v0.4.4 fixes the bug that silently broke agent-to-agent messaging on Windows, starts hive services on the very first run, rebuilds dark mode so you can read it, and adds a 227-skill catalog, a Prerequisites page, and designed release notes.
OFFYCE finished #5 Product of the Day on Product Hunt — ahead of DeepSeek's harness launch that day. Here's what actually happened: the numbers, the people who showed up, and the two pieces of feedback we're already shipping fixes for.
Between August 11 and August 18 we shipped seven releases: memory condensation that finally works, an update checker, a whole new brand, a public telemetry contract, ten engines named honestly, and the Windows fix. The full tour.
OFFYCE has a Discord now. Come watch releases land, get help with your floor, and earn the most thematically necessary contributor role in open source.
We launched across ten subreddits, collected 2,233 combined upvotes and 516 comments, and then read every single one. What landed, what got roasted, and what we shipped because of it.
Everything that shipped between v0.3.3 and v0.3.7 — a Michael who knows the floor and runs the app by voice, a git time-machine in the IDE, nine agent engines, a queue that respects your draft, Node that installs itself, and the auto-update bug that had been silently broken since the day we shipped it.
OFFYCE shipped auto-update in v0.3.4 and it silently never worked in a single packaged build. The cause was one destructuring assignment across the CommonJS/ESM boundary — and a catch block that threw the evidence away. Here's how we found it, and what v0.3.7 changes.
The v0.3.4 + v0.3.5 wave: voice orchestration with live floor context and full app control, markdown previews everywhere, commit history and branch compare in the built-in IDE, a six-tab Settings redesign, xAI Grok and Kimi Code engines, auto-update, and a queue that always has an escape hatch.
An honest comparison of YC's qm and OFFYCE: both orchestrate fleets of CLI coding agents with security postures, scheduled background work, and Slack — one as a headless multiplayer harness for teams, one as a local-first desktop office with real terminals, voice, and a built-in IDE.
OFFYCE v0.3.3 adds a full Monaco IDE — file tree, editor tabs, save, and side-by-side git diffs of your agents' changes — plus GitHub Copilot CLI as a first-class agent engine, our first community-contributed provider.
OFFYCE v0.3.2 adds Realtime Michael — a low-latency voice channel to the GOD orchestrator. Talk to Michael and he listens, answers, and acts: reading the hive and, behind spoken echo-back confirmation, dispatching, spawning, and steering the floor in real time.
OFFYCE v0.3.1 runs your agent floor on open-weight models — gpt-oss, Qwen3, DeepSeek, Llama, Mistral, GLM, Kimi — either fully local (Ollama/LM Studio/vLLM) or through a third-party OSS provider. Here's how to wire each across the OpenCode, Crush, and pi engines.
OFFYCE v0.3.0 makes every hire — and Michael himself — a pluggable engine, adds an integrations registry with a write-only secret broker, and lets the god orchestrator spawn an ephemeral worker straight from Slack.
OFFYCE v0.2.8 ships Shareable Hires: a one-click, portable agent role manifest + The Hiring Fair gallery. Click a hire link, review every field, then spawn it yourself.
Why agent roles should be portable: what a hire manifest encodes, how one-click hiring stays safe, and how The Hiring Fair turns tacit setup into a shareable artifact.
How OFFYCE's blog is written by an automated writer agent in the hive — drafts in a worktree, single-committer integration, Eleventy build, human-gated deploy. Build your own.
A how-to for standing up a fully automated PR-reviewing agent in OFFYCE — one that reads your real source (not just the PR description), de-dupes noise, and only escalates what matters. With a real triage run that turned 22 duplicate firings into a clean v0.2.5 patch queue.
OFFYCE v0.2.4 is here: Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and Antigravity (Gemini) agents now run as one hive with full parity — no API keys, no setup. Brief a GOD orchestrator, automate basically anything in one prompt, and close the lid while it keeps working.
OFFYCE v0.2.0 is here: a Command Center overhaul, per-agent token budgets, live OpenTelemetry observability, a circuit breaker, durable SQLite persistence, and a big round of community fixes.
How a single prompt to the OFFYCE god agent reviewed all open PRs and set up a recurring hourly PR reviewer — while the repo was blowing up with 400+ stars.
Agents touch your code, keys, and memory. That's why agent tooling should be open source and local-first — so you can verify it, not just trust it.
The origin story of OFFYCE — how the pain of juggling Claude Code terminals led to a coordinated, memory-backed hive of agents you can watch.
