What is VibeControls?

VibeControls is a unified developer control plane and Internal Developer Platform that orchestrates the environments, terminal sessions, agents, sandboxes, tunnels, AI assistants, plugins, catalog, templates, and operational workflows a developer or team uses every day. Modern engineers juggle three to five environments at once — local, staging, production, client servers, sandbox VMs — and most tools either lock you into the cloud or leave you wiring up tmux, SSH, and a pile of brittle scripts by hand. VibeControls sits in the middle with an agent-based architecture that runs anywhere and a plugin ecosystem for everything else.

One console for every machine, agent, terminal, tunnel, sandbox, and AI assistant your team runs. You install a lightweight agent on any target, spin up reproducible project contexts called vibes, share live terminal sessions with teammates, expose local services through governed tunnels, and let AI agents handle the boring parts in isolated sandboxes — local laptop to global production, all under one workspace identity and one audit trail.

Because VibeControls is built on the Burdenoff platform, it is workspace-scoped from day one: every agent, vibe, session, note, and document belongs to a workspace, so RBAC, audit, billing, quotas, SSO, notifications, i18n, and accessibility come built in rather than bolted on later. Its agent-first foundation gives it a live signal from every developer's machine — the platform sees what is actually running, not just what is declared.

Vibe agents & multi-environment targets

And more

Workflow automation & scheduling

The Vibe Deck gives you a grid of one-click buttons for scripts, commands, and webhooks; the Vibe Calendar runs cron-style scheduled tasks directly on the agent — webhooks, scripts, AI prompts, backups — with logs, history, and retries, and no separate scheduler service to operate.

Team collaboration & workspaces

Share vibes and sessions with view, edit, or admin permissions; collaborate in shared team workspaces; comment inline on vibes, sessions, and notes via Conversations; and rely on workspace-wide tagging, search, and export — all scoped by fine-grained RBAC.

AI orchestration hub (BYOK)

Per-vibe AI contexts with project files and system prompts, a reusable prompt library, a task queue with status, logs, and token/latency stats, and a single interface over 16+ providers (Claude, Codex, Copilot, Gemini, Cursor, Aider, Amp, Goose, Plandex, OpenCode, OpenRouter, Ollama, MiniMax, and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint). VibeControls never resells inference — you bring your own key and see exactly what each call costs.

AI Assistant, AI Builder & Plan mode

An in-product assistant reads your project context and takes governed actions under your identity with automatic multi-provider fallback. AI Builder generates Vibe plugins, actions, and integrations from natural language with sandbox-backed testing. Plan mode produces a structured, reviewable plan — annotated and approved in Plannotator — before any high-blast-radius tool call fires.

MCP server & programmable surfaces

An MCP server exposes tools, resources, and prompts to Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and any MCP-compatible agent. The same API is reachable from the web app, desktop (Electron) and mobile (Capacitor) apps, CLI with TUI, Chrome extension, VS Code extension, and Node and Python SDKs — every capability from every surface, with one identity and audit trail.

Software catalog, templates & per-vibe docs

A typed software catalog binds components to the vibes where work actually happens, so it stays in sync with reality; templates scaffold new components, vibes, and sandboxes from approved starting points; and per-vibe documentation sites with an asynchronous builder, revisions, and embedded docs keep knowledge next to the project. Per-vibe LLM Context mints signed, scoped, expiring, audited URLs to safely point external LLMs at a governed slice of your project.

How it works

1

Install the agent

Install the lightweight VibeControls agent on your local machine, remote server, or cloud instance in seconds — up and running in three commands via npm or a one-line shell installer.

2

Connect & configure

Sign in, create a DIRECT or SSH target, and the agent registers itself — VibeControls provisions its credentials automatically. Add your projects as vibes and install plugins from the marketplace.

3

Onboard the rest of your fleet

From an existing agent, add SSH targets for remote servers; one click installs the agent remotely, inherits credentials, and joins the topology graph — local, staging, production, and client machines under one console.

4

Control everything

Manage terminals, tunnels, sessions, schedules, AI tasks, and team access from a single unified dashboard. Open browser terminals, build Vibe Deck buttons, and schedule jobs in the Vibe Calendar.

5

Let agents work, keep humans in the loop

AI agents deploy code into isolated sandboxes, run tests through local tunnels, and request human-in-the-loop terminal approval before promoting to alpha or prod — every step RBAC-checked and audited.

Frequently asked questions

Conservative defaults throughout: AES-256-GCM at rest for agent-local storage and control-plane secrets, TLS/WSS in transit with tunnels terminating at the network edge, RBAC enforced at the gateway, per-agent rotatable credentials with no shared secrets between machines, and an immutable audit log of every mutation. The agent itself is open source so you can read it and pin releases.
