What it does
Autonomous tasks
Plans the task, calls tools, reads and writes files, runs commands, and finishes complex workflows on its own.
Self-improving
After a complex run, Abu offers to save it as a skill. Review it once and reuse it next time.
Skills
Covers Office documents, design, browser automation, coding help and more.
Connectors
Connects to databases, search engines, GitHub and other services through MCP.
Automation
Scheduled tasks and triggers respond to HTTP calls, file changes, time, or IM messages.
Computer use
Reads the screen and controls the keyboard and mouse to operate desktop apps directly.
Plan mode
For risky steps such as deleting, overwriting, sending or installing, Abu shows a step-by-step plan and waits for your OK.
Multi-agent
The lead agent hands well-scoped sub-tasks to other agents, which work independently and report back.
