Archon is an artificial intelligence agent automation engine designed to orchestrate complex development workflows. It functions as a platform for chaining multi-step tasks into directed graphs, allowing developers to standardize and execute repeatable coding patterns through declarative configuration files.
The system distinguishes itself by maintaining stateful context across long-running sessions and executing operations within isolated, containerized worktrees to prevent file interference. It integrates with external language models and provides a centralized registry for sharing and installing pre-configured automation tasks across different environments.
The platform supports a broad range of operational capabilities, including cross-platform workflow triggering via messaging and command-line adapters, enterprise-grade secret management, and automated quality evaluation. It is built to deploy across diverse infrastructure, from local containers to edge devices, while providing governance tools for secure team-based access.
