OpenWork Cloud

Bring OpenWork to your team.

Share skills, connections, policies, and workflows while keeping access under your control.

OpenWork Cloud is optional. The local desktop app stays free, requires no Cloud sign-in, and supports your own providers, skills, plugins, and custom MCP servers. Use Cloud when an organization needs to assign and manage those resources for a team.
OpenWork Cloud is available at app.openworklabs.com. It is for teams that want shared identity, shared skills and plugins, managed connections and models, desktop policies, or hosted workspaces. First, create or join an organization and connect the desktop app to it.
OpenWork Cloud org settings with organization identity, allowed email domains, and allowed desktop versions
  1. Open app.openworklabs.com in your browser.
  2. Follow the setup steps to name your organization and choose a starting point.
  3. Finish checkout if OpenWork Cloud asks for billing.
  4. Continue to the desktop sign-in steps below.
Once you’re there, you can configure the settings for the organization.

Configure org settings

Only the organization owner can change these settings.
  1. In the cloud app, open Settings › General (the Org settings page).
  2. Set the name for your organization.
  3. Optional: enable Restrict allowed email domains and add the approved domains.
  4. Optional: under Allowed Desktop Versions, choose which desktop app versions can sign in to the organization.
These settings apply across the organization. You can also create teams, share plugins and skills, configure Connectors and shared models, and deploy hosted workspaces. Next, you want to make sure you can sign in the desktop app.

Sign in from the desktop app

  1. Open Settings › Account.
  2. Click Sign in.
  3. Finish sign-in in your browser.
  4. If the browser does not return to OpenWork automatically, click Paste sign-in code, paste the openwork://den-auth?... link or one-time code from OpenWork Cloud, then click Finish sign-in.

Cloud URL used by the desktop app

The desktop app uses a single Cloud URL: the Den web baseUrl. The hosted default is https://app.openworklabs.com. All Cloud API and MCP traffic is derived from that one URL through the web app proxy:
  • Cloud API requests go to <baseUrl>/api/den/v1/....
  • OpenWork Cloud MCP requests go to <baseUrl>/api/den/mcp/....
The desktop app does not store or read a separate API URL. On startup it reads the Cloud URL from desktop-bootstrap.json; if that file is missing, it falls back to https://app.openworklabs.com. When you change the Cloud URL in Settings › Account, OpenWork writes the new baseUrl back to the bootstrap file so the next launch uses the same source of truth.

Choose your organization

After sign-in, pick your organization in Settings › Account. Plugins and skills shared with you appear in Settings › Library, under From OpenWork.
