Durable runtime

Long-horizon agents, managed for you.

Every agent runs as a managed worker with durable state, full timeline, snapshots, backups, and restore handled by Asteroids.

Infinitely long continuous history

Keep instructions, files, decisions, and conversation history across long-running work.

Managed recovery

Snapshots and backups let the agent restore after faults without losing the thread.

Secure sandbox

Isolated environments boot in seconds with only the tools you attach.

Tools you can customize

Start with built-in tools, then add prompts, APIs, files, and custom workflows.

Scale and park

Spin up more agents in seconds. Park idle agents for free until work returns.

Self-evolving (coming soon)

Your agent distills what it learns into an ever-sharper version of itself.

CLI included

Your whole fleet, one command away.

Create and manage agents straight from the terminal. Everything you can do in the UI is scriptable with the CLI.
