Comma: open-source 24/7 personal agent that runs background tasks to completion
FellMentKE · x · 2026-10-09
Comma is an open-source, sessionless personal agent positioned as a 24/7 teammate rather than a chatbot. Instead of guiding every step in a chat window, it turns requests into full background tasks executed to completion across connected apps, your local machine, and its own cloud environment.
Highlights:
- Writes morning briefings on what needs attention in Gmail, Slack, and Linear, pausing only for key decisions in a review board
- Manage tasks remotely via Signal or Telegram
- Records meetings into automatic action plans
- Maintains long-term context across sessions
Now open source — a useful reference for anyone studying autonomous agent orchestration and long-term memory design.
