Agent AFK solves the frustration of babysitting AI tasks by running coding agents locally and securely, keeping data on your machine while you focus on higher-level decisions.
Stop Wasting Time on Unattended Coding
Agent AFK automates long-running tasks with daemon workflows and persistent memory, so you review results rather than chase them.
Protect Your Data with Local Execution
With permission boundaries, reversibility gates, isolated worktrees, and by default no data leaves your device, you maintain control and privacy.
Verify Before You Ship
Adversarial verification and self-checking ensure that only verified results change your codebase, with full trace history under ~/.afk/.
Collaborate Securely with Telegram Supervision
Receive notifications and control flows via Telegram while keeping processing on-device.
Supported models include Claude, Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, and BYO-model providers, with BYO-machine support for flexible pipelines.

I set this up to run feature work overnight and let subagents chase hypotheses in parallel. The hands-off automation actually saved me hours, and the local traces give me a solid audit trail when I wake up. The initial setup is a bit verbose, and the logs can be noisy, but I can tune filters and still sleep.

What I liked
What could be better
I manage a small feature pipeline and needed a way to supervise long tasks from anywhere. The Telegram notifications keep me in the loop without opening dashboards, while local traces give a crisp audit trail for after-action reviews. The combination of parallel subagents helps diagnose bugs faster and lets me gate PRs with confidence. The initial setup is non-trivial, but once wired, it feels like an extra pair of eyes on the project.
