Introduction
dashsquad lets you run a team of AI agents that do work for you.
Your AI team, always on
dashsquad lets you run a team of AI agents on your computer. Each agent is a squad member. The full team is your squad.
You tell each squad member what to do. It uses its tools, makes decisions and continues until it completes the job. You can check the results from your desktop, your browser or your phone.
Give work to your squad
Squad members do tasks, make decisions and continue without your help.
Use many AI providers
Connect Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Moonshot (Kimi) or OpenRouter. Each squad member can use a different model.
Manage from Desktop
Deploy squad members, chat with them and change their settings in the Desktop app.
See your squad at work
The Office in Desktop shows every squad member as a character at a desk, with its state. Click a character to open its chat.
Your files stay on your computer
The HQ runs on your computer. Squad members work in folders on your computer. dashsquad encrypts your API keys.
Reach your squad from anywhere
Chat from Desktop, the web app, the iOS app, the Android app, Telegram or WhatsApp.
Sub-agents
A squad member can start helpers. Each helper does one part of the work, and the squad member collects the answers.
Sub-agents
A squad member can start sub-agents for a large job. Each sub-agent does one part of the work with its own tools. The squad member then puts the answers together into one reply.
Each sub-agent shows as a row in the chat. Open the row to see what the sub-agent does. You can also send it a message or stop it. A sub-agent can also work in the background while you continue. When it finishes, your squad member continues the conversation and tells you the result.
Guide work in progress
You can type while your squad member works. Choose Steer to change the response in progress. Choose Follow Up to keep the next request in a queue.
The queue is the same in Desktop, the web app, the iOS app and the Android app. If you stop a response or a response fails, choose Resume Follow Ups to continue.
For more information, see chat controls.
