Agent-Native
The framework for agent-native apps
Agent-Native is an open-source framework for building robust agents that act inside real apps, not just chat next to them. It gives you primitives for product-grade agentic software: shared actions, SQL-backed state, identity, tools, skills, jobs, observability, and UI surfaces that all work together. Bring your own database, hosting provider, model stack, and app code.
export default defineAction({
schema: z.object({
emailId: z.string(),
body: z.string(),
}),
run: async ({ emailId, body }) => {
await db.insert(replies).values({ emailId, body });
},
});
- Actions: Define work once. Use it from UI, agent, API, MCP, A2A, and CLI.
- Agent runtime: Chat, tools, skills, memory, jobs, observability, and handoffs ship together.
- Backend agnostic: Plug in any Drizzle-supported SQL database and Nitro-compatible host.
Templates
Start with a full featured template. Each one is a complete, 100% free and open-source SaaS app: cloneable, not scaffolded, except you own the code and can customize everything.
|
Clips

Agent-Native Loom + Jam
Record your screen with auto-transcripts and captured browser debug logs, share a link, and let an agent read the transcript, see timestamped frames, and fix the bug.
|
Plans

Visual plan mode for coding agents
Install /visual-plan and /visual-recap so your coding agent can plan before it builds and recap changes after they land. High-level code reviews with diagrams, wireframes, annotations, and review links.
|
Design

Agent-Native design prototyping
Generate interactive HTML prototypes, compare variants, refine controls, and export the result.
|
|
Content

Open-source Obsidian for MDX
Edit local Markdown/MDX files, generate rich interactive custom blocks, and draft, rewrite, or publish with an agent.
|
Slides

Agent-Native Google Slides, Pitch
Generate and edit React-based presentations via prompt or point-and-click.
|
Analytics

Agent-Native Amplitude, Mixpanel
Connect analytics data sources, prompt for real charts, and build reusable dashboards.

Agents and UIs, Fully Connected
The agent and the UI are equal citizens of one system. Every action works both ways: click it or ask for it.

- Everything syncs: One database, one state. Changes from either side show up instantly on the other.
- Real-time multiplayer: Humans and agents edit the same document together, with the agent as a first-class peer.
- Context-aware: The agent knows what you're looking at. Select text, hit Cmd+I, and tell it what to do.
- Agents call agents: Tag another agent from any app and they coordinate over A2A.
- Self-improving: The agent can add features, fix bugs, and refine the UI over time.
Try it with a skill
Don't want to scaffold a whole app yet? Add visual planning and PR recaps to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Pi, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot / VS Code, and similar agents with one command:
npx @agent-native/core@latest skills add visual-plan

You get two slash commands:
/visual-plan: before the agent writes code, it opens a structured, reviewable plan with inline diagrams, UI wireframes, file-by-file implementation maps, and annotations you can comment on and approve.
/visual-recap: after changes land, it turns a PR or git diff into a high-altitude visual recap with a shareable review link instead of a raw diff.
See the Skills Guide for more.
Quick Start
One command to start a new project locally.
npx @agent-native/core@latest create my-app
cd my-app
pnpm install
pnpm dev
create first asks how you want to start:
- Full template(s): clone one or more complete apps into a workspace. Pick Mail + Calendar + Forms and you get all three wired up and sharing auth.
- Chat: a single app with a minimal chat UI and the browser shell already wired, the simplest way to get a UI.
- Headless: a single action-first app with no UI shell. The CLI walks you through calling your first action and agent, and you can add a UI later.
Prefer flags? create my-app --template mail, --headless, or --standalone skip the prompt.
The Best of Both Worlds
| UI | Polished but rigid | None | Mixed quality | Full UI, fork & go |
| AI | Bolted on | Powerful | Shallowly connected | Agent-first, integrated |
| Customization | Can't | Instructions and skills | Full, but high maintenance | Agent modifies the app |
| Ownership | Rented | Somewhat yours | You own the code | You own the code |
