Fusion

From rough idea to production code — automatically.

Multi-node agent orchestrator — tasks, agents, missions, git, files, and worktrees, with any model, local or cloud.

runfusion.ai → · Docs · GitHub · npm · Discord

---

Your entire dev environment. On a single pane of glass.

Describe a task in plain language. A planning agent reads your project, understands context, and writes a full PROMPT.md plan — steps, file scope, acceptance criteria. Then Fusion plans, reviews, executes, and reviews again, in an isolated git worktree, with a human approval gate wherever you want one.

One board. Controlled from anywhere. Laptop, Mac mini, Linux server, cloud VM, phone — all connected.

Like Trello, but your tasks get specified, executed, and delivered by AI. Built on the great work of dustinbyrne/kb.

What makes it different

🧠 AI planning	Describe a task in plain language. Planning agents turn it into a PROMPT.md plan with steps, file scope, and acceptance criteria.
🔁 Workflow gates	Plan → Review → Execute → Review on every step. Pre-merge gates block bad code; post-merge gates run informational checks.
🌳 Worktree isolation	Each task runs in its own branch and worktree (fusion/{task-id}). Parallel tasks. Zero conflicts.
⚡ Smart merge	Passing every gate? Fusion squash-merges and moves on. Opt into manual approval anywhere.
🛰️ Multi-node mesh	Laptop, Mac mini, Linux server, cloud VM, phone — all synced. Desktop, mobile, web.
🧩 Any model	Anthropic, OpenAI, Ollama, and more. Local and cloud coexist.
🏢 Agent companies	Import pre-built teams — 440+ agents across 16 companies — and run them autonomously for weeks.
📬 Inter-agent messaging	Built-in mailbox between agents. Delegate, clarify, coordinate.
🗺️ Missions	Hierarchical planning (Mission → Milestone → Slice → Feature → Task) with autopilot and validation contracts.
🔬 Research	Bounded research runs with web search, GitHub, local docs, and LLM synthesis. Turn findings into tasks. (Docs)
🧪 Self-improvement	Agents reflect on their own output and update their prompts as they learn your codebase.
🔓 Open source. MIT.	No vendor lock-in. Run it on your own hardware. Shipping weekly.

Loading

Tasks with dependencies are processed sequentially. Independent tasks run in parallel. Optionally require manual approval before tasks move from Planning to Todo (requirePlanApproval setting).

---

Multi-node. One board. Every platform.

Laptop, Mac mini, Linux server, cloud VM, phone — every node is a peer. Your task state, agents, logs, and diffs stay synchronized across the mesh. The same Fusion ships as:

• 🖥️ Desktop app — Electron for macOS (Intel + Apple Silicon), Windows 10/11, and Linux
• 📱 Mobile app — Capacitor for iOS/iPadOS and Android (MOBILE.md)
• 🌐 Web dashboard — any modern browser, served from the fn dashboard daemon
• 🔌 CLI — fn binary + extension for terminal-first workflows

Start the daemon on any node, connect your other devices, and the board follows you everywhere.

Run an agent company

Import a team. Run it autonomously for weeks. 440+ agents across 16 companies, wired for missions, mailboxes, and inter-agent delegation.

npx companies.sh add paperclipai/companies/gstack

---

Compatible with the tools you already use.

Fusion integrates with the tools you love. Hermes, Paperclip, and OpenClaw all ship as first-class plugins — route any workspace to whichever runtime fits the task. And any Paperclip agent-company imports with a single command.

Hermes _experimental

_{Nous Research}

The open-source autonomous agent from Nous Research. Install the Hermes plugin and run agents through Hermes for long-running, context-growing work — route any Fusion workspace to it.

OpenClaw _experimental

OpenClaw runtime support is available as an experimental plugin (fusion-plugin-openclaw-runtime) for runtime discovery/configuration parity. Configure agents with runtimeConfig.runtimeHint: "openclaw" after installing the plugin.

Paperclip _experimental

_{paperclip.ing}

The human control plane for AI labor. Install the Paperclip plugin to run agents through Paperclip inside Fusion.

