Security Review

Scans a codebase and its dependencies with semgrep plus model reasoning, then re-scans and diff-reviews proposed fixes before you approve.

Work From Slack

Opens a desktop session when you mention @OpenWorker in a Slack channel and posts the finished answer back as a thread reply.

Scheduled Automations

Runs recurring work such as a morning brief, weekly report or channel watch on a schedule, with full transcripts kept in the app.

Sandboxed Commands

Runs each agent's shell and file tools in an NVIDIA OpenShell Linux container, or the built-in macOS sandbox, with an allow-listed network.
