OSS Spotlight: Cagent - AI Team on Your Machine
cagent, from Docker, runs multiple AI agents on your machine and even creates new agents for you.
It operates outside the sandbox, with real access to network socket and things other AI coding tools can't access, so it can automate things in a way cloud-based assistants can’t.
Think of it as an AI team living on your laptop, doing work on your behalf.
So in this episode, I’ll tell you what I discovered, and how I felt while playing around with it.
