Point your agent at openworklabs.com/llms.txt and it can install OpenWork, set it up for a team, or connect OpenWork to itself. This page has the same steps.
Don’t use npx openwork or npm install openwork. The npm package named openwork is a different project.

Just me: install the desktop app

Free, no account needed. These links always point to the latest stable release. Then run your first task.

​
My team: set up OpenWork Cloud

  1. Sign up and name your team. That creates your organization. The first 5 seats are free.
  2. Invite teammates in Members > Add member.
  3. Share models in AI Gateway > AI Providers > Add provider.
  4. Share a skill: Plugin Directory > Create plugin > + Skill, add it to a Collection, and grant it to a team.
  5. Everyone installs the desktop app and clicks Joining a team? Sign in.
Full walkthrough: Team quickstart. For a headless, agent-run setup, follow start.md. It uses the openwork-bootstrap CLI from https://openworklabs.com/install.sh, which needs Node.js 20+ and doesn’t install the desktop app.

​
Inside my agent: connect the MCP Gateway

Server URL: https://api.openworklabs.com/mcp/agent. Sign-in uses OAuth in the browser. You need an OpenWork Cloud account.
Other clients: Connect OpenWork MCP. It’s working when your agent lists the search_capabilities and execute_capability tools.
