AionUi is a free, open-source "Cowork" desktop app where AI agents work alongside you on your computer: reading and writing files, writing code, browsing the web and automating tasks while you watch and approve. It ships with a built-in agent engine, so it works as soon as you add an API key, and it can also detect and run the command-line agents you already have, including Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Qwen Code, Goose and OpenClaw, in one interface.

It suits people who use several AI agents and want a single place to run them, as well as non-developers who want agent capabilities without installing CLI tools. Built-in assistants produce editable PowerPoint, Word and Excel files, Team mode lets a leader agent split work across teammate agents running in parallel, MCP tools are managed in one place for all agents, scheduled tasks run unattended, and you can reach it remotely through a WebUI or Telegram, Lark, DingTalk and WeChat.

Getting started: download the installer for macOS, Windows or Linux from the GitHub releases page, or run `brew install aionui` on macOS. Add an API key for the built-in agent, or let AionUi detect the CLI agents already installed on your machine.

This write-up is based on the project's README and public repository data. We have not hand-tested the tool. Data as of 2026-10-10.

Trade-offs

!The built-in agent has full file access, and some connected agents support unattended "YOLO" modes; choose workspaces and permissions carefully.
!Running many agents in parallel multiplies API costs.
!Feature depth for external agents depends on each agent's own capabilities and permission model.
