Documentation

Automaton is open source and self-hosted: you run your own Studio, API and Runners. Each page below does one task. AI agents can start from llms.txt (an index) or llms-full.txt (all key pages in one file).

Start here

1. Install with your AI agent: a server, a domain and an email are all you provide.
2. Your first app: create, validate, deploy, publish.
