What is Wayland

Wayland is the command center for every AI CLI on your machine. It is a full agent in its own right, and it also drives the CLIs you already use, all from one app, all on your own keys. It perceives, reasons, acts, and evolves locally.

Install it, paste one key, and get real work done while one agent plans, builds, and ships across every AI tool you already pay for. Drive Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Qwen, Goose and more from a single command center. Switch models mid-task. Keep your files, your shell, and your keys local.

You cowork with the system to get whole jobs done: write the book, run the multi-week project, take an idea all the way to shipped. You set the goal and stay in control while it handles the grunt work, calls in specialists, and keeps the thread across every session.

Free and open source, app and engine both. No subscription, no cloud round-trip, no lock-in.

Cowork: plan, build, and ship anything from one place

AI finally gets useful when it stops answering one question at a time and starts doing the whole job. That is Cowork: you and the system work the problem together, from the first rough idea to the shipped result. Write the book. Run the multi-week project. Plan, build, and ship the thing you actually came to do.

It is collaborative and autonomous at the same time. You set the goal and stay in control. Wayland keeps state across the whole arc of the work: your files, the running plan, and a memory that does not reset between sessions. When a job is bigger than one chat, it scales up on its own:

• One assistant, real file access. Cowork operates directly on your files with the built-in tools (Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Grep, Glob), processes real documents, and plans multi-step work. Start in a read-only Plan mode to see the approach before anything is touched.
• A self-assembling team when the job is big. Hand the goal to a team. A manager you talk to in plain language assembles the right specialists and they work the task together against one shared blackboard until it is done. Keep a Standing Company on call, or spin up an ad-hoc team for a single push.
• Pre-trained specialists on tap. Pull in a domain expert for the part that needs one, then drop back to driving the whole thing yourself.
• It keeps going on a schedule. Put the recurring parts on cron and they run while you are away.

You are not prompting a chatbot. You are coworking with a system that remembers the project, owns the grunt work, and checks in when it matters.

Why Wayland

One team, not isolated CLIs. Your CLIs are brilliant strangers who never met. Each one forgets everything between sessions and lives in its own silo. Wayland is the command center that makes them one team: shared memory across every agent, one workflow from idea to ship, multi-AI cross-audit, and opt-in Flux Router routing that sends each task to the model that fits it.
