Perago runs a real agent — shell, files, web, memory, schedules — on a local model. No subscription. No account. Nothing leaves your machine unless you say so.
Perago (Latin): to carry through to the end.
macOS · Linux · Windows
Perago drives an observe–act tool loop until the job is done, with hard budgets so it never runs away.
Shell, file read/write/edit, web search & fetch, git, grep, code execution, speech in/out, image understanding — all local.
When a task turns out to be a reusable playbook, Perago asks before saving it. Nothing becomes a skill until you approve it in the Toolkit.
Cross-session memory with full-text search, background jobs, and reminders that land straight in your calendar (Apple Calendar on macOS).
An approval inbox gates high-risk actions — shell commands, file writes, commits — and a filesystem policy asks before leaving the workspace.
Need more horsepower? Point a turn at Groq, OpenAI, OpenRouter, Together, Fireworks, or DeepSeek with your own key — spend tracking included.
Hard iteration caps per turn, mutating tools never auto-retry, shell timeouts enforced by the harness — structure, not vibes.
One desktop app — macOS, Linux, or Windows — bundles the UI and the agent harness. Or run from source with cargo.
Perago installs the llama.cpp build for your platform and downloads Gemma 4 E4B (quantized, GPU-accelerated where available) once. After that, it works offline.
Give it goals, not prompts. It plans, uses tools, asks when it needs permission, and tells you when it's done.
A preset catalog of Model Context Protocol servers — enable what you use, ignore the rest.
Perago gives a language model real capabilities, so it treats safety as structure: risky tools can be routed to an approval inbox, filesystem access outside the workspace requires an explicit grant, secrets stay in gitignored local files, and everything it does is inspectable — it's your machine and your source code.
It is a personal tool, not a sandbox. Read the security notes in the repo before pointing it at anything you care about.
Free forever under MIT. Star it, fork it, make it yours.
