About Adminforth
AdminForth is an open source framework for building admin panels and back office tools that coding agents can write and operators can work through agents. Developers declare resources against an existing database with a plain configuration object, and AdminForth generates a full panel as an ordinary Node app in their own repository, with no proprietary format and no data copied elsewhere.
It is aimed at developers who build internal tools with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini or Copilot, and at the admins who then use those tools. Every generated app ships AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, llms.txt and skills files so a coding agent can add a resource, column or plugin without being briefed each session. An MCP server plugin exposes resources and actions as tools for any MCP client, and each call runs as the AdminForth user who issued the secret, so permissions, validation, hooks and the audit log still apply; each agent gets its own revocable secret. It supports Postgres, MySQL, SQLite and MongoDB. Around 30 plugins add OAuth2 and OpenID single sign on, two factor authentication with passkeys, session management, audit logging, S3 uploads, LLM based translation of the panel and external apps, and AI autocomplete for writing content from record context. Custom pages and dashboards use Vue 3 components, and dark mode and branding are built in.
AdminForth is MIT licensed, self hosted and free, and the project states it intends to stay that way. No paid plan is published; AI plugins use the customer's own LLM API key.
A new project starts from one command that scaffolds the app.
