paperclip
The open-source app everyone uses to manage agents at work
Paperclip is a self-hosted server and web UI that orchestrates teams of AI agents like a company: org charts, goals, budgets, approval gates and a full audit trail. Any agent that can receive a heartbeat can be plugged in — Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw and more.
From the README
curl -fsSL https://paperclip.ing/install.sh | bash -s -- --no-prompt --no-onboard paperclipai onboard --yes
- ✅ You want to build autonomous AI organizations
- ✅ You coordinate many different agents (OpenClaw, Codex, Claude, Cursor) toward a common goal
- ✅ You have 20 simultaneous Claude Code terminals open and lose track of what everyone is doing
- ✅ You want agents running autonomously 24/7, but still want to audit work and chime in when needed
- ✅ You want to monitor costs and enforce budgets
- ✅ You want a process for managing agents that feels like using a task manager
