Brigade is a self-hosted, MIT-licensed multi-agent runtime where a crew of AI agents on an org chart delegate work, switch models mid-task, and share a long-term memory store (Tideline). It ships as a single Node.js binary that runs a long-lived gateway holding all state, with thin clients (TUI, messaging channels like WhatsApp, MCP memory server) attaching over WebSocket.

Use cases

  • run a crew of autonomous AI agents on my own machine
  • self-hosted multi-agent orchestration with shared memory
  • personal AI assistant that runs locally without an account
  • connect AI agents to WhatsApp and other messaging channels
  • schedule recurring agent tasks with cron
  • expose my local agent gateway securely to the internet
  • benchmark my agent crew against real traffic

When to choose

  • you want a single-operator, self-hosted agent crew with persistent shared memory and no SaaS middleman
  • you want one binary that runs as a gateway with thin reconnectable clients
  • you want to reuse existing Claude, ChatGPT, or Copilot logins instead of juggling API keys
  • you need messaging-channel integrations, cron scheduling, and MCP support out of the box

When to avoid

  • you need a multi-user, team-facing agent platform with per-user auth
  • you want a managed cloud service with zero local setup
  • you need a framework library to embed agents in your own application rather than a standalone application
  • you require formal enterprise compliance certifications or SLAs
