About
Kody is an MCP server that gives AI agents a portable home for memory, keys, code, and automations on Cloudflare Workers. It offers a compact tool surface with powerful search and execute flows for multi-user personal assistant capabilities.
README
Your assistant's home — the memory, keys, code, and automations your AI agent keeps, portable across every MCP host. Built on Cloudflare Workers.
Kody is your assistant's home—the memory, keys, code, and automations your AI
agent keeps, portable across every MCP host. Built on Cloudflare Workers and the
Model Context Protocol (MCP), it ships a Remix UI, Worker-based request routing,
package runtime plumbing, and OAuth-protected MCP endpoints. The project favors
a compact MCP surface with powerful search and Code Mode execute flows over
a large static tool catalog.
Kody is a multi-user personal assistant: each signed-in user gets a fully isolated assistant (packages, jobs, secrets, values, memories, and related state). Tests and fixtures may seed deterministic local accounts, but no account is privileged at runtime. The repo follows several epicflare starter conventions.
The repo is organized as an Nx monorepo, with shared modules in
packages/shared (@kody-internal/shared), the main app worker under
packages/worker, and mock Workers under packages/mock-servers/*.
Quick Start
npm install
npm run dev
The dev server runs at localhost:3742 by default (the CLI picks the next free
port and prints the resolved URL). Wrangler handles the local Cloudflare Workers
runtime and D1 database automatically.
To scaffold a new project from the epicflare template instead, run
npx create-epicflare.
See docs/contributing/getting-started.md for the full setup paths and expectations. Contributors and agents should start with AGENTS.md for repo-specific guidance.

Tech Stack
| Layer | Technology |
|---|---|
| Runtime | Cloudflare Workers |
| UI Framework | Remix 3 (beta) |
| Package Manager | npm |
| Workspace | Nx + npm workspaces |
| Database | Cloudflare D1 |
| Session/OAuth | Cloudflare KV |
| MCP State | Durable Objects |
| E2E Testing | Playwright |
| Bundler | esbuild |
Scope
- Fair Source personal assistant platform, not a general-purpose agent harness
- MCP-first architecture intended to work across compatible AI agent hosts
- Compact MCP surface area preferred over a large static tool inventory
- ChatGPT is a likely primary host target, while keeping the server usable from other MCP hosts where practical
How It Works
Request → packages/worker/src/index.ts
│
├─→ OAuth handlers
├─→ MCP endpoints
├─→ Static assets (`packages/worker/public/`)
└─→ Server router → Remix components
packages/worker/src/index.tsis the entrypoint for Cloudflare Workers- OAuth requests are handled first, then MCP requests, then static assets
- Non-asset requests fall through to the server handler and router
- Client assets are bundled into
packages/worker/public/and served via theASSETSbinding
