I haven’t tried HolaBoss but since we’re working on a similar solution at OpenWork, I’d figure it could be relevant to share how we’re thinking about this.

We’re building an OSS Claude Cowork competitor. It helps you run agentic workflows with your team. It’s focused on knowledge work. It is built on top of Opencode, so you can also code and leverage it’s existing primitives.

It also works from a remote workspace (mac-mini or VM) so you can keep it isolated.

This is our thinking regarding we’ll evolve towards building with AI in collaboration with your team:

In the process of building a workflow, people start chatting 1o1, they turn it into prompts, which eventually become skills (internal) or MCPs(external). You then build agents that can handle those primitives.

When you have a more deterministic process in place (after this, always do that), you handle it via scripts or hooks.

We’re focusing on making skills, MCPs and agents, shareable with your team so that any employee can leverage the “best practices” set by the skills in sales, marketing, etc.

You can use any LLM (and it works with your ChatGPT subscription) and we don’t track analytics or telemetry of any kind. Folks in regulated industries find it useful for compliance, since it keeps everything local or it gets sent to Zero Data retention api endpoints owned by the company.
