Claude, Copilot, Gemini, Codex, Cursor, Hermes & OpenClaw — all running on your hardware.

Pick the agent, write the task, hit Run. Your keys never leave your machine.

How it works

Remote by design

CTRL NODE never stores your code or data. The Bridge runs on your machine and opens one outbound WebSocket to the platform — like a reverse tunnel, but simpler. Everything else stays local.

In your browser

Write a task

Create a task, write instructions, pick a provider and the agent on your machine that should run it. Hit Run.

Task editor Provider picker Workflow designer

Outbound WebSocket

Bridge receives it

The Bridge on your machine has an outbound connection open. The task arrives instantly — no inbound ports, no VPN, works behind NAT and firewalls.

No open ports No VPN Works anywhere

On your machine

Agent runs. Output streams.

The Bridge spawns the AI provider locally. Terminal output and task status stream back to your browser in real time. Your code never leaves your machine.

Live output Data stays local Zero storage

Providers

Seven AI providers. One control plane.

Pick the provider your task needs. Mix and match across workflows — assign a different agent to each step. The Bridge routes each task to the right agent automatically — even when multiple providers are running in parallel.

Claude SDK

API key

Anthropic's Claude via official SDK. Pass a task, get a result — no browser needed.

Setup guide

GitHub Copilot

PAT token

Setup guide

Google Gemini

API key / CLI login

Google Gemini CLI via ACP. Supports API key or interactive browser login.

Setup guide

OpenAI Codex CLI

API key

Setup guide

Hermes

ACP protocol

Nous Research Hermes agent with persistent memory and auto-generated skills. Runs locally via ACP protocol.

Setup guide

OpenClaw

Gateway token

The original OpenClaw orchestration engine. Full session control, gateway-based.

Setup guide

All providers load automatically — just set the API keys you need.

Routines

Set it once, run it on schedule

Create a routine in seconds — write the instructions, pick an agent, choose a schedule — and CtrlNode fires it automatically. Every run is tracked with a full history, live output, and the files your agent produced.

Scheduler fires, agent executes, files land in workspace

When a routine's time comes, the Bridge sends the instructions to your agent and streams the output live. The result — reports, summaries, alerts — appears directly in the run history.

Multiagent Workflows

n8n-style visual workflows

Design automations on an infinite canvas: drop agent nodes, wire inputs and outputs, and chain tasks across any provider so the result of one step becomes the context of the next. When the graph is ready, hit Deploy Workflow and watch every stage execute live.

Assign an agent to each node

Every node in the workflow can have its own agent assignment — the same agent for all steps, or a different one per node. The Bridge orchestrates them in sequence or in parallel.

Kanban

Ship Kanban tasks like a product team

Not every job needs a DAG. Write a task, pick an agent and provider, and drop it on the board. CTRL NODE automatically promotes it through BACKLOG → INBOX → ACTIVE → DONE as the Bridge dispatches it to your agents and they report back in real time.

Collaboration

Team management

See every agent at a glance: who is online, who is running a task and who has failed. Invite operators, assign roles and share workflows or boards across your organisation — permissions live inside your CTRL NODE instance, no third-party identity provider required.

Context

Memory management

Supervise long-term agent memory. Review, edit and inject context locally so your agents stay sharp without breaking the zero-storage principle: sensitive data stays on your side of the Bridge, never in the cloud.

Sure! I'll create a simple, modern landing page for the "iPhone Pro" with HTML and CSS bundled into a single file.

The output file will be index.html inside the task directory.

Here is the HTML/CSS content:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

100% OPEN SOURCE

Install the Bridge. Connect any provider.

The CTRL NODE Bridge is a lightweight, self-hosted binary that connects your local machine to the control plane. All providers load automatically — just set your API keys and your agents are online in seconds. Your prompts, code and API keys never leave your machine. The full source is published on GitHub.

Windows

PS> iwr https://github.com/ctrlnode-ai/ctrlnode/releases/latest/download/install.ps1 | iex

Linux / macOS

$ curl -fsSL https://github.com/ctrlnode-ai/ctrlnode/releases/latest/download/install.sh | bash

$ PAIRING_TOKEN=your-token ./ctrlnode

Install the Bridge from GitHub

Windows, macOS and Linux. Bun-based binary, no runtime dependencies.

Built on transparency

We believe infrastructure you run against your own code should be inspectable. That's why CTRL NODE's Bridge is public on GitHub. Audit the source, open issues, send pull requests — or fork it and run your own private gateway.
