Armorer Labs: run any agent securely # Armorer ### Local control plane for AI agents Run native Armorer Flue agents with local sandboxes, guided setup, credential handling, guardrails, approvals, jobs, logs, and runtime health in one place. **Run any agent. Securely. Local-first by default.** > **Experimental release candidate:** Armorer is under active development. The > current release train is intended for early testers who are comfortable with > local agent runtimes, Docker/Colima, and rapidly evolving setup flows. [Website](https://armorerlabs.com) · [Install](https://armorerlabs.com/install) · [Docs for humans](HUMANS.md) · [Issues](https://github.com/ArmorerLabs/Armorer/issues) Star [ArmorerLabs/Armorer](https://github.com/ArmorerLabs/Armorer) if you want safer local agent runtimes to exist.
--- ## One Command ```bash curl -fsSL https://armorerlabs.com/install | sh ``` Then open the local UI and install supported agents through Armorer. The default installer uses the native `armorer` launcher and a pinned local appliance image. Users do not need Python, Node.js, pnpm, Rust, or a source checkout. ```bash armorer status armorer doctor armorer logs --follow ``` ## Develop ```bash curl -fsSL https://armorerlabs.com/install | sh -s -- --dev ``` Or run the workspace manually: ```bash corepack enable pnpm install --frozen-lockfile pnpm build pnpm test pnpm typecheck pnpm --filter armorer-ui-selfhost build ``` Source/development runs also need Rust/Cargo for the native Armorer gateway. `pnpm dev`, `pnpm start`, and `pnpm build` run a gateway preflight that uses the packaged gateway when available or builds `crates/armorer-gateway` locally. Proprietary extensions are distributed as authenticated appliance images, not source inside this repository. See [Private distributions](docs/private-distributions.md). Start the self-hosted UI from source: ```bash pnpm dev -- --hostname 0.0.0.0 --port 3099 ``` Then open `http://127.0.0.1:3099`. Use the CLI directly from the workspace: ```bash pnpm armorer -- list pnpm armorer -- core status pnpm armorer -- install armorer-agent --alias signal-native --yes --skip-scan pnpm armorer -- jobs list ``` Armorer also supports native Armorer-managed agents and Vault-backed connected apps from the same CLI: ```bash pnpm armorer -- install armorer-agent --alias signal-native --yes --skip-scan pnpm armorer -- connections list pnpm armorer -- linear customer-sync list ``` For docker build GPG signature failures or proxy issues during agent installation, see the [Troubleshooting guide](docs/installation.md#troubleshooting). ## Use Your Agent ```text Set up Armorer from https://github.com/ArmorerLabs/Armorer on this machine. Follow AGENTS.md and the repository instructions. Install Armorer, verify Docker, start the local UI, then help me create and configure an Armorer Flue agent. Do not report success until the Armorer CLI works, the UI is reachable, and runtime health checks pass. ``` ## Why Armorer | Running agents directly | Running agents through Armorer Labs | | --- | --- | | Each agent has its own setup path | One local control plane | | Credentials are easy to scatter | Guided credential handling | | Risky actions are hard to review | Human approvals and guardrails | | Logs live wherever the agent puts them | Jobs, runtime status, and audit trails | | Local networking gets messy | Local-first with optional private remote access | ## What Exists Today - Local agent runtime and UI. - Docker sandbox orchestration for installed agents. - Guided setup for providers, models, credentials, channels, and skills. - Native Armorer Flue agents as the supported agent runtime. - Armorer Agent chat runs with durable Flue-backed run state and live workstream visibility. - Vault-backed connected apps with explicit per-agent grants. - Linear CRM/c ```` --- **Machine-readable endpoints** - JSON: [`/api/graphcanon/tools/armorerlabs-armorer`](/api/graphcanon/tools/armorerlabs-armorer) - LLM index: [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) - Full corpus: [/llms-full.txt](/llms-full.txt) _GraphCanon - The knowledge graph for AI development. https://www.graphcanon.com/_
