About staff.rip
staff.rip is an AI-powered workspace that bridges the gap between hosted AI tools and local AI CLIs — giving non-developers a chat-first interface to ship changes while keeping code on the developer's own infrastructure. The agent daemon (staffrip-agent) runs as a Node.js process on your laptop, VPS, or CI runner, so your repository never leaves your environment. Designers, PMs, and clients can describe changes in plain language via a floating widget or chat interface, while engineers review PRs instead of triaging tickets.
- Agent Daemon (staffrip-agent) — Run
npx staffrip-agent setupto connect your local filesystem to your cloud workspace; the daemon self-updates via a versioned symlink. - Frontend Helper — Embed a lightweight JS widget on any running page (local dev, staging, Vercel preview) so non-developers can click any element and describe a change.
- MCP-Native API — Every workspace primitive (boards, tasks, chat, files, workers, tunnels) is exposed as an MCP server at
POST /api/mcp, compatible with any Claude-powered tool or IDE extension. - Bring Your Own AI Key — Plug in Anthropic, OpenAI, or any supported provider key per organisation, connect an existing Claude account, or use the bundled staff.rip provider.
- Spaces & Workers — Each Space is a project directory with its own agent, board, chat history, file store, and tunnel; Workers are running agent daemons that bridge Spaces to your filesystem.
- Tunnels & VPS — Provision Scaleway VPS instances and secure tunnels directly from the dashboard; Pro includes one tunnel and one DEV1-S VPS per seat.
- Reseller Dashboard — Agencies can manage downstream client organisations, set client pricing, and cap workers/spaces/tunnels per client org.
- Enterprise Self-Hosting — Deploy the full stack (agent runtime, ws-server, anthropic-proxy, control plane, tunnel server) on AWS, GCP, or on-prem via Terraform, Helm, or Docker Compose.
- Access Controls — SSO (SAML, OIDC) + RBAC, audit logs, SOC 2 & GDPR DPA compliance reports, and custom data residency available on Enterprise.
