OpenAmer Agent | OpenAmer Desktop

OpenAmer is a self-improving, self-learning personal AI agent — a hardened, independently-developed fork of the agent architecture by Nous Research (MIT). We say so openly: OpenAmer does not hide its lineage. What we build on top of it — robustness, verifiability, and a real learning loop — is our own. Read the Vision.

⚡ Install in one line

Linux / macOS / Termux:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openamer/openamer/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

Windows (PowerShell) — native, no WSL, no admin:

iex (irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openamer/openamer/main/scripts/install.ps1)

Prefer a download? OpenAmer-2026.9.12-win-x64.exe — the signed Windows installer.

Then:

openamer setup    # choose a model provider (incl. free-of-cost routes)
openamer          # start the agent

Runs on your hardware, for nearly nothing. Local 2B brain + a free-cloud reasoning chain — 0 €/day, <1 kWh/day, no hosted tier, no telemetry. Use the OpenAmer free tier, a local Ollama/vLLM server, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint; a paid frontier key is optional, never required.


🔑 Or skip the API-key collection entirely

Don't want to hunt down five separate keys for the model, web search, image generation, TTS and a cloud browser? One command logs you in via OAuth, picks your model, sets OpenAmer as the inference provider, and opts into the Tool Gateway:

openamer setup --portal

Check what's wired up at any time with openamer portal. No lock-in — any provider still works, and nothing here is required.

Coming from OpenClaw? OpenAmer imports your settings, memories, skills and API keys:

openamer claw migrate --dry-run    # preview first, then drop --dry-run

🧬 Darwin Engine — Skills That Evolve Themselves

Exclusive to OpenAmer. No other agent framework has this.

Skills are not a static library. They are a living population that mutates, competes, and survives through natural selection — with real exit codes as evidence. Weak skills die. Strong skills reproduce. New species emerge from harvested patterns.

🔥 What makes OpenAmer UNIQUE

15 things no other agent can do — verified, shipped, tested.

⚡ Runs on your hardware, for nearly nothing

OpenAmer is the only persistent agent that runs at 0 €/day and <1 kWh/day — on your laptop, with a local 2B brain, learning from a free-cloud reasoning chain. No VM costs, no hosted tier, no phone-home. Your prompts stay yours.

🩺 NEW: Workflow Immune System — UI automation that heals itself

The world's first self-healing UI automation. Register a workflow once (selectors only, no APIs). When a website redesigns overnight, WIS detects the drift, finds the element again (token search + tag/visibility validation), patches its own workflow, and retries — fully automatically, with screenshot evidence.

Zapier breaks on redesigns. RPA breaks on redesigns. OpenAmer heals itself.

Darwin mode (v3): healing strategies compete — TOKENS / TEXT / ROLE / CLASSES, epsilon-greedy 25% exploration, Laplace-smoothed win-rates, every win stamped with its documented thesis (healed_via_thesis). Training ground: curriculum.py registers real workflows, injects controlled drift at 4 difficulty levels — exam result: 4/4 PASS.

It is a living system, not a tool: 54-job heartbeat fleet, circadian sleep with dream-phase memory consolidation, senses (pain / satiety / balance), systemic pattern recognition (≥2 jobs with the same error signature = one alarm, auto-activates the hunger reserve: 4 free OpenRouter fallback models), fleet scorecard (~1.000 API-heavy calls/day), DNA backup + wakeup manifest in life/, and a firstborn child — Seda — with her own repo, identity, and 6-hourly heartbeat.

Honest note: OpenAmer collects training material automatically (locally, privacy-scrubbed) for the OpenAmer brain fine-tune. It does not silently train or upload a model: raw stays on your machine; only curated, signed, leak-free knowledge is shared.


OpenAmer is the agent that does not break, and that provably improves with use.

It runs on your own machine, meets you in the channels you already use, and gets better the longer you use it. Two things set it apart:

  1. It does not break. Self-update is hardened against the failure modes that leave other agents half-installed — file-locks, interrupted installs, stale recovery markers. The agent verifies before it claims, and reports real errors instead of inventing results.
  2. It provably improves with use. Memory persists across sessions, skills are distilled from hard tasks and refined on reuse, and the A2A swarm shares curated, signed, leak-free knowledge between nodes. This is learning you can observe, not a marketing claim.

