# Introduction

**Make AI do the work on your computer—not just talk about it**

Open source, single Go binary that runs on your computer. From live research and file work to automation, Agenvoy takes action and delivers results; through MCP, it shares sandboxed tools with Claude Code, Codex, and other agents.

## Taiwan-developed AI Agent Harness

Agenvoy is a Taiwan-developed AI Agent Harness by [邱敬幃 Pardn Chiu](https://github.com/pardnchiu), built to turn conversation into completed work on your computer. It coordinates models, context, tools, real-time data, task routing, memory, schedules, and execution in one workflow, while keeping control of your files and environment in your hands. Through the Web interface, it also supports real-time voice conversation you can interrupt mid-sentence, which hands work to the chat agent and narrates its progress aloud; the full result remains available in the chat.

## Why Agenvoy

A chat can give you an answer; work needs a result. Agenvoy breaks requests into steps, calls tools, and delivers outcomes on your computer—while you retain control of files, tools, schedules, and working context.

- **Turns conversation into deliverable work** — Research live data, organize files, and complete multi-step tasks with an agent that acts and reports the result.
- **Fills capability gaps itself** — Creates, tests, and keeps a new tool when no suitable one exists, ready to reuse next time.
- **Shares one tool library across agents** — Agenvoy, Claude Code, Codex, and other agents use the same sandboxed tools instead of rebuilding them.
- **Keeps automation running** — Create schedules in one sentence; recurring work runs in your environment and pushes the result.
- **Makes every step visible and controllable** — Command output streams to the TUI and Web dashboard, while sensitive paths and restricted actions still require confirmation.
- **Connects models and external services freely** — Route models by task and configure image generation, STT, TTS, stdio/HTTP MCP servers, and OAuth.
- **Runs 24/7 as your personal AI assistant** — A background daemon keeps schedules, channels and tools running after you close the TUI; turn on **Startup on login** in `/config` (launchd agent on macOS, systemd user unit on Linux) to bring it back after every reboot.
- **Provides private access from anywhere** — The local daemon connects outward to Telegram and Discord, without making your host public or opening inbound ports.

## Who it's for

If you want AI to complete work—not merely respond—within an environment you control, Agenvoy is for you:

- People who want to turn research, file work, and recurring reporting into reusable automation
- Developers who want a self-hosted agent with local data control and sandbox guardrails
- Teams that want Claude Code, Codex, and other agents to share tools instead of rebuilding them
- Technical operators who need private access to a local agent through the Web, Telegram, or Discord
