of external agents — including Claude Code, Codex, Qwen Code, Hermes Agent, Cursor Agent, and more — in one unified interface
Price Free / Paid Free & Open Source

AionUi Cowork Platform


Built-in Agent — Install & Go, Zero Configuration

AionUi ships with a complete AI agent engine. Unlike tools that require you to install CLI agents separately, AionUi works the moment you install it.

Built-in Agents

Office assistants — PPT, Word & Excel

These tracks match what the app actually ships: Morph PPT presets and the pptx / docx / xlsx skills. The canonical assistant catalog and built-in skills are maintained with AionCore. Want document/table output? AionUi’s built-in OfficeCLI helps PPT (Morph), Word (.docx), and Excel (.xlsx/.xlsm/.csv) go from request to deliverable faster and more reliably. The three assistant types map to file workflows, and the final outputs are directly editable and reusable.

PPT assistant

Output: editable Morph PPT (.pptx) Morph-animated slide-to-slide transitions with coherent story pacing; powered by OfficeCLI.

Morph PPT — slide-to-slide transitions (OfficeCLI) PPT assistant — screen recording

Word assistant

Output: editable Word (.docx) Paper/thesis writing and production-ready document editing via the docx skill; powered by OfficeCLI.

Generate academic paper demo Paper writing assistant demo

Excel assistant

Output: usable Excel (.xlsx/.xlsm/.csv) Generate/refresh spreadsheets with xlsx for analysis, auto-formatting, and charts; powered by OfficeCLI.

Multi-Agent Mode — Already Have CLI Agents? Bring Them In

If you already use Claude Code, Codex, Hermes Agent, or OpenClaw, AionUi auto-detects them and lets you Cowork with all of them — alongside the built-in agent.

Supported Agents: Built-in Agent (powered by the embedded aionrs agent engine) • Claude Code • Codex • Qwen Code • Gemini CLI • Goose • OpenClaw • Augment Code • CodeBuddy • Kimi CLI • OpenCode • Factory Droid • GitHub Copilot • Qoder • Mistral Vibe • Nanobot • Snow • Hermes • Cursor Agent • Pi • MiMo Code • omp • Antigravity • and more

Multi-Agent Cowork

Team Mode — Coordinated Multi-Agent Collaboration

Run multiple AI agents as an organized team: a Leader agent receives your instructions, breaks them into subtasks, and delegates to Teammate agents via a built-in Team MCP Server. Teammates execute in parallel, share results through an async mailbox, and write to a shared task board.

Team Mode overview

🔍 View Team Mode Details ▶️
  • Shared Workspace — all agents read/write the same folder; the file panel stays visible throughout
  • Supported backends — Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Snow CLI, Aion CLI (aionrs); other ACP backends with mcpCapabilities.stdio are auto-supported
  • Dynamic scaling — add or remove Teammates while the team is running; silent agents auto-escalate to failed with one-click removal
  • Granular permissions — each agent has its own permission confirmation dialog; sidebar badge shows pending approvals
  • File sharing — Leader can pass file attachments to Teammates

Any API Key, Full Cowork Agent Power

Other AI apps give you a chatbox with your API key. AionUi gives you a full Cowork agent.

Your API Key What You Get
Gemini API Key Gemini-powered Cowork Agent

✨ Cowork in Action

Scheduled Tasks — Cowork on Autopilot

Set it up once, the AI agent runs automatically on schedule — truly 24/7 unattended operation.

Scheduled Tasks

🔍 View Scheduled Task Details ▶️

Scheduling modes:

  • Cron expression — standard 5-field cron with timezone support (e.g. 0 9 * * 1, Asia/Shanghai)
  • Every N minutes/hours — fixed interval, e.g. run every 30 minutes
  • One-time — trigger once at a specified datetime, then auto-disable

Execution modes:

  • Continue in existing conversation — appends to the bound conversation so the AI retains full context history
  • Create new conversation each time — opens a fresh session on each trigger, ideal for independent periodic reports

Other capabilities:

  • Conversation-Bound — Each scheduled task is bound to a conversation, maintaining context and history
  • Automatic Execution — Tasks run automatically at scheduled times, sending messages to the conversation
  • Easy Management — Create, modify, enable/disable, delete, and view scheduled tasks anytime
  • Keep-awake — AionUi automatically prevents system sleep while tasks are active, and detects missed triggers after wake
  • Advanced config — each task can have its own model, workspace directory, and reasoning effort settings

What is this?AionUi is a free, open-source Cowork app for AI agents: they work alongside you on your computer — reading files, writing code, browsing the web, automating tasks 24/7 — while you see everything they do and stay in control.
Is this a desktop app or does it run in the browser?It is a cross-platform desktop app (built on Electron) with a built-in WebUI mode, so you can also reach it from a browser on your phone or tablet, or deploy it on a server.
How do I get it running?Install the app and paste any API key — the agent engine is embedded, so there are no CLI tools to install and no complex setup; a Docker/WebUI build exists for server use.
Do I need to install CLI agents like Claude Code first?No — the built-in agent works right after install with just an API key. But if you already use CLI agents like Claude Code or Codex, AionUi auto-detects them and runs them all in one interface.
What are the catches with full-auto and Team Mode?Unattended YOLO/full-auto mode is not uniform — available modes and permission behavior depend on the selected agent. In Team Mode the Leader-orchestration backends are limited to Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, Gemini, Snow CLI and Aion CLI.
Can it run fully locally without cloud APIs?Yes — point it at a local Ollama or LM Studio endpoint (as a custom platform) and you get a fully local Cowork agent with no cloud dependency.
Which CLI agents can I bring into it?Over 20: Claude Code, Codex, Qwen Code, Gemini CLI, Goose, OpenClaw, Augment Code, Kimi CLI, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot, Cursor Agent, Hermes and more. They run in parallel sessions with independent context, and MCP tools are managed in one place.
Can it create Office documents?Yes — the PPT assistant outputs editable Morph-animated .pptx, the Word assistant .docx, and the Excel assistant .xlsx/.xlsm/.csv, all powered by the built-in OfficeCLI; built-in skills also cover pptx, docx, pdf and xlsx.
Can I check on or control my agents from my phone?Yes — the WebUI works from any browser with QR-code or password login, and chat integrations let you Cowork through Telegram, Lark/Feishu, DingTalk or a personal WeChat account (WeCom, Slack and Discord are on the way).
Can it keep working while I am away from the keyboard?Scheduled tasks run unattended: a standard 5-field cron expression with timezone support, a fixed every-N-minutes/hours interval, or a one-time trigger — and the agent can even create new scheduled tasks by itself mid-conversation.
