What it does

Orkas is an MIT-licensed desktop app for macOS and Windows. A Commander agent turns a goal and your files into to-dos and coordinates built-in specialist agents (for example DeepResearcher, PptMaker, ContentWriter, OfficeWorker) plus Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, OpenClaw and Hermes-Agent, to produce reports, slide decks and other documents. Projects keep goals, memory and files between chats, and scheduled automations repeat routine work hourly, daily, weekly or monthly. Chats and files stay on your device by default; Orkas's built-in models run through its managed service, or you can use your own provider keys.
