## What it is
Open Cowork is an open-source AI agent desktop application for Windows and macOS that wraps Claude Code and other models (OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek) in a friendly GUI with one-click installers. It offers VM-level sandbox isolation, a Skills system for generating office documents, MCP integration with desktop apps, GUI automation via computer use, and remote control through Feishu and Slack.

## Use cases
- run an AI agent on my desktop without coding
- generate pptx docx xlsx files with AI
- connect AI to my browser and Notion via MCP
- control my computer with an AI agent
- remotely command an AI agent from Slack or Feishu
- sandbox AI file operations safely
- use Claude Code with a graphical interface
- switch between multiple AI models in one app

## When to choose
- you want a no-code, one-click AI agent desktop app on Windows or macOS
- you need sandboxed AI execution with VM isolation
- you want document generation skills plus MCP tool integrations out of the box
- you need remote agent control via Feishu or Slack

## When to avoid
- you need a Linux desktop app
- you only want a headless CLI agent or SDK to embed in your own code
- you require guaranteed safety for unrestricted file operations despite sandboxing
- you need mobile or web-based agent access
