Atomic Agent

Atomic Agent is an open source, local first AI operator that runs on the user's own machine and drives real tools: the browser, the file system, the shell and git. It runs a local model through llama.cpp, so there is no cloud account, no API key and no token bill, and every session is stored on the user's own disk. It installs with a single shell command on macOS and Linux, with a separate installer for Windows. It suits developers and power users who want an autonomous assistant that keeps data private. Tasks arrive in plain language from a terminal interface or from Telegram. The local model returns a list of next actions in one pass, constrained by a grammar so every tool call is structurally valid, and the agent runs them in parallel, pausing for approval on risky steps. A stable prompt prefix lets each step reuse the model's cached computation, which keeps long loops fast on consumer hardware. The terminal interface includes session switching, a task queue, scheduled jobs and an operator dashboard for running, observing and managing work, and the documentation covers the full set of slash commands. The software is free and open source, and the site lists no paid plans; the only cost is the hardware that runs the model. The same team publishes Atomic Chat, a desktop and mobile chat app for local models that installs from the same command, so the two are closely related projects.
