Agent

Ship your code, on autopilot.

An open source agent that lives on your machines 24/7, keeps your apps running, and only pings when it needs a human. All the upside of a PaaS, none of the lock-in.

You can't trust most AI agents with your DevOps. One mistake, and your production is toast. Stakpak is built different:

• Secret Substitution - The LLM works with your credentials without ever seeing them
• Warden Guardrails - Network-level policies block destructive operations before they run
• DevOps Playbooks Baked-in - Curated library of DevOps knowledge in Stakpak Rulebooks

Generate infrastructure code, debug Kubernetes, configure CI/CD, automate deployments, without giving an LLM the keys to production.

🤖 Autopilot (24/7 Autonomous Runtime)

Use the new lifecycle aliases for one-command setup/start/stop:

stakpak up        # alias for: stakpak autopilot up
stakpak down      # alias for: stakpak autopilot down

You can also use the canonical subcommands:

stakpak autopilot up
stakpak autopilot status
stakpak autopilot logs
stakpak autopilot down
stakpak autopilot doctor

#### Autopilot prerequisites

Before running autopilot on a remote VM:

• Docker must be installed and accessible to the current user
• 2GB+ RAM is recommended for reliable autopilot + sandbox runs
• Swap is strongly recommended on small Linux hosts
• Linux user services may require linger to survive logout

stakpak up now runs preflight checks before startup, and stakpak autopilot doctor can be used as a deployment-readiness check before first boot:

stakpak autopilot doctor
stakpak up

#### Unified configuration (profiles + autopilot wiring)

• ~/.stakpak/config.toml: profile behavior (model, allowed_tools, auto_approve, system_prompt, max_turns, provider credentials)
• ~/.stakpak/autopilot.toml: runtime wiring (schedules, channels, service/server settings)

Use profile = "name" on schedules/channels and keep behavior inside profile definitions.

# schedule profile
stakpak autopilot schedule add health --cron '*/5 * * * *' --prompt 'Check health' --profile monitoring

# channel profile
stakpak autopilot channel add slack --bot-token "$SLACK_BOT_TOKEN" --app-token "$SLACK_APP_TOKEN" --profile ops
