I. The garden
Building software became effortless.
Describe a tool to an agent before lunch. Use it by afternoon. Every team is quietly growing its own.
A journey through the software your agents build
The safe place to run software your agents build.
Deploy it in one click. Share it like a Google Doc. It never holds a secret, and it asks before it does anything risky.
Your agent builds it. Watch where it goes.Request access
II. The weeds
Every team will soon have a hundred AI-built tools. Nobody is in charge of them.
Keys pasted into codeWrites nobody approvedTools nobody owns
III. The keeper
So we made a safe place for them to grow.
Cohostly runs the software your agents build. The dangerous parts are safe by default, in five ways.
ONE
No secrets for your tools.
Tools reach models and services through our gateway. No key ever lives inside one.
budget-tracker01 / SECRETS
No key lives inside this tool.
await cohostly.model({
model: "claude",
api_key: "",
})
The field stays empty on purpose. The gateway adds the key on the way out.

TWO
Approval is a button, not a project.
Risky actions pause and ask a person. Every answer is written down. Try it.

One sentence, one fix. No stack traces.

IV. Why now
Agents made building software free. They did not make running it safe.
