C5 · DOCUMENTATION
A self-hosted AI agent platform
Growther.ai C5 is a complete AI-agent runtime that ships as one self-contained executable — no Node, no Docker, no dependency chase. Multi-agent orchestration, safe tool use, and a self-improving workflow, running entirely on your machine with encrypted local storage and zero required cloud dependency.
Optionally supercharged by Mothership, the Growther.ai cloud.
