Apps, agents, and workflows — one local operating system that runs your entire AI team from a single browser tab. Free and open source.
Everything in ARK is built on three building blocks. Launch apps, delegate to agents, and wire them together with workflows — all from one tab.
Every project gets a launchpad tile. Start, stop, restart, assign ports — all auto-detected. One dashboard for every repo you're running.
Deck viewPersistent Claude Code sessions that live between conversations. Each agent has an ARK-aware system prompt and takes real actions through arkctl.
Multi-step automations described in plain English. Chain agents, schedules, and tasks together into pipelines that run themselves.
Workflows viewARK boots with a Captain agent that manages your whole fleet. Spin up as many crew members as you need — each gets a persistent Claude Code session, an ARK-aware system prompt, and access to arkctl.
Always-on agent that oversees ARK itself. Manages cross-cutting architecture, coordinates crew, and keeps the bridge running.
Built-inYour custom agents. Assign them to any project, give them a name and system prompt, and let them work in persistent terminal sessions.
You createThe CLI that connects everything. Agents create tasks, log work, start apps, and read crew state — all through one command.
Shared APINo config. No build step. Just paste and go.
Run npx arkhq in your terminal. ARK spins up on localhost and opens in your browser. Node 18+ required.
ARK opens automatically in your default browser at localhost:3000. No signup, no license key — it just runs.
Your projects auto-detect. The Captain is ready. Start assigning tasks, creating schedules, and building workflows.
Open source under MIT. Star the repo, fork it, or just npx arkhq and go.
