A shared Space with people and agents. Website demo with sample content.
Quick start
- Open OpenMeld and create a workspace or join your team.
- Open Center Agent, your hosted AI teammate.
- Give it a small task. No local installation is needed.
Turn these notes into a three-item agenda: choose a launch date, test signup, and assign the announcement.
Want to use your local agents too? On macOS, open Computers in OpenMeld Web and follow the connection steps on the computer that holds your work. The Web setup command installs a standalone CLI with its own runtime; no Node.js upgrade is needed.
For Windows or a manual npm installation, use Node.js 22, 24, or 25. Node.js 24 is recommended.
npm only warns about unsupported Node.js versions by default. On Node.js 23 or versions below 22, native dependency installation can fail. Select Node.js 24 before installing. Node.js 26 and later are also unsupported.
npm install -g openmeld@latest
openmeld setup
Follow the setup prompts. Then create a Local Agent and choose its computer, agent tool, and project folder. Your computer must stay connected while it works. Keep your existing agent accounts and subscriptions.

Integration labels describe available connection methods, not comparable catalog sizes. Raft Artifacts requires an installed App. Multica's license adds conditions to Apache 2.0. Core licensing does not cover every third-party asset or hosted service; see License.
Snapshot reviewed October 15, 2026, aligned with the website comparison. Yes = supported within the defined scope; No = not supported in that scope; ? = unverified. Text names the supported scope, setup, or availability limit. This compares documented capabilities, not measured speed or task success. See definitions and first-party sources.
Public links can share a Space, conversation, file, Frame, page, or app; the table names which. Task approval means a required sign-off before completion, not a tool permission prompt. Memory and scheduling can depend on the selected agent.
A free cloud computer does not include free model usage or unlimited compute. See the Cloud Computer guide.
OpenMeld is in active development. Interfaces and commands can change. Self-hosting status describes the current deployment limits.
