# staff.rip

> AI agent workspace that lets designers, PMs, and clients ship changes in plain language while keeping your code on your own infrastructure.

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 setup` to 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.*
