A workspace to build, deploy and manage AI agents and workflows.
Cloud-hosted: sim.ai
npx sim-setup- Connect 1,000+ integrations and every major LLM
- Add Slack, Notion, HubSpot, Salesforce, databases, and more
- Build agents visually, conversationally, or with code
- Ingest files, knowledge bases, and structured table data
- Monitor runs, logs, schedules, and workflow activity
Chat and workflows are just the start — tables, files, and knowledge all live in the same workspace.
Tables — a database, built in |
Files — one store for your team and every agent |
Knowledge — your agents' memory |
Requirements: Node.js 20+ and Docker.
npx sim-setup is an interactive wizard that creates a small sim/ deployment directory, provisions the database, generates secrets, writes .env, connects a Chat API key, and starts the published Sim images with Docker Compose. It does not clone the repository.
When it finishes, open http://localhost:3000.
Inside a cloned Sim repository, run bun run sim-setup to unlock the source-only local development and Kubernetes modes.
Reconfigure an optional capability without rerunning the full wizard:
npx sim-setup config
npx sim-setup add email
npx sim-setup add storage
npx sim-setup add sandbox
npx sim-setup add jobs
npx sim-setup add cache
npx sim-setup add knowledge
npx sim-setup add llm
npx sim-setup add integration slacknpx sim-setup config detects the effective local-dev, Docker Compose, or current-context
Helm configuration and reports configured, missing, or invalid capabilities and OAuth
integrations without printing credential values. This is separate from npx sim-setup status,
which reports whether installed services are running and healthy.
Manage your install from its directory:
npx sim-setup start | stop | restart # bring your install up / down / cycle
npx sim-setup update # pull and apply Compose images
npx sim-setup status # what's installed and healthy
npx sim-setup logs # follow logs
npx sim-setup doctor # diagnose configuration problems
npx sim-setup down # remove containers (data kept)
npx sim-setup reset # archive .env and wipe managed dataThe setup package detects how you're running and acts accordingly. Use --dir <path> to create or manage a deployment somewhere other than ./sim.
Sim also supports local models via Ollama and vLLM. See the self-hosting docs for details.
Chat is a Sim-managed service. npx sim-setup connects a Chat API key for you — sign in when it opens your browser and the key is stored automatically. To view, create, or revoke keys later, go to sim.ai/selfhost/settings/chat-keys.
See the environment variables reference for the full list, or apps/sim/.env.example for defaults.
