What it is

AgentGPT is an open-source autonomous AI agent platform built by Reworkd. Users give the agent a name and a goal; it then breaks that goal into tasks, executes them in sequence, reviews the results, and continues until the goal is reached or the run limit is hit.

The cloud version at agentgpt.reworkd.ai requires no install. Self-hosting runs the same stack locally via Docker.

The company has since pivoted to a broader web-scraping-at-scale product (Reworkd), but AgentGPT remains the original open-source agent project.

Safety and ToS caveats

• The platform is marked Beta. Autonomous agent runs can trigger unexpected external actions (web searches, form submissions).
• A valid OpenAI API key is required for self-hosted runs. All OpenAI usage costs apply to the key holder.
• The GitHub repo was archived on 2026-01-28 and is now read-only. No new upstream patches will be released.
• GPL-3.0 license means derivative works must also be open-source.
• Reworkd's hosted version may enforce rate limits and content policies. Review Reworkd's terms before commercial use.

No downloadable template / boilerplate

AgentGPT does not ship a separate starter template or boilerplate repo. The main repo IS the starter. Clone it and run the setup script.