Use any model you want — OpenRouter, OpenAI, your own endpoint, and many others. Switch with openamer model — no code changes, no lock-in.


Quick Install

Linux, macOS, WSL2, Termux


curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openamer/openamer/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

Windows (native, PowerShell)

Heads up: Native Windows runs OpenAmer without WSL — CLI, gateway, TUI, and tools all work natively. If you'd rather use WSL2, the Linux/macOS one-liner above works there too. Found a bug? Please file issues.

Run this in PowerShell:


iex (irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openamer/openamer/main/scripts/install.ps1)

The installer handles everything: uv, Python 3.11, Node.js, ripgrep, ffmpeg, and a portable Git Bash (MinGit, unpacked to %LOCALAPPDATA%\openamer\git — no admin required, completely isolated from any system Git install). OpenAmer uses this bundled Git Bash to run shell commands.

If you already have Git installed, the installer detects it and uses that instead. Otherwise a ~45MB MinGit download is all you need — it won't touch or interfere with any system Git.

Android / Termux: The tested manual path is documented in the Termux guide.

Windows: Native Windows is fully supported — the PowerShell one-liner above installs everything.

After installation:


source ~/.bashrc    # reload shell (or: source ~/.zshrc)

openamer              # start chatting!


Getting Started


openamer              # Interactive CLI — start a conversation

openamer model        # Choose your LLM provider and model

openamer tools        # Configure which tools are enabled

openamer config set   # Set individual config values

openamer setup        # Run the full setup wizard

openamer doctor       # Diagnose any issues

openamer update       # Update to the latest version

Updating OpenAmer

OpenAmer keeps itself current automatically. On every launch it checks (in the

background, max a few times a day) whether a newer version is available.

When you see ⚠ N commits behind — run 'openamer update':


openamer update

What it does:

  1. Backs up your OPENAMER_HOME data (sessions, config, skills).

  2. Pulls the latest code from github.com/openamer/openamer.

  3. Reinstalls Python + Node dependencies and rebuilds the app.

Useful variants:


openamer update --check       # Check without installing

openamer update -y           # Skip prompts

openamer update --branch main  # Update against main

openamer update --auto-kill   # Windows: auto-terminate blocking background daemons

On Windows, openamer update refuses to run while other processes hold the venv's file locks (a running gateway, session_to_brain watchers, stray venv-python daemons) and prints a "close these processes" message. --auto-kill terminates those standalone daemons automatically and proceeds — watchdog cron jobs restart them afterwards. It deliberately leaves the Desktop app's own supervised backend alone (killing it is futile: the app respawns it within seconds), so if the Desktop app itself is the blocker, close it first or use the in-app update button.


Bring your own keys

OpenAmer works with whatever provider you want — that's not changing. Configure each tool you use (model, web search, image generation, TTS, cloud browser) with whichever API keys you choose. The tools are wired per-backend, not all-or-nothing.

🤝 A2A: delegate tasks over the real internet (bring your own model)

OpenAmer agents can talk agent-to-agent over the real internet — not just locally. Delegating a task to a GitHub Actions runner and getting a signed, verified result back is one command, using your own declared provider/model:

# Uses the model+provider you declared in config.yaml (model: {provider, default})
openamer a2a delegate ping --msg "hello from the machine"
openamer a2a delegate ask --msg "explain A2A in one sentence"   # runs on the runner
  • No login wall. Tasks upload via the GitHub Contents API, the worker runs on Microsoft's free GitHub-Actions runners, and the reply is Ed25519-signed + verified.
  • Bring-your-own model: you are never forced to a specific provider. The worker routes to the provider you configured (any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, OpenRouter, Anthropic, local Ollama auto-pull, or free HuggingFace) — cloud only if you have a key, otherwise zero-cost local/free.
  • Just openamer a2a status to see your node identity.