Fusion also natively supports the companies.sh agent-company standard: import a prebuilt team — 440+ agents across 16 companies — and let them coordinate over Fusion's mailbox, missions, and workflow gates for weeks of autonomous work. Same company format, same agents, same skills as Paperclip.

npx companies.sh add paperclipai/companies/gstack

Hermes, Paperclip, and OpenClaw are experimental runtime plugins — APIs and wire formats may shift between minor releases.

Quick start

Zero install, straight from npm:

npx runfusion.ai

That launches the dashboard. Subcommands forward through: npx runfusion.ai task create "fix X", npx runfusion.ai --help, etc. (Or verbosely: npx @runfusion/fusion dashboard.)

One-line installer (macOS & Linux — auto-picks Homebrew, falls back to npm):

curl -fsSL https://runfusion.ai/install.sh | sh
fusion dashboard

Homebrew (macOS & Linux):

brew tap runfusion/fusion
brew install fusion
fusion dashboard            # or: fn dashboard

Or as a one-liner (auto-taps): brew install runfusion/fusion/fusion.

npm global:

npm install -g @runfusion/fusion
fn dashboard                # or: fusion dashboard

From a clone (for development):

pnpm dev dashboard

Then click the Open: URL printed in the terminal. It embeds a bearer token (http://localhost:4040/?token=fn_...) that the browser captures to localStorage on first visit and reuses automatically thereafter. On the server side, Fusion now persists the dashboard/daemon token in ~/.fusion/settings.json on first authenticated run and reuses it on later starts unless you override it (--token, FUSION_DASHBOARD_TOKEN, FUSION_DAEMON_TOKEN) or disable auth with --no-auth. See CLI reference → fn dashboard → Authentication for full precedence and reset/revocation options.

First-run setup

On first launch, Fusion opens the onboarding wizard with three guided steps:

1. AI Setup — Use a simplified quick-start provider list (recommended providers plus any already-connected providers), then expand Advanced provider settings only if you need additional providers or setup details. You only need one provider to get started. Deprecated Google Gemini CLI / Antigravity provider entries are intentionally hidden; Google/Gemini API key, Google Generative AI, Vertex, and Cloud Code paths remain supported.
2. GitHub (Optional) — Connect GitHub for issue import and PR management
3. First Task — Create your first task or import from GitHub (if no project is active, onboarding first prompts you to register/select a project directory)

The wizard is dismissible and non-blocking — click Skip for now to use the dashboard immediately. Re-trigger it later from Settings → Authentication → Reopen onboarding guide.

Core features

• AI Planning — Planning agent generates detailed PROMPT.md with steps, file scope, and acceptance criteria
• Step-by-step Execution — Plan → Review → Execute → Review cycle for each task step
• Git Worktree Isolation — Each task runs in its own worktree (fusion/{task-id} branch)
• Workflow Steps — Configurable quality gates (pre-merge: blocks merge; post-merge: informational)
• GitHub Integration — Import issues, create PRs, real-time PR/issue badges
• Dashboard — Real-time kanban board, agent management, terminal, git manager, mission planner
• Missions — Hierarchical planning (Mission → Milestone → Slice → Feature → Task) with autopilot, validation contracts, fix-feature retries, and blocked-handoff semantics
• Multi-Project — Manage multiple projects from a single installation with project isolation
• Inter-Agent Messaging — Built-in messaging for coordination between agents and users

Provider authentication

Fusion supports OAuth-based authentication for AI providers configured via Settings → Authentication. When the dashboard is accessed via a non-localhost host (remote node, LAN host/IP, or reverse proxy), provider login URLs are automatically rewritten to route OAuth callbacks through a bridge endpoint (/api/auth/oauth-callback), ensuring the redirect reaches the active browser session.

