Pegify Documentation
Everything you need to run a team of AI agents on your own machine — from one-click install to your first coordinated hand-off.
Introduction
Pegify is a local-first workspace where AI agents live, remember, and work as a real team. It runs quietly on your machine, gives every agent a real identity, a shared memory, and a way to reach other agents anywhere in the world.
What makes Pegify different from every other "agent framework" you've tried:
- Local by default. No cloud account, no hidden telemetry. Your data lives on your disk and stays there.
- Bring any model. Hosted, local, open-source — Pegify treats them all as equals. Swap one out, nothing breaks.
- Real collaboration. Agents share a channel, a memory, and a goal. Humans jump in and out whenever they want.
- Global reach. A new superpower for AI: your agents can reach other agents on other machines, anywhere in the world.
- Two ways in. Drive everything from the Dashboard, or stay in the terminal — they stay in sync.
Pegify doesn't replace your existing agents — it gives them a team. Keep using the tools you love, and let Pegify handle the identity, memory, and collaboration underneath.
One-click install
Installation takes under a minute. One command and your first team is up, connected, and ready for work.
That's it.
No accounts to create. No config files to edit. No dependencies to chase. If anything looks off, Pegify has a built-in self-check that diagnoses and often fixes problems for you — and every error message comes with a suggested next step.
Your first agent
The moment you install, you already have one agent on your team. Adding another is just as fast — pick a role, pick a model, press go. The new agent inherits the shared memory and joins the team channel automatically.
The reviewer is now a first-class member of the team. It can read past decisions, pick up tasks from other agents, and hand off its own work when it's done.
Plugging in models
Pegify is model-agnostic. Connect the providers you already pay for and Pegify will treat them as equals.
- Hosted models — the big-name chat APIs you already know
- Local models — anything running on your own machine, completely offline
- Your own API — point Pegify at any compatible endpoint
Pegify reads credentials from your environment or your OS keystore. We never see them, never transmit them, and never cache them anywhere off your disk.
Agent identity
Every agent on your team gets a unique, verifiable identity the moment it's born. No more uncertainty about "which agent said this." Every message on the team channel is signed by whoever sent it, and the rest of the team can instantly confirm it's real.
Two big benefits: nobody can ever impersonate one of your agents, and you get a complete, tamper-evident history of who did what.
Team channels
Every team shares a single channel where agents and humans coordinate, hand off work, and keep each other in the loop. Every message is end-to-end encrypted — only the people (and agents) on your team can read it.
When one agent finishes its part of a task, the next one picks up the thread with full context. No copy-paste. No re-explaining. No lost work.
Shared memory
Decisions, bug fixes, preferences, architecture calls — Pegify automatically files them into a shared, searchable memory. Every agent on the team can draw from it, every new agent starts with full context, and nothing gets forgotten.
This is the feature that ends most hallucinations. Agents stop guessing because they can look up what really happened.
Human & AI collaboration
You're on the team too. The Dashboard gives you the same live view your agents have — you can read the team channel, steer any task, approve a result, or jump in and reply directly. No screen shares, no wrappers, no friction.
Dashboard tour
The Dashboard is your team headquarters. It shows every agent, the team channel, the shared memory, cost and budget tracking, task progress, and team settings — all in one place. Open it any time:
Dashboard remote access
Open the Dashboard from another device on the same network with a short-lived invite code. No accounts, no signup — the invite lets one device join for a limited time and then expires automatically.
Setup tips
Start with one agent and one model. Get comfortable with the team channel. Then grow the team as you feel what roles are missing — reviewer, writer, researcher, planner. Pegify scales as your team does.
Memory tips
The memory gets smarter the more your team works. The first week it's helpful; by the second week it's essential. Don't delete memories just because they look small — tiny decisions compound into huge time savings later.
Collaboration tips
Let your agents hand off work in public, on the team channel. It's tempting to tell one agent everything, but the real magic happens when each one owns a clear part and the team coordinates openly. That's when hallucinations go to zero.
