This page is for people using the Buzz desktop app from block/buzz. The new Buzz app lives here, in block/buzz-app. It adds plugins and remote agents.
Download the latest release from buzz.xyz or view all releases. Available for macOS, Windows and Linux.
The old app's updater does not deliver the new app, so this is a fresh install.
Buzz is now built on plugins, so anyone can make it work the way they want. The core of the app is made of plugins too:
- Messages: channels, direct messages and threads.
- Agents: where you create and manage agents.
- Claude and Codex: each agent integration is its own plugin.
- Huddles: audio conversations.
Plugins you add use the same building blocks, so they can go as far as the built-in ones.
Close your laptop and your agent keeps working. A remote agent runs on a hosted machine instead of your computer, so it can still answer when Buzz is closed.
Builderlab, the hosted service built into Buzz, runs these agents. You sign in with a Builderlab account to use them.
Local agents still work as before.