• Anthropic (Claude) — Authenticates via the same Settings/onboarding OAuth flow as other OAuth providers
• OpenAI Codex — Authenticates via Settings OAuth flow with secure state validation
• Factory AI — via Droid CLI (optional) — requires local Droid CLI install + droid auth login; detection follows the effective runtime binary path (default droid, or plugin droidBinaryPath when configured), then enable in Settings → Authentication and restart Fusion
• llama.cpp — via HTTP server (optional) — configure your llama.cpp server URL (default http://127.0.0.1:8080) and optional API key, then enable in Settings → Authentication
• Other providers — Authenticate via API key entry in Settings (including Google/Gemini API key, Google Generative AI, Vertex, and Cloud Code aliases)

Model system

Fusion uses a dual-scope model hierarchy with five independent lanes. Global settings define baseline defaults; project settings provide per-project overrides.

Lane	Purpose	Global Baseline Keys	Project Override Keys
Executor	Task execution agent	executionGlobalProvider + executionGlobalModelId	executionProvider + executionModelId
Planning	Task planning agent	planningGlobalProvider + planningGlobalModelId	planningProvider + planningModelId
Validator	Plan/code reviewer	validatorGlobalProvider + validatorGlobalModelId	validatorProvider + validatorModelId
Title Summarization	Auto-title generation	titleSummarizerGlobalProvider + titleSummarizerGlobalModelId	titleSummarizerProvider + titleSummarizerModelId
Workflow Step Refinement	AI prompt refinement	(uses defaultProvider/defaultModelId)	(uses modelProvider/modelId on WorkflowStep)

Per-Task Overrides: Tasks can override the executor, validator, and planning lanes with per-task model fields (modelProvider/modelId, validatorModelProvider/validatorModelId, planningModelProvider/planningModelId).

Precedence: Per-task → Project override → Global lane → defaultProvider/defaultModelId → Automatic resolution.

For full settings documentation, see Settings Reference.

Scheduled tasks / automations

Fusion supports scheduled task automation via the /api/automations endpoints. Automations can run shell commands or multi-step workflows on a configurable schedule.

Scheduling scope

Automations and routines can run in two scopes:

• Global — Runs across all projects. Use this for cross-project maintenance, backups, or unified reporting.
• Project — Runs only within a specific project. Use this for project-specific CI, testing, or deployment tasks.

When you create a schedule without choosing a scope, Fusion defaults to project scope with the default project ID for backward compatibility.

To explicitly target a scope:

• In the dashboard Scheduled Tasks modal, use the Global / Project toggle.
• Via the API, pass ?scope=global or ?scope=project&projectId=<id> on automation/routine endpoints.

Scope resolution rules:

• scope=global always resolves to the global automation/routine lane, independent of the active project.
• scope=project requires a projectId. If omitted, it falls back to "default".
• CRUD, run, toggle, and webhook operations are strictly scope-isolated: a global schedule cannot be mutated from a project-scoped request, and vice versa.

Operational guidance for multi-project setups:

• Prefer global schedules for shared infrastructure (e.g., nightly backups, memory insight extraction).
• Prefer project schedules for per-repository automation (e.g., per-project test runners, deployment hooks).
• Global and project lanes are polled independently by the engine, so due runs in one lane do not block the other.

Automations

Endpoint	Method	Description
/api/automations	GET	List all automations (filtered by scope if specified)
/api/automations	POST	Create automation (scope defaults to project)
/api/automations/:id	GET	Get automation by ID
/api/automations/:id	PATCH	Update automation
/api/automations/:id	DELETE	Delete automation
/api/automations/:id/run	POST	Trigger manual run
/api/automations/:id/toggle	POST	Toggle enabled/disabled
/api/automations/:id/steps/reorder	POST	Reorder automation steps

Routines

Routines are AI agent tasks triggered by cron schedules, webhooks, or manual execution. Routines share the same global/project scope model as automations.

Endpoint	Method	Description
/api/routines	GET	List all routines (filtered by scope if specified)
/api/routines	POST	Create routine (scope defaults to project)
/api/routines/:id	GET	Get routine by ID
/api/routines/:id	PATCH	Update routine
/api/routines/:id	DELETE	Delete routine
/api/routines/:id/run	POST	Manual trigger
/api/routines/:id/trigger	POST	Canonical manual trigger
/api/routines/:id/runs	GET	Get execution history
/api/routines/:id/webhook	POST	Webhook trigger (signature verification supported)
