Overview
Your agent runs on hardware you own, independent of your everyday computer, and stays active as long as it is powered. Its data, memory, and browser state live locally under your control, with optional opt-in cloud backups and recovery from failed updates.
MangoTart Agent OS is not a raw open-source image — it is a preconfigured operating layer designed to be always-on, locally owned, observable, backed up, and recoverable. It supports agent-centric workflows such as browser tasks, file processing, monitoring, scheduled and long-running work, and safe experimentation.
Compared with the alternatives, it avoids sharing resources with your daily laptop, datacenter IPs that come with a VPS, the setup burden of DIY builds, and the lack of control of SaaS agents. There is no MangoTart subscription — bring your ChatGPT subscription via Codex OAuth or any Hermes-supported model provider.
