## What it is
Craft Agents is an open-source, agent-native desktop application for working with AI agents in a document-centric, GUI-based workflow instead of a CLI. It uses the Claude Agent SDK and Pi SDK, and lets agents self-configure connections to APIs, MCP servers, and databases through natural-language prompts.

## Use cases
- connect ai agents to slack, gmail, or linear without writing config files
- run local stdio mcp servers as subprocesses from a gui
- share agent sessions with teammates
- hook agents up to a postgres database behind a jumpbox
- replace cli coding agents with a document-centric agent workspace
- paste an openapi spec and have the agent wire up the integration

## When to choose
- you want a polished gui alternative to cli-based agent tools
- you need agents to connect to arbitrary apis and mcp servers with minimal setup
- you prefer document-centric multitasking over code-editor workflows
- you want a highly customizable, open-source agent app

## When to avoid
- you need a lightweight cli agent for scripting and automation
- you require deep ide integration for coding tasks
- you depend on a mature ecosystem of plugins and long-term support
