Stack

Layer Tech
Frontend Next.js 16 (App Router)
Backend Go (Chi router, sqlc, gorilla/websocket)
Database PostgreSQL 17 with pgvector
Agent runtime Local daemon executing user-installed CLI
Streaming WebSocket (gorilla/websocket)

Supported agent CLIs (built-in providers)

Eleven listed in docs, ten in the README — minor doc drift. Authoritative list per Welcome:

Claude Code · Codex · Cursor · Copilot · Gemini · Hermes · Kimi · Kiro CLI · OpenCode · OpenClaw · Pi

The daemon auto-detects whichever of these are on PATH. Each is a "provider" the agent can be configured against.

Deployment shapes

Shape What When
Multica Cloud Managed backend, user installs CLI + daemon locally, connects to multica.ai server Waitlist as of 2026-04-28
Self-host (Docker) Docker Compose, full backend on user's infra Documented + recommended for regulated teams
Self-host (Kubernetes / Helm) Full backend on user's k8s Mentioned, doc URL not captured
Desktop app Native multi-tab window, CLI built-in, daemon starts on launch "Recommended" per docs
❓

license. The README doesn't state it inline; the GitHub repo would have a LICENSE file. Apache 2.0 or MIT are the standard guesses for OSS-first projects of this shape.

Developer surface

What's NOT advertised

❓

whether Multica integrates with MCP servers, and whether agents can call HTTP endpoints with auth (relevant for HTTP 402 / MPP integration).

Strategic note for CreateOS

💭

Multica's daemon-on-user-machine architecture means CreateOS could integrate as a "cloud runtime" — a Multica-compatible runtime endpoint that runs agents in CreateOS sandboxes, settles via MPP, and reports task progress over WebSocket back to Multica. This is a clean partnership shape and a Tier 2 BD candidate (see CreateOS - BD Targets).
