https://t.co/VTKa8HxqtG got a face lift! Take a look!
And I’m gonna need some more people willing to record their experience to hone in on the best onboarding. Sign up for the waiting list and reply to the welcome email if you’d like to help with that.
Kody — your assistant’s home

Your AI agent, finallyuseful.
Not another agent. Kody equips the one you already use with secure access to your services and jobs that run while your laptop is closed.
Not sure what you’d use it for?Read what Kody can do— no account needed.
Nothing new to learn
Kody isn’t another assistant to talk to. It plugs into the agent you already use, so the same conversation you’re having today can now reach your real accounts.
Because your agent does the thinking, Kody gets better every time the models do.
- Cursor
- Claude Code
- anything that speaks MCP
What you can ask
### “Catch me up on Slack”
Your agent reads the right channels and hands you the three things that actually need you. Kody supplies the Slack access.
### “Plan my week”
Calendar, email, and open issues in one pass: your agent drafts the schedule and books the focus time. Kody holds the keys to all three.
### “Triage my GitHub issues”
Labels, duplicates, and a morning brief on what changed while you slept. Your agent set it up once; a Kody job runs it every day.
Solve it once. Run it forever.
Ask a typical agent for a weekly report and it re-does every step from scratch, with more chances to go wrong each time. With Kody, your agent writes the code once, tests it, and saves it as a package. Every run after is the same: fast, cheap, predictable.
## Bring your own keys
Kody never asks a company for access on your behalf. You create the connection yourself, with your agent walking you through it: your app, your scopes, revocable anytime. No shared app sits between you and your accounts.
And there’s no fixed list. If the integration doesn’t exist, your agent builds it on the spot and just asks you to sign in.
It already speaks your stack
Community packages cover the tools you live in. Browse what other people built, fork it with your agent, and make it yours.
- Spotify
- Stripe
- Resend
- Kit
- Cal.com
- PayPal
- X
- Bluesky
- Twitch
- Sentry
- Fly.io
- Raycast
- GroupMe
- …and one thermostat
Code runs in a sandbox. Secrets stay server-side and never enter prompts or your agent’s context. Every user is fully isolated.
Kody’ssource is open— read it, fork it, self-host it. Every claim above links to the code that proves it.
## Equip your agent
